Effect of recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor on cell proliferation during mandible fracture healing in rabbit / 实用口腔医学杂志

ABSTRACT

objective: To investigate the effect of recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor (rhbFGF) on cell proliferation during mandible fracture healing. Methods 8 ?g of rhbFGF in 0.3 ml of H 2O was mixed with 1.6 ml of bovine type 1 collagen and then the mixture was vacuumed to be a membrane. The membrane was implanted around the mandibular fracture following the fracture was made in 25 rabbits. 5 animals were sacrificed 1,2,4,8 and 12 weeks respectively after operation. Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in callus was examined with immunohistochemical staining. Type 1 collagen membrane was used as the control in another 25 rabbits. Results:1 week after operation, PCNA positive cell(%) in callus in rhbFGF treated and control group were 65.2?6.1 and 32.0?5.5 respectively ( P
