Histological and immunohistochemical findings of the action of botulinum toxin in salivary gland: systematic review

Abstract: The treatment of sialorrhea is necessary for the constant risks posed by hypersalivation. A new therapeutic option comes up with the application of botulinum toxin in salivary glands. However, little is known about its mechanism of action in glandular tissue. Based on the above, this work had the objective to systematically review the literature about the action of botulinum toxin on submandibular and parotid salivary glands tissues. Electronic search was performed in databases of great relevance for this stud… Show more

“…In vivo studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of BoNT on salivary glands (parotid and submandibular) and to determine its mechanisms of action. A recent review (Oliveira et al 2016) found similar immunohistochemical results among different preclinical experiments. Injection of BoNT-A into salivary glands of animals caused reduced immunoreactivity of immunohistochemical markers (acetylcholinesterase, nitric oxide synthase, SNAP25) in toxintreated groups of most investigations.…”

“…Infecções Relacionadas à Assistência à Saúde (IRAS) são adquiridas durante procedimentos no âmbito hospitalar, apresentando altos índices de morbimortalidade e alta incidência nos serviços de saúde do Brasil (ANVISA, 2017a). Constituem um grave problema de saúde pública pelos impactos sociais e financeiros que causam devido ao uso inadequado e indiscriminado de antimicrobianos com consequente seleção de bactérias resistentes (OLIVEIRA et al, 2016).…”

“…The percutaneous injection of botulinum toxin (BoNT) into the salivary glands has been shown to be safe and effective in treating sialorrhea caused by neurological disorders in several randomised controlled trials (RCTs) [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. The rationale for the use of BoNT is the selective inhibition of presynaptic acetylcholine release from the parasympathetic nerve terminals supplying eccrine salivary glands, thereby reducing saliva production [25,26]. Clinical studies vary in the type and dose of BoNT used (type A or B), glands injected (parotid, submandibular or both), population and cause of sialorrhea, inclusion of placebo-control arm, and anatomic or ultrasound-guided injections.…”
