2, result
2.1 wound surface morphologic observation result
2.1.1 wound surface is traced the result
The wound surface shrinkage factor result of calculation of the animal burn model of temp .-regulating type permanent hair styling instrument preparation is seen Fig. 1, wound surface recovers to see Fig. 8, as can be seen from Figure 1, the wound surface shrinkage factor of self-assembled short peptide RADA16-1 group is higher than other each group, the 4th day, the 7th day of acute edema phase, collagen, chitosan, the blank group enlarges trend (wound surface shrinkage factor meansigma methods is negative value) owing to burn wound's edema presents wound surface, and self-assembled short peptide RADA16-1 forms face and still just shows as at these two observation windows and shrink.In the time of 21 days, the wound surface shrinkage factor of self-assembled short peptide RADA16-1 group is up to 80%, and other wound surface shrinkage factor of several groups is 45%-60%.To form face contraction, incrustation, molten crust situation good than the chitosan group for self-assembled short peptide RADA16-1 as can be seen from Figure 8.
The wound surface of the animal burn model of flame burn preparation shrinks sees Fig. 7, four photos show among Fig. 7, self-assembled short peptide RADA16-1 forms the face contraction and significantly speeds than the blank group, especially remarkable in the burn early-age shrinkage, acute edema phase (hindering the back the 4th day), face is formed in the small peptide treatment is not had expansion trend, and blank is formed the more original wound surface expansion of face 35%~50% (P<0.05).
2.1.2 incrustation, molten crust time
Incrustation, molten crust time see Table 1.
Table 1 incrustation, molten crust time
Experimental group | The incrustation time (my god) | The molten crust time (my god) |
Small peptide RADA16-1 organizes (n=6) chitosan group 2 (n=6) polylactic acid group 3 (n=6) blank group (n=6) | 6 9 11 10 | 13 15* 18 16 |
P<0.01,
*P>0.05
As can be seen from Table 1, the incrustation time of self-assembled short peptide RADA16-1 group and molten crust time all are shorter than other each group.Prompting small peptide processed group burn wound skin regeneration speeds up, and healing time shortens.
2.2 histological observation result
2.2.1 wound surface I type, III Collagen Type VI ratio testing result
Wound surface III Collagen Type VI ratio testing result sees Table 2, and wound surface type i collagen ratio then is (100-x) %.Fig. 3 is seen in the demonstration of wound surface I type, III Collagen Type VI.
Each time period wound repairing III Collagen Type VI content ratio (small peptide and blank group) of table 2
Experimental group | The 7th day III Collagen Type VI ratio % | The 10th day III Collagen Type VI ratio % | The 14th day III Collagen Type VI ratio % | The 30th day III Collagen Type VI ratio % |
Small peptide RADA16-1 group blank group two-tailed test standard deviation | 33.748 ±16.41753 24.4290 ±11.47747 P=0.024 | 50.2431 ±17.12478 38.5256 ±15.79507 P=0.001 | 50.6088 ±14.31810 26.9947 ±13.05107 P<0.001 | 50.5175 ±15.06343 16.4129 ±14.89894 P=0.002 |
From table 2, Fig. 3 as can be seen, the wound surface III Collagen Type VI ratio of self-assembled short peptide RADA16-1 group is much larger than the blank group.The active proliferation of prompting small peptide processed group wound surface, it is little than the blank group that the reparation later stage forms the hypertrophic cicatrix risk.
2.2.2HE pathological staining result
The HE pathological staining the results are shown in Figure 2, Fig. 4, Fig. 9, and from Fig. 2 B top as can be seen, the 70th day, self-assembled short peptide RADA16-1 organized visible skin corium cutaneous appendage, body of gland, and hair follicle regeneration is abundant; From Fig. 2 B bottom as can be seen, the 70th day, the visible skin corium cutaneous appendage of chitosan group, but hair follicle lacks.The inventor has compared the hair follicle number of blank group and self-assembled short peptide RADA16-I group burn wound, 0~10 of the every low-power field of the newborn epidermis hair follicle number of blank group, and several 22~44 of every low-power field hair follicle, P<0.01 are organized in the small peptide treatment.This results suggest small peptide uses can promote appendicular regeneration of burn wound's skin histology and reparation.
As can be seen from Figure 4, the 70th day, self-assembled short peptide RADA16-1 group (a) wound surface collagen was arranged near normal skin (c), blank group (d) and chitosan group (b) wound surface collagen are arranged unordered, the scarring tendency is arranged, present " singleization " vitreous degeneration, lack cutaneous appendages such as sweat gland.This results suggest small peptide uses promoting orderly rearrangement of wound surface collagen and the differentiation of skin affiliated group that obvious effect is arranged.
As can be seen from Figure 9, the downright bad exfoliation in burn back, newborn epithelial tissue is along the covering of creeping of leukocyte infiltration band.Clearly show the epithelization process of burn back epidermis cell from the deep skin differentiation.This results suggest, the burn model that this experiment is adopted can know that demonstration burn slough comes off, the dynamic process in each period that the differentiation of newborn epidermal tissue is creeped.Quantitative analysis that helps testing and comparison, and observe the recovery and the regeneration of damaged tissues in different time sections, by detailed pathological observation, can the impaired wound surface inflammation of clear demonstration ooze out (impaired wound surface does not excise, and this is one of this model beneficial effect of being different from holostrome skin excision model).
2.3 immunohistochemical staining result
Immunohistochemical staining the results are shown in Figure 5, as can be seen from Figure 5, self-assembled short peptide RADA16-1 organizes the brown dense positive particle that dyes and is deposited on epidermis cell, fibroblast and the body of gland, and blank group positive expression rate is starkly lower than RADA16-1 small peptide group (absorbance), (P<0.05).
The inventor uses the secretion that basic fibroblast growth factor in the wound tissue (FGF) and epithelical cell growth factor (EGF) have detected in streptomycin peroxidase complex immunity histochemical method.Discovery is repaired phase self-assembled short peptide RADA16-1 group FGF and (than blank) obviously increased in these two kinds of somatomedin expression on blood vessel and body of gland of EGF to some extent at inflammation edema phase and collagen, but FGF does not continue the trend (FGF continues high expressed has scarring to form trend) that increases.Prompting small peptide processed group growth factor expression has good regulating action to wound repair.
2.4 edema testing result
The edema testing result is seen Fig. 2 A and Figure 10, as can be seen from Figure 2A, calculate wound surface specimen epidermis thickness to the Musclar layer that scald wound was handled 3 hours, find self-assembled short peptide RADA16-1 group almost with the normal control zero difference, and blank group and normal control are widely different, this results suggest self-assembled short peptide RADA16-1 can obviously suppress to burn edema degree of skin wound.As can be seen from Figure 10, the 7th day, (P<0.01, blank group skin histology was the transition inflammatory reaction to the obviously blank group minimizing of edema tape thickness (shown in the yellow arrows) under the rat holostrome skin histology Musclar layer that self-assembled short peptide RADA16-1 organizes.This results suggest, the self-assembled short peptide RADA16-1 skin wound that can obviously suppress to burn is repaired the edema degree of inflammatory phase.
2.5 atomic force microscope observation result
The atomic force microscope observation result is shown in Fig. 6, table 3.
As can be seen from Figure 6, self-assembled short peptide RADA16-1 (a) can form evenly thick fiber and keep the surface of good porosity, and type i collagen (b), biological fluid dressing chitosan (c) then form irregular ball lamellar and assemble (P=0.01).Prompting small peptide RADA16-1 has the high ventilation performance as medicines dressing.
As can be seen from Table 3, along with concentration reduces gradually, small peptide RADA16-1 still keeps good fiber condition, and surface porosity factor descends gradually, and type i collagen, biological fluid dressing chitosan can not form good fiber condition when concentration reduces gradually, and its surface porosity factor does not descend gradually with Concentraton gradient and presents variation tendency clocklike.Prompting small peptide RADA16-1 is diluted gradually and the dressing dilution factor near wound surface is big more more after absorbing sepage as medicines dressing, forms the Concentraton gradient that from the superficial to the deep reduces gradually on the wound surface surface and changes.
Table 3 characterizes (porosity) with the fibre morphology that Concentraton gradient changes the nanoscale three-dimensional stent material
