Resumo
INTRODUÇÃO: As alterações em gengiva induzidas por medicamentos têm sido pouco estudadas quanto à expressão in vivo dos genes das metoloproteinases (MMPs). O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar o padrão histológico de distribuição de fibras colágenas após a administração de ciclosporina, nifedipina ou fenitoína e correlacionar com a expressão dos genes do colágeno do tipo I, MMP-1 e MMP2. MATERIAL E MÉTODO: Amostras da gengiva da área de canino superior direito foram obtidas de doze macacos prego (Cebus apella) machos. A extremidade mesial de cada amostra foi imediatamente congelada em nitrogênio líquido enquanto que a distal foi processada para inclusão em parafina. Após uma semana, os animais foram divididos em três grupos que receberam doses diárias de ciclosporina, fenitoína ou nifedipina, durante 120 dias. Procedeu-se à remoção de amostras da gengiva da área do canino superior esquerdo de dois animais de cada grupo aos 52 e 120 dias. Os cortes histológicos foram corados pelas técnicas da hematoxilina e eosina, vermelho picrosirius, além da marcação imunoistoquímica para colágeno do tipo IV. O RT-PCR semiquantitativo foi realizado para se determinar os níveis de mRNA. RESULTADOS: No grupo controle, houve o predomínio de fibras colágenas maduras, evidenciadas com a cor vermelha em cortes corados pela técnica do vermelho picrosirius analisados com microscópio de luz polarizada. Observou-se nos grupos tratados aos 52 e 120 dias um aumento da porcentagem de áreas ocupadas por fibras imaturas, em todos os grupos, independentemente da idade do animal. No entanto, não foram observadas diferenças morfológicas entre os grupos controle e tratado nos cortes corados pela hematoxilina e eosina. Houve uma tendência a valores médios mais baixos...
Background: Few studies have focused on the in vivo expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) genes in gingival changes induced by drugs. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the histological pattern of collagen fiber distribution after phenytoin, cyclosporine or nifedipine medication and correlate with collagen type 1, MMP-1 and MMP-2 gene expression levels. Methods: Gingival samples were obtained from superior right canine area of twelve male capuchin monkeys (Cebus apella). The mesial part of the biopsy specimens was immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen, while the distal one was processed for paraffin inclusion. One week after the control biopsy, the animals were divided in three groups that received daily doses of cyclosporine, phenytoin or nifedipine during 120 days. Gingival samples were obtained from left superior canine area on 52nd and 120th day of treatment (two animal of each experimental group). Histologic sections were subjected to hematoxylin and eosin, picrosirius red stainings, and to immunohistochemical reaction for collagen type IV. MMP-1, MMP-2 and collagen type I mRNA levels were determined by RT-PCR. Results: Predominance of mature collagen fibers was observed in the control group after picrosirius red staining, visualized as red fibers under polarized microscope. Increased percentage of areas occupied by immature collagen fibers was observed on 52 and 120 experimental periods, in all groups, despite the animal age. However, no morphological differences between treated and control groups were observed on hematoxilin and eosin stained sections. There was a trend to lower levels of MMP-1 expression on 52-day samples. However, MMP-2 and collagen type I gene expressions seemed to be phased and drug-related. Conclusions: The results allowed the ...(Complete abstract click electronic access below)
