OBJECTIVE: Loss of ovarian function in menopause is commonly associated with salivary gland dysfunction. The aim is to study the possible therapeutic effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) on the altered structure of the submandibular salivary glands (SMGs) of ovariectomized rats.
DESIGN: Twenty-four female, adult, Wistar rats were used and distributed into three groups (8 rats/group). The control group included sham-operated rats. The ovariectomized group consisted of rats with removed ovaries. The third group consisted of ovariectomized rats received injections, via tail, of MSCs extracted from bone marrow of 3-weeks-old rat hind limb (BM-MSC group). Four weeks after BM-MSC transplantation, the bone mineral density (BMD) of the femur was detected. The SMG was dissected and processed for histological, immunohistochemical, and histomorphometric analyses.
RESULTS: The ovariectomized rats depicted low BMD in the femur. The SMG acini revealed atrophy. The ductal and acinar cells depicted vacuolization and abnormal nuclear histology. GLUT1 immunostaining was decreased in SMG ducts. The BM-MSC group resumed the normal SMG histology and GLUT1 immunolabelling.
CONCLUSIONS: BM-MSC therapy restored the normal SMG structure and GLUT1 immunostaining in the treated ovariectomized rats, suggesting improved glucose transporting function.
