Abstract :
Background: Aspirin has been widely used as an anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and analgesics drugs. It has seriously side effects like gastrointestinal ulceration, delayed healing ulcer, and oral mucosal ulceration when Aspirin is administered for long time. Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine the effect of Aspirin administration on Kiehl-67 (KI-67) protein expressions and oral mucosal epithelial thickness in male Wistar mice. Methods: Experimental laboratory study with post-test only control group design was performed and 40 male Wistar mice were used in this experiment. The samples were divided into 2 groups. Group I was treated with Aspirin, whereas group II was receive aquadest. Each group was divided into 5 subgroups for assessment of the length administration effect. All of mice were sacrificed on day 1, 3, 5, 7 and 10 after treatment. Aspirin was orally administrated with doses of 9 mg/kg body weight. The buccal right of mice oral mucosal tissue was sliced and delivered for immunohistochemistry staining using anti-KI-67. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was performed to measure the oral epithelial thickness. Examination of KI-67 expressions and oral epithelial thickness were performed by using ImageJ software. Two-way Anova and Kruskall-Wallis test were carried-out for data analysis with significant level of 95%. Results: The results revealed that the administration of Aspirin in mice on day 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10 was markedly decreased in the KI-67 protein expressions and oral epithelial thickness compared with that of control (p<0.05), otherwise the duration of Aspirin administration did not affect mucosal epithelial thickness. Conclusion: Aspirin administration length has the potential to suppress the KI-67 protein expression within 10 days; the effect in line with the length of duration. The epithelial thickness was not influenced by the length of Aspirin administration.
