促红细胞生成素促进坐骨神经再生的实验研究

Objective To investigate the effect of recombinant human erythropoietin(rh-EPO) on the nerve regeneration of adult rats sciatic nerves. Methods Tirty-six healthy male Wistar rats were involved and left sciatic nerve repaired model was used.The experimental rats were divided randomly into two groups:the EPO group and the control group,18 rats in each group.rh-EPO 3 000 U/kg was injected daily into the abdominal in EPO group,and normal saline was injected into the abdominal every day after operation in control group.On 4 and 8 weeks after operation,these items were determined,the sciatic function index (SFI),biomechanics examination,histological observation,electrophysiological examination,myelinated fibers density and sectional area measurement.Results On weeks 4 after operation,the SFI of EPO group and control group were-65.26 ± 3.42 and-70.83 ± 4.12,respectively,the maximum tensile resistance were (3.86 ± 0.29)N/mm2 and (3.38 ± 0.21 )N/mm2,the delayed ratio of latency of motor nerve were 2.34 ± 0.23 and 2.78 ± 0.29,and the recovery ratio of wave amplitude were 0.23 ± 0.05 and 0.14 ± 0.03 respectively.On eight weeks after operation,the SFI of EPO group and control group were-51.34 ± 2.98 and-57.23 ± 4.86,respcetively,the maximum tensile resistance were (4.67 ± 0.36) N/mm2 and (4.13 ± 0.32) N/mm2,the delayed ratio of latency of motor nerve were 1.32 ± 0.15 and 1.62 ± 0.21,the recovery ratio of wave amplitude were 0.41 ± 0.09 and 0.26 ± 0.07,the nerve fibers cross ratio were 0.57 ± 0.05 and 0.38 ± 0.03,and the recovery ratio of sectional area of myelinated fibers were 0.81 ± 0.06 and 0.58 ± 0.03,respectively.Those items in EPO group were significantly superior to those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05 ＝.Conclusion rh-EPO can promote the injured nerve regeneration and improve the recovery of their function.
