Abstract:
Aim To investigate the mechanism of MEBT/MEBO in promoting chronic wound healing by MMP-2 and MMP-9. Methods Ninety Wistar rats were randomly divided into five groups: MEBO group, rb-bFGF group, chronic wound group, acute wound group and blank group. Eighteen rats in each group were modeled as chronic refractory wounds. The ex-pression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in wound tissues, on 3rd and 14th day, was detected by ELISA, Western blot and qRT-PCR. Results ( 1 ) Compared with chronic wound group, the time of wound healing was obviously shorter and the rate of wound healing was higher in MEBO group and rb-bFGF group ( P < 0. 05) ; meanwhile, the growth of wounds and the pathological changes of wounds were better in MEBO group and rb-bFGF group. (2) On 3rd day, the ex pression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in MEBO group and rb-bFGF group was higher than that in chronic wound group (P <0. 05) ; however, on 14th day, the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in MEBO group and rb-bF-GF group also decreased (P < 0. 05). (3) Compared with chronic wound group, the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in MEBO group and rb-bFGF group increased on 3rd day (P <0. 05) , while the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 decreased in MEBO group and rb-bFGF group on 14th day (P <0.05). Conclusions MEBT/MEBO promoting chronic wound healing may be associated with regulating MMP-2 and MMP-9 to participate in the degradation and remodeling of ECM.
