Effects of a buried magnetic field on cranial bone reconstruction in rats

The understanding of bone repair phenomena is a fundamental part of dentistry and maxillofacial surgery. Objective The present study aimed to evaluate the influence of buried magnetic field stimulation on bone repair in rat calvaria after reconstruction with autogenous bone grafts, synthetic powdered hydroxyapatite, or allogeneic cartilage grafts, with or without exposure to magnetic stimulation. Material and Methods Ninety male Wistar rats were divided into 18 groups of five animals each. Critical bone defects were created in the rats’ calvaria and immediately reconstructed with autogenous bone, powdered synthetic hydroxyapatite or allogeneic cartilage. Magnetic implants were also placed in half the animals. Rats were euthanized for analysis at 15, 30, and 60 postoperative days. Histomorphometric analyses of the quantity of bone repair were performed at all times. Results These analyses showed significant group by postoperative time interactions (p=0.008). Among the rats subjected to autogenous bone reconstruction, those exposed to magnetic stimulation had higher bone fill percentages than those without magnetic implants. Results also showed that the quality of bone repair remained higher in the former group as compared to the latter at 60 postoperative days. Conclusions After 60 postoperative days, bone repair was greater in the group treated with autogenous bone grafts and exposed to a magnetic field, and bone repair was most pronounced in animals treated with autogenous bone grafts, followed by those treated with powdered synthetic hydroxyapatite and allogeneic cartilage grafts

Efeito sobre o reparo ósseo de campo magnético sepultado em crânio de ratos após reconstrução com osso autógeno, hidroxiapatita sintética e cartilagem alógena

A compreensão dos fenômenos de reparo ósseo representa parte fundamental da odontologia e da cirurgia bucomaxilofacial. Objetivo: O presente trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar a influência da estimulação de campo magnético sepultado sobre o reparo ósseo em calvária de ratos após reconstrução com enxerto ósseo autógeno, implante de hidroxiapatita granulada sintética ou enxerto alógeno de cartilagem, comparados entre si e aos controles sem estimulação magnética. Materiais e métodos: foram utilizados 95 ratos Wistar machos, divididos em grupos constituidos por 5 animais. Foram realizados defeitos ósseos críticos na calvária dos animais, sendo os mesmos imediatamente reconstruídos, isoladamente com, enxerto ósseo autógeno, hidroxiapatita granulada sintética e enxerto alógeno de cartilagem, sob influência ou não de campos magnéticos sepultados. Foram realizadas avaliações aos 15, 30 e 60 dias pós-operatórios. Apenas um grupo não sofreu intervenção cirúrgica (Naive), para fornecer os dados para obtenção da atividade fisiológica das enzimas fosfatase alcalina e fosfatase ácida. Em todos os tempos experimentais foi realizada a quantificação da neoformação óssea por meio da histomorfometria. A avaliação da intensidade de expressão da proteína osteopontina, foi obtida somente aos 60 dias Resultados: a avaliação histomorfométrica evidenciou interação significativa entre grupos e tempos com p=0,008. Aos 60 dias, nos animais que receberam reconstrução com osso autógeno o grupo sob influência do campo magnético apresentou percentual de preenchimento ósseo superior ao grupo sem influência do estímulo magnético. A mensuração da atividade das enzimas fosfatase alcalina e fosfatase ácida evidenciou interação significativa entre grupos e tempos com p=0,02 e p=0,005 respectivamente. Aos 60 dias, todos os grupos apresentaram atividade de ambas enzimas significativamente inferior ao grupo Naive. A análise imunoistoquímica realizada não evidenciou diferença significativa na expressão da enzima osteopontina com a metodologia empregada. Conclusão: o presente trabalho contribuiu para o entendimento da influência do campo magnético sepultado sobre o reparo ósseo em crânio de rato. A partir dos resultados encontrados, novas metodologias podem ser propostas para complementar os resultados obtidos e fortalecer a presente linha de pesquisa.Objective: the comprehension of the phenomenon of bone repair represents a fundamental part of dentistry and of oral and maxillofacial surgery. The present work has as its objective, to evaluate the influence of a stimulated magnetic field implanted on the calvarial bone of rats after its reconstruction with autogeneous bone graft, synthetic hydroxyapatite crystals or with the insertion of allogeneic cartilage, in comparison to no magnetic stimulation. Materials e methods: 95 Wistar male rats were used, divided into groups with 5 animals in each. The autogeneous bone graft, the synthetic hydroxyapatite crystals and the insertion of allogeneic cartilage were each used separately in the performed interventions of reconstruction with or without the influence of implanted magnetic fields. Evaluations were performed in 15, 30 and 60 days after surgery. Only one group did not suffer surgical intervention (Naïve); this group provided data for the physiological activity of the alkaline and acid phosphatase enzymes. Also, quantification of bone neoformation was obtained through histomorphometry in all experimental time periods, and evaluation of the osteopontin protein expression of intensity in 60 days. Results: the histomorphometry 60-day evaluation, showed evidence of a significant interaction between the groups and the time of p=0,008 on the animals that received reconstruction with autogeneous bone. The group that was influenced by the magnetic field presented a percent of bone reconstruction superior to that of the group which did not receive magnetic stimulation. In 60 days, activity mensuration of the alkaline and acid phosphatase enzymes, showed evidence of significant interaction between the groups and the times of p=0,02 and p=0,005, respectively. In all groups, activity of both enzymes was present and significantly inferior to the Naive group. The immunohistochemistry analysis performed did not show evidence of any significant difference in the oseopontin enzyme expression with the applied methodology. Conclusion: this work contributed to the understanding of the influence that an implanted magnetic field has on bone reconstruction. From the results found, new methodologies can be proposed as a complementary to obtained results and can strengthen the present line of research
