Morfologia e morfometria dos tipos de fibras do músculo reto abdominal de cadelas (Canis familiaris) durante a gestação

Abstract: Neste trabalho foram avaliadas as alterações morfológicas e o grau de hipertrofia das fibras de contração lentas (tipo I) e rápidas (tipo II) do músculo reto abdominal de cadelas adultas nas fases: pré-gestacional, 30 e 60 dias de gestação e 30 dias pós-parto (pp). Em todas essas fases, sob anestesia, foram removidas biópsias musculares, as quais foram congeladas. Cortes histológicos foram obtidos em um micrótomo e corados com hematoxilina e eosina (HE) para a avaliação da morfologia. Outros cortes foram subme… Show more

“…Collagen fibers are important structural elements of the extracellular matrix 1 . Skeletal muscle tissue is composed of two basic types of collagen fibers with different morphological, metabolic, and contractile characteristics 2 The evaluation of collagen fibers and particularly their subtypes has been essential for the diagnosis of different pathologies 4 in muscle biopsies and experimental conditions, including hypertrophy caused by repetitive strain and sustained work, muscle atrophy due to lack of use or denervation, and longitudinal fiber splitting 1 . Muscle collagen has multiple mechanical, immune, and tissue repair functions.…”

“…The skeletal striated muscle tissue is composed by two basic types of fibers with different metabolic, morphologic and contractile characteristics 11 . The relative amount and distribution of collagen fibers in the different muscles depends on the species, race, sex, age, muscle group, and on the individual itself.…”

“…More specifically, the tensile strength results from inter-and intramolecular crossed connections, orientation, density, and frictional forces between fibers, and physical and chemical interactions with other structural components of the extracellular matrix 13 . The evaluation of the subtypes of collagen fibers in muscle biopsies has been essential for the diagnosis of different pathological and experimental conditions, such as hypertrophy caused by repetitive strain and sustained work, muscle atrophy due to lack of use or denervation, and longitudinal fiber splitting 11 . There are few reports in the literature on the effects of ageing on human muscles, probably because of the difficulties associated with the performance of serial studies in humans, which may be one of the reasons why most of the studies use animal models [13][14][15][16] .…”
