Resumo
Introdução: A hipertensão está associada a doenças cardiovasculares, mas também com alterações na qualidade óssea. A hipertensão, portanto, pode ser um fator de risco para a osseointegração. Estudos pré-clínicos sugerem que o losartan, um bloqueador dos receptores da angiotensina II amplamente utilizado para tratar a hipertensão, tem um efeito benéfico na consolidação do enxerto. No entanto, o efeito da hipertensão e do losartan na osteointegração permanece desconhecido. Material e Métodos: Aqui utilizamos ratos ratas espontaneamente hipertensivos (SHR) e ratos Wistar albinus normotensos que receberam losartan (30 mg / kg, p.o.) ou não tratados. Após uma semana, mini-implantes de titânio foram inseridos na tíbia. Sessenta dias após a implantação, a estabilidade do implante foi avaliada pela medição de torque de remoção considerada o ponto final primário. A tomografia computadorizada micro e a análise histomorfométrica foram parâmetros secundários. Resultados: o Losartan aumentou o torque de remoção no grupo SHR hipertenso para os níveis dos controles Wistar. Enquanto os parâmetros corticais da osseointegração permaneceram inalterados, losartan aumentaram a formação do osso medular. A micro tomografia computorizada revelou maior volume ósseo por volume de tecido e espessura trabecular nos ratos SHR tratados com losartan. A análise histomorfométrica mostrou ainda que o losartan aumentou significativamente a espessura do osso recém-formado na área medular em ratos SHR hipertensos. O losartan não alterou significativamente os parâmetros de osseointegração em ratos normotensos. Conclusões: Os dados apresentados sugerem que o antagonista dos receptores da angiotensina II losartan aumenta os parâmetros medulares da osseointegração no modelo da tíbia de ratos espontaneamente hipertensos.
Background: Hypertension is associated with cardiovascular diseases but also with alterations in bone quality. Hypertension therefore might be a risk factor for osseointegration. Preclinical studies suggest that losartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker widely used to treat hypertension, has a beneficial effect in graft consolidation. However, the effect of hypertension and losartan on osseointegration remains unknown. Methods: Here we used spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive Wistar albinus rats receiving losartan (30 mg/kg, p.o.) or left untreated. After one week, titanium miniscrews were inserted into the tibia. Sixty days after implantation, implant stability was evaluated by removal torque measurement considered the primary endpoint. Micro computed tomography and histomorphometric analysis were secondary endpoints. Results: Losartan increased the removal torque in the hypertensive SHR group to levels of the Wistar controls. While the cortical parameters of osseointegration remained unchanged, losartan increased medullary bone formation. Micro computed tomography revealed a higher bone volume per tissue volume and trabecular thickness in the SHR rats treated with losartan. Histomorphometric analysis further showed that losartan significantly increased the thickness of newly formed bone in medullary area in hypertensive SHR rats. Losartan did not significantly alter the parameters of osseointegration in normotensive rats. Conclusions: The data presented suggest that the angiotensin II receptor antagonist losartan increases the medullary parameters of osseointegration in a tibia model of spontaneously hypertensive rats.
