Abstract:
To explore the mechanism of therapeutic effect of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) in the treatment of blast-induced deafness, and to define its optimal clinical use, bFGF was infused into the guinea pig's cochlea, combined with intramuscular injection of bFGF after being exposed to explosion. The compound action potential (CAP) and auditory brainstem response (ABR) were measured in these animals. 125I labeled basic fibroblast growth factor ( 125I -bFGF) was injected intraperitoneal to the guinea pigs to observe whether it could pass through the blood-labyrinthine barrier. The results showed that bFGF infused to the cochlea might facilitate recovery of hearing loss following acoustic trauma. Basic fibroblast growth factor ( 125I -bFGF) intraperitoneally injected, could not pass through the blood-labyrinthine barrier. However intramuscular bFGF promoted the recovery of hearing, probably indirectly through the neuro-immunity network.
