摘要:

已有研究尝试应用生物材料促进移植细胞增殖和分化、迁移、存活和血管的形成。然而,生物活性材料是否能通过激活内源性神经生成和血管生成来修复缺血性脑卒中目前尚不清楚。实验在建立大鼠缺血性脑卒中模型后7d,将装载碱性成纤维细胞生长因子的壳聚糖凝胶移植到脑组织空洞内。凝胶缓慢释放碱性成纤维细胞生长因子,改善局部微环境,激活内源性神经干/祖细胞,募集这些细胞向半暗区和空洞迁移,随后分化为神经元,同时促进半暗区和空洞的血管生成,最终改善大鼠的运动功能。该研究揭示了生物活性材料修复缺血性脑卒中的机制,从而为临床应用生物活性材料治疗缺血性脑卒中提供一种新策略。

Abstract: Attempts have been made to use cell transplantation and biomaterials to promote cell proliferation, differentiation, migration, and survival, as well as angiogenesis, in the context of brain injury. However, whether bioactive materials can repair the damage caused by ischemic stroke by activating endogenous neurogenesis and angiogenesis is still unknown. In this study, we applied chitosan gel loaded with basic fibroblast growth factor to the stroke cavity 7 days after ischemic stroke in rats. The gel slowly released basic fibroblast growth factor, which improved the local microenvironment, activated endogenous neural stem/progenitor cells, and recruited these cells to migrate toward the penumbra and stroke cavity and subsequently differentiate into neurons, while enhancing angiogenesis in the penumbra and stroke cavity and ultimately leading to partial functional recovery. This study revealed the mechanism by which bioactive materials repair ischemic strokes, thus providing a new strategy for the clinical application of bioactive materials in the treatment of ischemic stroke.
