Estudio Histoquímico de la Enzima NADH-TR en Músculo Frontal de Conejos Norfolk (Oryctolagus cuniculus)

Abstract: RESUMEN: El músculo frontal humano posee dos vientres formando junto, al músculo occipital y la gálea aponeurótica, el músculo occipitofrontal. Como músculo estriado esquelético, el músculo frontal puede presentar fibras con alta intensidad de oxidación (tipo I) y con baja intensidad de oxidación (tipo II). El objetivo de este trabajo fue la determinación, a través de la reacción histoquímica para nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide tetra-zolium redutase (NADH-TR), la distribución de fibras de tipos I y II del m… Show more

“…Our results indicate a predominance of type IIB fibres compared to the other fibre types in the total tissue mass, with no differences in mean diameter being observed between fibre populations. This fact agrees with previous findings from our group regarding fibre counts (Hebling et al, 2006). In the case of muscles located in the cranium, the morphofunctional adaptation of the muscle to its main activity seems to be an initial increase in the number of fibres and not in their diameter.…”

“…The altered function of the muscles of the larynx is presented in various diseases of the voice, these changes have expression in the metabolism of muscle fibers in its organization and morphological appearance, as histochemical and immunohistochemical study of muscle fibers is a valuable tool for evaluation. The histochemical differentiation of muscle fibers supports the diagnosis of many myopathies (Hebling & Esquisatto, 2005). The preferred method for the differentiation of muscle fibers is based on the histochemical reaction for the identification of the enzyme nicotinamide dinucleotides tetrazolium reductase (NADH-TR) (Dubowitz et al, 1985), which can be classified into Type I (slow, fatigue-resistant); and Type II, subclassified as Type IIa (fast, fatigue-resistant) and Type IIb (fast, fatigable) (López-Chicharro, 2006), in the human vocal muscle a higher frequency of fibers Type I and Type II that characterizes the muscle as having aerobic metabolism, resistance to fatigue, and fast contraction has been reported (Guida & Zorzetto, 2000).…”
