Novel approach with intratracheal administration of microgelatin hydrogel microspheres incorporating basic fibroblast growth factor for rescue of rats with monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension

Abstract: A single intratracheal administration of mGHMs/bFGF increased the number of vessels in the lung and ameliorated survival and hemodynamics in rats with monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension.

“…The same group has developed gelatin particles for the treatment of arteriosclerosis obliterans by the release of erythropoietin,12 regeneration of intravertebral disc by the delivery of platelet‐rich plama,77 and osteoarthritis using basic fibroblastic growth factor (bFGF) testing their effectiveness in animal models 78. More works using microparticles in this ambit have been developed by these authors regarding osteochondral regeneration as well as the induction of angiogenesis 79–82…”

“…In a pair of reports, the Gama group characterized the dextran-IL-10 nanogels and showed release of active IL-10 in biological relevant amounts for 4 hours in vivo [28,29]. Another report utilized intratracheal delivery for hydrogel-based therapies to administer basic Fibroblast Growth Factor to alleviate monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension in rats [30].…”

“…The design of novel therapeutics to promote restorative angiogenesis engages bioengineering techniques to exploit biological pathways. Hydrogels are a class of hydrated, polymeric material that are widely used as artificial threedimensional scaffolds and as vehicles for drug delivery (19,20). Integrins are heterodimeric transmembrane receptors, composed of a and b subunits, which facilitate cellular adhesion between the extracellular matrix and cellular cytoskeleton.…”

“…Segura's laboratory demonstrates the novel use of customized hydrogels with specific integrin activation modified by growth factors for angiogenic modulation after acute vascular injury. These customized hydrogels show promise as improved models of study to elucidate unknown pathophysiology of angiogenesis, as well as novel technology for drug delivery (20). Various types of hydrogels with different chemical and physical properties have been developed previously to improve localized delivery of growth factors for therapeutic angiogenesis (23).…”
