Efecto de la dibucaína sobre la SERCA del músculo pterigoideo interno / Drug action of dibucaine on the SERCA from medial pterygoid muscle

Objetivo: Determinar el efecto del anestésico local di-bucaína sobre las principales isoformas de la SERCA (calcio ATPasa de retículo sarco-endoplásmico) pre-sentes en músculo pterigoideo interno. Métodos: Se aislaron por centrifugación diferencial membranas de retículo sarcoplásmico de pterigoideo interno de conejo neozelandés macho (n=5). Se separaron las isoformas SERCA1a, 2a y 2b por cromatografía de afinidad. Se determinó in vitro la actividad enzimá-tica en presencia de diferentes concentraciones de dibucaína (0-90 mM) por el método de Fiske y Subba-row, realizando 5 experimentos por duplicado y en paralelo para cada isoforma. Se calculó la media y ES de la CI50 (mM) del anestésico para cada isofor-ma y éstas se compararon por ANOVA de una vía (p<0,05), y prueba Student-Newman-Keuls de com-paraciones múltiples. Resultados: Dibucaína inhibió la actividad enzimática en función de su concentra-ción en las tres isoformas en estudio. Las CI50 fueron: SERCA1a 20,02 ± 0,64 mM, SERCA2a 15,03 ± 0,52 mM y SERCA2b 16,00 ± 0,51 mM y resultaron signi-ficativamente diferentes (F2,27 = 11,08, p<0,001). La prueba post hoc identificó diferencias significativas entre SERCA1a y 2a, 1a y 2b. El efecto inhibitorio re-sultó significativamente mayor sobre las isoformas 2a y 2b, cuya presencia es sustancialmente mayor en músculos masticadores. Conclusión: La dibucaína inhibe a la SERCA de pterigoideo interno a concen-traciones menores que las usadas en clínica médica (29 mM). Es un anestésico local con potencial efecto miotóxico derivado de la inhibición de la SERCA (AU)

Aim: To test the effect of the local anesthetic dibu-caine on the main isoforms of the SERCA (sarco-endosplasmic reticulum calcium-ATPase) in medial pterygoid muscle. Methods: Sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes from male New Zealand rabbits (n=5) were isolated from medial pterygoid muscle by ul-tracentrifugation. The isoforms SERCA1a, 2a and 2b were separated using high affinity chromatography. In vitro enzymatic activity determinations were per-formed in the presence of different dibucaine con-centrations (0-90 mM) using the colorimetric method described by Fiske & Subbarow. Five assays in dupli-cate and run in parallel were performed for each of the isoforms. Mean and SEM of the IC50 (mM) for the effect of the anesthetic on each isoform were calcu-lated and compared by one-way ANOVA (p<0.05), and Student-Newman-Keuls multiple comparisons test. Results: Dibucaine inhibited the enzymatic activity in a concentration-dependent manner for the three studied isoforms. The IC50 values were: SERCA1a 20.02 ± 0.64 mM, SERCA2a 15.03 ± 0.52 mM and SER-CA2b 16.00 ± 0.51 mM. The values were significantly different (F2.27 = 11.08, p<0.001). The post hoc test revealed significant differences between SERCA1a and 2a, 1a and 2b. The inhibitory effect was signifi-cantly higher on 2a and 2b isoforms, whose presence is substantially higher in masticatory muscles. Con-clusion: Dibucaine inhibits SERCA in medial pterygoid muscle at concentrations lower than those used in clinical medicine (29 mM). It is a potentially myotoxic local anesthetic whose toxic effect may derive from SERCA inhibition (AU)

Topography and Morphology of the Medial Pterygoid Muscle for the Surgical Approach of the Mandibular Ramus / 체질인류학회지

It has been known that the medial pterygoid muscle influences the mandibular functions related to mandibular movements. In addition, the muscle bundle of the medial pterygoid muscle influences the stability of a complete denture. Therefore, the topography of this muscle is clinically important. However, researches on the clinical anatomy related to the insertion area, and innervation, of this muscle were rare. Therefore, authors investigated the morphological and topographic characteristics of the medial pterygoid muscle by dissection of 31 Korean cadavers. The following are the results:The middle portion of the medial pterygoid muscle was the longest with the length of 59.4 degrees +/-7.1mm, and upper one third of the total length of the muscle was composed of tendon. When comparing the morphology of the insertion area of the medial pterygoid muscle and the masseter muscle in the mandibular angle region, there was no difference of the length of the insertion from the gonion to the superior margin of the insertion on the ramus. However, the length from gonion to the anterior margin of the insertion on the ramus in the masseter case was twice as long as the medial pterygoid muscle case. Insertion of the medial pterygoid was morphologically classified into six groups based on the insertion pattern and the mylohyoid groove. Type V, which the muscle fibers in the insertion of the medial pterygoid muscle were divided and did not invade the mylohyoid groove, were found the most (26.6%). Most of pterygoid branch of trigeminal nerve entered the medial pterygoid muscle through the posterior one third area or the posterior marginal area. The average length between hamulus and the region where the pterygoid branch of mandibular nerve entered the medial pterygoid muscle was 10.1mm. In conclusion, the anatomical relationship between the medial pterygoid muscle and the surrounding structures will be able to provide useful data for clinical applications.

Measurement and analysis of the resistant muscle force of medial Pterygoid muscle in the mandibular prognathic patients

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the resistant force of medial pterygoid muscles against the mandibular advancement and distraction to anterior, and inquire into the relationship between medial pterygoid muscles and cephalometric variables. Sixty six patients with class III malocclusion underwent bilateral sagittal splitting of ramus with intraoralvertico-sagittal ramus osteotomy for mandibular set-back. The spring scale was used to measure the resistance of medial pterygoid muscles after splitting of ramus. Skeletaldental cephalometric analysis was made and statistic package was used for correlation between resistance and cephalometric variables. The resistant force of the right medial pterygoid muscle was greater than the left one in Koreans with class III malocclusion, and the force had a linear regression relationship with facial depth. The results suggested that facial depth has significant correlation with the resistance of medial pterygoid muscle, which can be acquired from patient's cephalometric analysis.
