At the end of the last century, a model to explain clinical observations related to the mandibular growth was developed. According to it, the lateral pterigoid muscle (LPM) was one of the main modulators of the differentiation of mesenquimal cells inside the condyle to condroblasts or osteoblasts, and therefore of the growth of the mandibular condilar cartilage (CCM). The main components of the model were the humoral and the mechanical. Nowadays, the humoral would include growth factors such as IGF-I, FGF-2 and VEGF, which seem to be involved in mandibular growth. Since skeletal muscle can secrete these growth factors, there is a possibility that LPM modulates the growth of CCM by a paracrine or endocrine mechanism. The mechanical component derived from the observations that both the blood flow inside the temporomandibular joint (ATM) and the action of the retrodiscal pad on the growth of the CCM, depend, in part, on the contractile activity of the LPM. Despite the fact that there are some results suggesting  hat LPM is activated under conditions of mandibular protrusion, there is no full agreement on whether this can stimulate the growth of CCM. In this review, the contributions and limitations of the works related to mandibular growth are discussed and a model which integrates the available information to explain the role of the LPM in the growth of the CCM is proposed.

Analizar comparativamente las características morfo-funcionales de las Unidades motoras reclutadas durante la realización de una RM en el músculo recto anterior (cuadriceps bilateral) en futbolistas entre 15 a 20 años del equipo de fútbol de la división sub-21 de Santa fe por medio de la electromiografia. La medición electromiográfica ha demostrado que el reclutamiento de fibras es mayor, en deportistas en comparación con personas sedentarias debido a que tienen un manejo diferente de la potencia, entendiendo esta como la integración de la velocidad con fuerza máxima, una cualidad determinante en cualquier tipo de salto, o cambios rápidos de dirección, como en la potencia de despegue, arranque, aceleración y/o desaceleración.
