  • STUDY ON THE CHANGES OF cAMP AND cGMP WITHIN PLATELET AND IN SERUM IN THE COURSE OF CANINE INFERIOR VENA CAVA RECONSTRUCTION

    The Dacron grafts seeded with autologous venous fragments were implanted into IVC of 13 canines as seeded group and the control grafts (8 cases), which were only preclotted with fresh blood. The amounts of cAMP and cGMP in serum and within platelet were measured. All of the specimens explanted at exsaguination were observed morphologically. The results shown that the total patency rate were 61.5% in seeded group, but 25.0% in control one and new endothelial lining formed at two weeks after implantation of the seeded grafts. The amounts of cAMP in serum and within platelet were higher in seeded group, but the amounts of cGMP were lower in serum and within platelet. These were in accordance with the results that the endothelialization of the grafts were complete in seeded group but not complete in control one. The results indicate that seeding Dacron with autologous venous fragment makes new endothelium formed at two weeks after implantation, increases the amounts of cAMP in serum and within platelet, but reduces the amounts of cGMP and thus improves graft patency rate.

  • ROLE OF PRE-COATING IN ARTIFICIAL VESSEL ENDOTHELIALIZATION

    Objective To understand the value of pre-coating in artificial vessel endothelialization. Methods Literature concerning precoating in artificial vessel endothelialization was extensively reviewed. Results Pre-coating included chemical coatings(collagen, fibronectin, laminin, poly-l-lysin, gelatin andextracellular matrix), pre-clotting(plasma, blood, serum and fibrin glue), chemical bonding (heparin, RGD and lectins) and surface modification. Most of them could enhance the adhesion of the endothelial cells. Conclusion Pre-coating couldimprove endothelialization, but further research is needed to search for the appropriate concentration and incubation time.

  • EFFECT OF RECOMBINANT HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE ON ENDOTHELIALIZATION OF VASCULAR PROSTHESES

    ObjectiveTo investigate whether the recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) can promote endothelialization, inhibit vascular intimal hyperplasia, and improve long-term patency rate by the treatment of rhGH after vascular prostheses bypass. MethodsBetween August 2007 and January 2009, 94 patients with lower extremity arteriosclerotic occlusive disease were treated. Among them, 32 patients (34 limbs) who met the selection criteria were enrolled in this study. All cases were randomly divided into study group (16 cases, 18 limbs) and control group (16 cases, 16 limbs). There was no significant difference (P>0.05) in gender, age, disease time, location of lesions, the Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus (TASC) grade, and basic diseases between 2 groups. The patients with superficial femoral artery disease received above-knee femoro-popliteal prostheses bypass. The patients who had combined abdominal-iliac artery disease received concurrent abdominal-femoral and femoro-popliteal prostheses bypass. Subcutaneous injection of 9 U rhGH was given every night for 7 days in study group, and saline was applied in control group. Ultrasonography was taken after 2 weeks and 3 months of operation to observe the patency and measure the wall thickness of vascular prostheses. ResultsAfter operation, 1 patient of control group died of renal failure caused by acute thrombosis. After 2 weeks, ultrasonography showed no obvious intimal hyperplasia in 2 groups; the wall thickness was (0.13±0.02) cm in study group and (0.15±0.03) cm in control group, showing no significant difference (t=-1.720, P=0.108). After 3 months, the wall thickness was (0.17±0.06) cm in study group and was (0.26±0.09) cm in control group, showing significant difference (t=-2.240, P=0.045). All cases were followed up 36-60 months (mean, 56.4 months). The 5-year primary patency rate was 52.5% in study group and 35.7% in control group, showing no significant difference (χ2=1.470, P=0.225). ConclusionThe rhGH can improve endothelialization in vascular prostheses and can inhibit postoperative vascular intimal hyperplasia in clinical application.
