RGD多肽接枝聚复合导管桥接神经缺损的实验研究

Objective To investigate the effect of RGD peptide conjugated poly LA-(Glc-Lys) ]/βTCP/PLA nerve conduit for bridging peripheral nerve regeneration defect. Methods Forty-five male Wister rots were randomly divided into 3 groups, with 15 rats each. A 10 mm defect was created in the right sciatic nerve. In group A the gap was bridged by PLA tube. In group B RGD peptide conjugated poly LA-(Glc-Lys) ]/β-TCP/PLA nerve conduit was used to repair the defect. Autologous nerve graft was done in group C which served as control. Twelve weeks postoperatively nerve regeneration was evaluated by gross observation,electrophysiology, muscle weight and muscle morphometry of triceps surae, and ultrastructure of the regenerating nerve. Results Twelve weeks after the operation, nerve conduction velocity and muscle weight recovery of group B were better than those of group A. The differences were statistically significant( P < 0.05). There was no significant difference between group B and group C ( P > 0. 05). The results of histology and ultrastructure showed that nerve regeneration in group B and group C was significantly superior to that in group A.Conclusion RGD peptide conjugated polyLA-(Glc-Lys)]/β-TCP/PLA conduit can achieve similar results in repairing sciatic nerve defect to that of autogentic nerve graft. It may be an ideal material to repair nerve defect.
