| Abstract | |
Stress and tooth loss have an impact on the masticatory muscles favoring the pain. However, the pathogenesis involved is still little understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of varied chronic stress in left masseter muscle of rats subjected to unilateral alteration by occlusal tooth extraction, alone or associated, through evaluation of total gelatinolytic activities and myeloperoxidase, morphological analysis, histochemical, immunohistochemical labeling and transmission electron microscope. Twenty male Wistar rats, young adults, weighing ± 200 g, were divided randomly into four groups (n=5): GI control without occlusal alteration and without varied chronic stress (EV), G II-occlusal alteration isolated, G III EV isolated and G IV-occlusal alteration associated with the EV. The rats from groups of dental extraction (GII and G IV) were previously anesthetized and had the superior left molars extracted. The groups of stresses (G III and G IV) were submitted to different stressors from the 14th day after the tooth extraction. All the animals were euthanized on the 24th day. On the surface, the beam analysis of results showed that the masseter muscle, dental extraction and the EV, alone or associated with not promoted the infiltration of polymorphonuclear scanned through the myeloperoxidase and not altered levels of metalloproteinases (MMP-2) evaluated by means of Total Gelatinase activity. In the anterior bundle of masseter muscle located evaluated through the Total Gelatinase activity. In anterior bundle of the deep masseter muscle, the dental extraction and the EV, alone or associated with altered, in some regions, the histological characteristics of the fibers revealed by hematoxylin and eosin staining; the ultrastructure of mitochondria in the transmission electron microscope; revealed areas with reduced lumen, and lumen distended in other capillaries marked with anti-laminina antibody; showed a tendency to increase in the density of capillaries labelled by endothelium, CD31 anti-alpha and have not altered the scarce labelled fibers by myosin type I in the same bundle, decreased levels of reactive oxygen species in the group exposed to dental extraction (GII). The average bundle of deep masseter muscle later, experimental protocols confirmed the prevalence of clear fibers by means of Immunohistochemistry reaction of succinate dehydrogenase. We can conclude that the masseter muscle change resulting from regional expressed left dental extraction and EV alone or associated, revealed by morphological, ultrastructural, and hemodynamic oxidative stress, especially in deep beam. These data contribute to the understanding of the development of the trigger point. However, further studies are needed to better understanding of the pathogenesis of myofascial pain and temporomandibular joint dysfunction and its relation with occlusal stress and occlusial alteration (AU) | |
