ANÁLISE HISTOMORFOMÉTRICA DAS RESPOSTAS BIOLÓGICAS APÓS UTILIZAÇÃO DE HIDROXIAPATITA PURA (UEPG) E HIDROXIAPATITA COM COLÁGENO (UEPG), EM CONJUNTIVO SUBCUTÂNEO DE DORSO E EM DEFEITO CRÍTICO EM CALVÁRIA: ESTUDO EM RATOS / Histomorphometric analysis of biological responses following the use of pure hydroxyapatite (UEPG) and hydroxypatite with collagen (UEPG), in subcutaneous dorsal connective tissue and in critical defects in calvaria: studies in rats

No. of bitstreams: 1 Fabio Goiris.pdf: 7029571 bytes, checksum: 63e1790a8a36324e4ac324716fcd8ddd (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-02-15 / The objective of this study was to evaluate in vivo two new biomaterials for bone substitution – pure hydroxyapatite and collagen hydroxyapatite – aiming at determining their biocompatibility in soft tissues and their ability to enable bone neoformation in critical size defects in rats’ calvaria. Both types of synthetic hydroxyapatite were developed by the Chemistry department of the State University of Ponta Grossa – Pure hydroxyapatite (HaP) and Hydroxyapatite with collagen (HCol). The third synthetic hydroxyapatite used as a comparing element was the commercial hydroxyapatite Alobone® (HaAl), which is available in the Brazilian market. Experiment 1 was carried out with the animals’ dorsal connective tissue and used 45 Wistar female rats, divided randomly into three groups of 15 animals each (HaP, HaCol and HaAl) which were euthanized after 7, 15 and 30 days of operation.The histomorphometric exam after 30 days revealed the absence of inflammatory cell characteristic infiltrates and the presence of non-inflammatory collagen fibers. These results show the biocompatibility of the material implanted. Experiment 2 used 60 Wistar rats divided randomly into 4 groups (Group 1, HaP; Group 2, HaCol; Group 3, HaAl and Group 4, Control). Critical size defects of 8mm were performed in the calvaria and the three biomaterials were implanted. All groups also received collagen membrane. On day 30, inflammatory response on the defect was practically absent in all groups, mainly when compared to the period of 7 days. Some areas of bone neoformation were seen. There was predominance of osteoblasts, osteocytes and macrophages in lower amount. Regarding the radiographic aspect, after 30 days our study confirmed a marked biodegradation of the hydroxyapatite and signs of bone neoformation. The histomorphometric results of the synthetic hydroxyapatite implant demonstrated the probable occurrence of intramembranous ossification from the granulation tissue with the presence of bone-resident macrophages. It was possible to conclude that the results of our study in vivo can be used as a preliminary source of information about biocompatibility, biodegradability and bone neoformation from the implant of new biomaterials in vivo. / O objetivo desta pesquisa foi avaliar in vivo dois novos biomateriais de substituição óssea - hidroxiapatita pura e hidroxiapatita com colágeno - visando determinar a sua biocompatibilidade em tecidos moles e a sua capacidade de possibilitar a neoformação óssea em defeitos críticos em calvária de ratas. As duas formas de hidroxiapatitas sintéticas – Hidroxiapatita pura (HaP) e Hidroxiapatita com colágeno (HACol) - foram desenvolvidas pelo departamento de Química da Universidade Estadual de Ponta Grossa. A terceira hidroxiapatita sintética utilizada como elemento de comparação foi a hidroxiapatita comercial Alobone® (HaAl), disponível no mercado brasileiro. O experimento 1 realizado em conjuntivo de dorso de animais, utilizou 45 ratas fêmeas da espécie Wistar, divididos aleatoriamente em três grupos de 15 (HaP, HaCol e HaAl) e que sofreram eutanásia aos 7, 15 e 30 dias do pósoperatório. O exame histomorfométrico aos 30 dias verificou-se ausência do infiltrado característico de células inflamatórias e presença de fibras colágenas não inflamatórias. Estes resultados significam biocompatibilidade dos materiais implantados. O Experimento 2 utilizou 60 ratas Wistar divididos aleatoriamente em 4 grupos (Grupo 1, HaP; Grupo 2 HaCol, Grupo 3 HaAl) e Grupo 4, Controle). Realizaram-se defeitos críticos de 8 mm em calvária e a seguir colocaram-se os três tipos de biomateriais. Todos os grupos receberam também membrana de colágeno. Aos 30 dias, observou-se praticamente uma ausência da resposta inflamatória no local do defeito em todos os grupos, especialmente quando comparado ao período de 7 dias. Verificaram-se áreas de neoformação óssea. Houve predominância de osteoblastos, osteócitos e macrófagos em menor quantidade. No aspecto radiográfico, em 30 dias, a nossa pesquisa confirmou uma marcada biodegradação das hidroxiapatitas e sinais de neoformação óssea. Os resultados histomorfométricos da implantação de hidroxiapatitas sintéticas demonstraram a ocorrência de uma ossificação intramembranosa a partir do tecido de granulação com a participação de macrófagos ósseo-residentes. É possível concluir que os resultados dessa pesquisa podem ser utilizados como recurso preliminar de informações sobre biocompatibilidade, biodegradabilidade e neoformação óssea a partir da implantação de novos biomateriais in vivo.

Soft Tissue Calcification Secondary to Imatinib Mesylate in a Patient with Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor

Enck, Robert E., Abushahin, Fadi, Bossaer, John B. 14 May 2013 (has links)
Imatinib mesylate has been associated with the changes in bone turnover. We report a case of the development of tissue calcification in a patient on long-term therapy with this drug. A 48-year-old male patient with gastrointestinal stromal tumor and liver metastasis complained of abdominal pain. His treatment included hepatic artery chemoembolization and partial hepatectomy in addition to chronic imatinib mesylate for 4 years. On physical examination, he had a peritoneal mass just beneath the laparotomy incision scar that, after resection, was found to be dystrophic bone formation. Based on the previous studies suggesting bone changes due to chronic therapy with imatinib mesylate, we believe that the patient's new bone formation was causally related to the use of this drug. To our knowledge, there are no similar reported cases in the literature.
