Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells (BM-MNCs) implantation on neovascularization in rat model of hind limb ischemia, and explore its mechanism. Methods Rat BM-MNCs were isolated from tibia and femur using density gradient centrifugation. A rat model of ischemic hind limb was made by the ligation of the right femoral artery and its branches in imbred Wistar rats. BM-MNCs were injected into 7 points of the ischemic muscles (20?l/point). The levels of VEGF, bFGF and IL-1? in the ischemic musles at the third, 7th and 14th days after ligation were measured by ELISA. Micro-vessel density (MVD) in the ischemic mulsles was evaluated at the second and 4th weeks after ligation. Results The levels of bFGF and IL-1? in the implantation group were significantly higher than those in the control group. The MVD of ischemic mulsles in the implantation group was also significantly higher than that in the control group at the second and 4th weeks after treatment. Conclusion The implantation of autologous BM-MNCs could induce neovascularization in a rat ischemic hind limb, and bFGF and IL-1? secreted by BM-MNCs might play a role in the neovascularization.
