To investigate the effect of epidermal stem cells from human hypertrophic scar (HS-ESCs) on the skin wound healing in nude mice.
40 mice were randomly divided into two groups as experimental group (n = 20) and control group (n = 20). Wounds, 1 cm in diameters, were made on every mouse back. The wounds were treated with HS-ESCs and erythromycin ointment in experimental group, or only with erythromycin ointment in control group. The wound healing was observed during the following 14 days. The expression of collagen-I, collagen-III, epidermal growth factor (EGF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF2) , transforming growth factor (TGFbeta1, and TGFbeta2) were studied.
The wound healing time in the experimental group was (20.8 +/- 0.84) d, which was (25.6 +/- 0.89) d in the control group. HE staining revealed that the extent of vascularization in the experimental group was 11.60 +/- 0.55, while it was 8.04 +/- 0.33 in the control group. Immunochemistry analysis showed the expression of collagen-I, collagen-III, EGF, FGF2, TGFbeta1, and TGFbeta2 in the experimental group were significantly higher, compared with those in control group (P < 0.05).
HS-ESCs may promote wound healing through enhancement of the vascularization of the wound tissue and the expression of growth factors.
探讨人增生性瘢痕表皮干细胞(HS-ESCs)对裸鼠皮肤伤口愈合的影响。
将40只小鼠随机分为两组,即实验组(n = 20)和对照组(n = 20)。在每只小鼠背部制作直径为1 cm的伤口。实验组伤口用HS-ESCs和红霉素软膏处理,对照组仅用红霉素软膏处理。在接下来的14天内观察伤口愈合情况。研究I型胶原、III型胶原、表皮生长因子(EGF)、成纤维细胞生长因子(FGF2)、转化生长因子(TGFβ1和TGFβ2)的表达。
实验组伤口愈合时间为(20.8±0.84)天,对照组为(25.6±0.89)天。HE染色显示,实验组血管化程度为11.60±0.55,对照组为8.04±0.33。免疫化学分析表明,实验组I型胶原、III型胶原、EGF、FGF2、TGFβ1和TGFβ2的表达明显高于对照组(P < 0.05)。
HS-ESCs可能通过增强伤口组织的血管化和生长因子的表达来促进伤口愈合。
