“…In biochemical studies, collagen characteristics have been found to differ in women afflicted with pelvic organ disorders compared with those not so afflicted (Falconer et al, 1998;Jackson et al, 1996). However, work in this field is of a very preliminary nature and it is difficult to be certain that altered biochemical characteristics of prolapsed tissues are the cause rather than the effect of increased pelvic organ descent.…”

“…These associations may reflect aspects of collagen metabolism, as metabolic changes have been associated with both prolapse (Jackson et al, 1996) and incontinence (Falconer et al, 1998). Furthermore, connective tissue strength may contribute to variability in measures of both joint and pelvic organ mobility, and genetic factors influencing connective tissue strength may be a source of covariation between these measures.…”

“…Alguns autores relatam que a quantidade de colágeno tipos I e III está significativamente reduzida ao redor da uretra e na fáscia pubocervical em mulheres com incontinência urinária de esforço em comparação às mulheres continentes 17,18 . Em contrapartida, outros pesquisadores relatam ter encontrado que a concentração de colágeno parece ser maior nas mulheres com incontinência urinária de esforço 19,20 e nas mulheres que apresentam prolapso uterino 21 , com maior identificação do colágeno tipo III. Embora tenham sido realizados inúmeros estudos clí-nicos e experimentais, a fisiologia do tratamento clínico da incontinência urinária ainda está longe de ser plenamente elucidada, pois ainda faltam dados anatomofuncionais das estruturas do assoalho pélvico.…”

“…Ocorre a formação de fibras menos elásticas que suportam menos tensão e estiramento [14][15][16][17][18] . Contudo, a real importância dos demais constituintes da matriz extracelular ainda está por ser esclarecida.…”
