Sustained local application of epidermal growth factor to accelerate reepithelialization of tracheal grafts

Abstract: Gelatin microspheres act as a functional vector for epidermal growth factor. Sustained local application of epidermal growth factor could accelerate reepithelialization of tracheal allografts.

“…As carriers, scaffolds can provide sustained-release growth factors, which are soluble polypeptides that bind to cell membrane receptors ( Pilipchuk et al, 2015 ). Some of these growth factors can promote epithelial regeneration, such as epidermal growth factor (EGF) ( Zhao et al, 2010 ), and some induce bone formation such as bone morphogenetic protein (BMP), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF). ( Park et al, 2015 ), while others such as platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are beneficial in forming a functional vascular network ( Table 3 ) ( Yang et al, 2012 ).…”
