Atrofia de neurônios do plexo mientérico do íleo de ratos submetidos à intensa carência de proteínas

Abstract: RESUMO. Objetivou-se avaliar os efeitos da oferta de uma dieta contendo 4% de proteínas para ratos adultos, quanto aos aspectos morfométricos do plexo mientérico do íleo. Vinte animais foram distribuídos aleatoriamente em dois grupos: Controle (n = 10) que receberam ração comercial com 26% de proteína e Experimental (n = 10) alimentados com ração com teor proteico reduzido para 4%, durante 90 dias. Neurônios do plexo mientérico do íleo presentes em preparados totais foram evidenciados por intermédio da técnica… Show more

“…The myenteric plexus has morphological and functional characteristics that vary according to the different segments of the digestive tube in humans as well as in animals [1,7] , and it can have alterations in several experimental models like diabetes [8,9] , Chagas disease [10,11] , toxoplasma infection [12,13] and protein malnutrition [14][15][16] .…”

“…Protein deficiency causes decrease in the total neural population [17][18][19] or increase in its density [20,21] . Myenteric neu-ronal subpopulations like cholinergic neurons [22] , positive NA-DH-diaphorase [19,16] and nitrergic neurons [14,15] are also affected by malnutrition.…”
