摘要:

实验通过复合法制备神经生长因子缓释微球,并将其植入壳聚糖导管中以提供持续释放的神经生长因子,用其修复兔右侧面神经颊支10mm缺损,并以壳聚糖导管复合神经生长因子或生理盐水及自体神经修复作为对照。面神经修复90d,.见生理盐水组和神经生长因子组面部肌肉萎缩较神经生长因子微球组和自体神经移植组明显。神经电生理检测发现神经生长因子微球组和自体神经移植组的神经传导速度和振幅高于生理盐水组和神经生长因子组。同时组织学观察结果显示神经生长因子微球组和自体神经移植组神经纤维直径、数量、密度及髓鞘厚度均高于生理盐水组和神经生长因子组。说明壳聚糖导管复合神经生长因子缓释微球对兔面神经缺损的修复有明显的促进作用。

Abstract:

Microspheres containing nerve growth factor for sustained release were prepared by a compound method, and implanted into chitosan conduits to repair 10-mm defects on the right buccal branches of the facial nerve in rabbits. In addition, chitosan conduits combined with nerve growth factor or normal saline, as well as autologous nerve, were used as controls. At 90 days post-surgery, the muscular atrophy on the right upper lip was more evident in the nerve growth factor and normal sa-line groups than in the nerve growth factor-microspheres and autologous nerve groups. Electro-physiological analysis revealed that the nerve conduction velocity and amplitude were significantly higher in the nerve growth factor-microspheres and autologous nerve groups than in the nerve growth factor and normal saline groups. Moreover, histological observation illustrated that the di-ameter, number, alignment and myelin sheath thickness of myelinated nerves derived from rabbits were higher in the nerve growth factor-microspheres and autologous nerve groups than in the nerve growth factor and normal saline groups. These findings indicate that chitosan nerve conduits com-bined with microspheres for sustained release of nerve growth factor can significantly improve facial nerve defect repair in rabbits.
