Beneficial effects of benzodiazepine on masticatory muscle dysfunction induced by chronic stress and occlusal instability in an experimental animal study. Sci Rep 2020; 10:8787.

Abstract
Psychological stress and occlusal alteration are important etiologic factors for temporomandibular/masticatory muscular disorders. In particular, the exact physiologic mechanism underlying the relation by occlusal alteration and temporomandibular disorders remains unclear. Our purpose was to test the hypothesis that benzodiazepine therapy is able to prevent metabolic and vascular changes in the medial pterygoid muscle of rats under chronic stress after 14 days of unilateral exodontia. Adult Wistar rats were submitted to unpredictable chronic mild stress (10 days) and/or unilateral exodontia and their plasma and medial pterygoid muscles were removed for analysis. A pre-treatment with diazepam was used to verify its effect on stress. The parameters evaluated included anxiety behavior, plasma levels of corticosterone, metabolic activity by succinate dehydrogenase, capillary density by laminin staining and ultrastructural findings by transmission electron microscopy. Occlusal instability induced anxiety-like behavior on elevated plus-maze test and diazepam administration blocked the appearance of this behavior. Unilateral exodontia promoted in the contralateral muscle an increase of oxidative fibers and capillaries and modification of sarcoplasmic reticulum. Chronic stress caused increased glycolytic metabolism, reduced capillary density and morphological changes in mitochondria on both sides. Association of both factors induced a glycolytic pattern in muscle and hemodynamic changes. Pharmacological manipulation with diazepam inhibited the changes in the medial pterygoid muscle after stress. Our results reveal a preventive benzodiazepine treatment for stress and occlusal instability conditions affecting masticatory muscle disorders. In addition, provide insights into the mechanisms by which chronic stress and exodontia might be involved in the pathophysiology of masticatory muscular dysfunctions.

Tooth extraction and subsequent dental implant placement in Sprague-Dawley rats induce differential changes in anterior digastric myofibre size and myosin heavy chain isoform expression. Arch Oral Biol 2019; 99:141-149. [PMID: 30684691 DOI: 10.1016/j.archoralbio.2019.01.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2018] [Revised: 12/22/2018] [Accepted: 01/15/2019] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE to determine if tooth loss and dental implant placement in rats induce changes in the morphological and histochemical features of the Anterior Digastric muscle. DESIGN Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats had their right maxillary molar teeth extracted. 'Extraction-1' and 'Extraction-2 groups were sacrificed, respectively, 4 or 8 weeks later, and an Implant group had an implant placement 2 weeks after the molar extraction, and rats were sacrificed 3 weeks later (n = 4/group). Naive rats (n = 3) had no treatment. Morphometric and immunohistochemical techniques quantified Anterior Digastric muscle myofibres' cross-sectional area (CSA) and myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoform proportions. Significant ANOVAs were followed by post-hoc tests; p < 0.05 and 0.1 were considered to reflect levels of statistical significance. RESULTS In naïve rats, the peripheral regions of the Anterior Digastric muscle was dominated by MyHC-IIx/b isoform and there were no MyHC-I isoforms; the central regions dominated by MyHC-IIx/b and MyHC-IIa isoforms. Compared with naive rats, tooth extraction produced, 8 (but not 4) weeks later, a decreased proportion of fast-contracting fatigue-resistant MyHC-IIa isoform (p = 0.08), and increased proportion of fast and intermediate fatigue-resistance MyHC-IIa/x/b isoform (p = 0.03). Dental implant placement following tooth extraction attenuated the extraction effects but produced a decreased proportion of fast-contracting fatiguable MyHC-llx/b isoform (p = 0.03) in the peripheral region, and increased inter-animal variability in myofibre-CSAs. CONCLUSIONS Given the crucial role that the Anterior Digastric muscle plays in many vital oral functions (e.g., chewing, swallowing), these changes may contribute to the changes in oral sensorimotor functions that occur in humans following such treatments.

Abstract
Psychological stress is an important perpetuating, worsening and risk factor for temporomandibular disorders of muscular or articular origin. Occlusion instability, by the way, is considered a risk factor of this pathology and can be reproduced in some experimental animal models. The exact physiologic mechanism underlying these relations however, remains unclear. Our purpose was to test the hypothesis that chronic stress and unilateral exodontia induce metabolic and vascular changes in the medial pterygoid muscle of rats. Adult Wistar rats were submitted to chronic unpredictable stress and/or unilateral exodontia and their plasma and medial pterygoid muscle were removed for analysis. The parameters evaluated included plasma levels of corticosterone, metabolic activity by succinate dehydrogenase, oxidative capacity by nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide diaphorase, capillary density by laminin and alfa-CD staining and reactive oxidative species production. Chronic unpredictable stress as an isolated factor, increased oxidative metabolism, capillary density and reactive oxygen species production at medial pterygoid muscle. Conversely, exodontia has a main effect in metabolism, promoting glycolytic transformation of muscle fibers. Association of both factors induced a major glycolytic pattern in muscle and vascular changes. Our findings provide insights into the mechanisms, possibly inducing metabolic and vascular alterations on medial pterygoid muscle of rats, by which chronic stress and occlusal instabilities might be involved as risk factors in the pathophysiology of temporomandibular disorders with muscular components.

Abstract
Clinical evidence has shown that stress may be associated with alterations in masticatory muscle functions. Morphological changes in masticatory muscles induced by occlusal alterations and associated with emotional stress are still lacking in the literature. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of acute stress on metabolic activity and oxidative stress of masseter muscles of rats subjected to occlusal modification through morphological and histochemical analyses. In this study, adult Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups: a group with extraction and acute stress (E+A); group with extraction and without stress (E+C); group without extraction and with acute stress (NO+A); and control group without both extraction and stress (NO+C). Masseter muscles were analyzed by Succinate Dehydrogenase (SDH), Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Diaphorase (NADH) and Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) techniques. Statistical analyses and two-way ANOVA were applied, followed by Tukey-Kramer tests. In the SDH test, the E+C, E+A and NO+A groups showed a decrease in high desidrogenase activities fibers (P < 0.05), compared to the NO+C group. In the NADH test, there was no difference among the different groups. In the ROS test, in contrast, E+A, E+C and NO+A groups showed a decrease in ROS expression, compared to NO+C groups (P < 0.05). Modified dental occlusion and acute stress - which are important and prevalent problems that affect the general population - are important etiologic factors in metabolic plasticity and ROS levels of masseter muscles.

Abstract
Jaw movement affects masticatory muscles during the postnatal period. Prenatal jaw movement has also been implicated in the development of the temporomandibular joint; however, its effect on prenatal development of the masticatory muscles has not been extensively analysed. In the present study, we examined the effects of the restriction of fetal jaw movement on the temporalis muscle, a major masticatory muscle, in mice by suturing the maxilla and mandible (sutured group) using an exo utero development system. We compared the morphology of the temporalis muscle between sutured, sham-operated and normal in utero groups. At embryonic day (E) 18.5, the volume of muscle fibres, but not that of connective tissue, in the temporalis muscle was decreased in the sutured group. The E18.5 temporalis muscle in the sutured group appeared morphologically similar to that of the E17.5 in utero group, except for frequent muscle fibre irregularities. By transmission electron microscopy, in the sutured group, the myofibrils were immature and scattered, the nuclei appeared comparatively immature, the mitochondria were expanded in volume with fewer cristae, and cytoplasmic inclusion bodies were frequently observed. Expression of Myf-6, a late myogenic transcription factor, by real-time RT-PCR was not significantly different between the sutured and sham-operated groups. These findings demonstrated approximately 1-day delay in the morphological development of the temporalis muscle in the sutured group, and some abnormalities were observed, although Myf-6 level was not affected in the sutured group. The present study revealed that the prenatal jaw movement influences the development of the temporalis muscle.
