Methods.Myocardial infarction was induced in 24 New Zealand rabbits by ligating the root of left anterior descending coronary artery.Group Ⅰ(n=8) served as control, group Ⅱ(n=8) as a blank microcapsule group, group Ⅲ(n=8, each microcapsule contains 1μg bFGF) as micrpcapsule group.In group Ⅱ and Ⅲ, 5 blank microcapsules or bFGF slow-release microcapsules were implanted into myocardium underneath the epicardium between the left anterior descending coronary artery and left circumflex artery.Infarct size was evaluated by infarcted weight/left ventricle weight ratio and angiogenesis was evaluated by immunohistochemical examinations 5 weeks later. [WT5”BX] Results.As compared with group Ⅰ and Ⅱ, rabbits treated with bFGF slow-release microcapsules showed higher microvessel counts (group Ⅰ3775±450, group Ⅱ3837±498,vs.group Ⅲ 13550±481,P<0001) and less infarcted weight /left ventricle weight (group Ⅰ168%±04%,group Ⅱ167%±05%,vs.group Ⅲ 70%±02%,P<0001). Conclusions.Subepicardial administration of bFGF slow-release microcapsule in the infarcted rabbit model results in effective angiogenesis and reduction in infarct size.展开更多

Method The recombinant plasmid pCD-rbFGF was mixed with collagen and was implanted in the necrotic femoral head. Expression of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) was examined by RT-PCR and immunohistochemical method. Re-pair of the femoral head was observed by histological and histomorphometric analysis. Result Expression of bFGF was detected in the femoral head transfected with bFGF gene, indicating significant increase of angiogenesis 2 weeks after gene transfection and increased new bone formation 8 weeks after gene transfection on histom-orphometric analysis (P< 0.01). Conclusion Transfection of bFGF gene enhances bone tissue angiogenesis. Repair in osteonecrosis would be accelerated accordingly.展开更多

Methods: Standard experimental pigs underwent placement of a left circumflex artery ameroid occluder. Six weeks later, the animals in the experimental group were treated with VEGF (20 μg) by direct epicardial injection (n=8) and other animals in the control group did not receive any treatment (n=8). Four weeks after therapy, the animals were evaluated with regard to mRNA and protein expression of VEGF and b-FGF and their receptors by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Results: The mRNA expression of VEGF and b-FGF and their receptors by RT-PCR expressing as percentage of density ratio to the GAPDH control was increased in experimental group versus control group. The protein expression of VEGF and b-FGF and their receptors by Western blot expressing as percentage of density ratio to the Commassie Blue control was increased in experimental group versus control Group. Conclusion: Exogenous VEGF can induce the expression of endogenous VEGF, b-FGF, and their receptors; b-FGF may play a role in the angiogenesis of VEGF.展开更多

Methods: Raw surface in patients were randomly divided into 2 groups. Experimental group was treated by Arnebia root oil and control group was treated by petrolatum gauze, then the tissular structure of raw surface was observed by histology, histochemistry. electron microscope and raw surface healing rates was compared either. bFGF expression in wound surface tissue was also evaluated by Western-blot. Results: Raw surface healing rate of experimental group and control group had obvious difference(P<0. 05). Raw surface of experimental group had more fibroblast, collagen and blood capillary. bFGF was expressed in both groups, and the level of bFGF expression in experimental group was higher than that in control group in every period. There were significant differences between 2 groups in gray-density value ( P<0. 05). Being as an internal control, no significant change was found for β-actin expression, although it occured in various phases. Conclusion: Arnebia root oil plays an important regulative role in the course of healing of wound and it can promote skin raw surface repair and accelerate wound surface healing, which are caused by enhancing bFGF in the wound tissue.展开更多
