Purpose
To evaluate the effects of pirfenidone nanoparticles on corneal re-epithelialization and scarring, major clinical challenges after alkali burn.Methods
Effect of pirfenidone on collagen I and α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) synthesis by TGFβ induced primary corneal fibroblast cells was evaluated by immunoblotting and immunocytochemistry. Pirfenidone loaded poly (lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) nanoparticles were prepared, characterized and their cellular entry was examined in primary corneal fibroblast cells by fluorescence microscopy. Alkali burn was induced in one eye of Sprague Dawley rats followed by daily topical treatment with free pirfenidone, pirfenidone nanoparticles or vehicle. Corneal re-epithelialization was assessed daily by flourescein dye test; absence of stained area indicated complete re-epithelialization and the time for complete re-epithelialization was determined. Corneal haze was assessed daily for 7 days under slit lamp microscope and graded using a standard method. After 7 days, collagen I deposition in the superficial layer of cornea was examined by immunohistochemistry.Results
Pirfenidone prevented (P<0.05) increase in TGF β induced collagen I and α-SMA synthesis by corneal fibroblasts in a dose dependent manner. Pirfenidone could be loaded successfully within PLGA nanoparticles, which entered the corneal fibroblasts within 5 minutes. Pirfenidone nanoparticles but not free pirfenidone significantly (P<0.05) reduced collagen I level, corneal haze and the time for corneal re-epithelialization following alkali burn.Conclusion
Pirfenidone decreases collagen synthesis and prevents myofibroblast formation. Pirfenidone nanoparticles improve corneal wound healing and prevent fibrosis. Pirfenidone nanoparticles are of potential value in treating corneal chemical burns and other corneal fibrotic diseases. 相似文献2.

Background aimsCorneal inflammation after alkali burns often results in vision loss due to corneal opacification and neovascularization. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and their secreted factors (secretome) have been studied for their anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenic properties with encouraging results. However, topical instillation of MSCs or their secretome is often accompanied by issues related to delivery or rapid washout. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) and collagen are well-known biomaterials used extensively in scaffolds for tissue engineering. To effectively suppress alkaline burn-induced corneal injury, the authors proposed encapsulating MSCs within collagen gels cross-linked with multi-functional PEG-succinimidyl esters as a means to deliver the secretome of immobilized MSCs.MethodsHuman MSCs were added to a neutralized collagen solution and mixed with a solution of four-arm PEG-N-hydroxysuccinimide. An ex vivo organ culture was conducted using rabbit corneas injured by alkali burn. MSCs were encapsulated within PEG-collagen hydrogels and injected onto the wounded cornea immediately following alkali burn and washing. Photographs of the ocular surface were taken over a period of 7 days after the alkali burn and processed for immunohistochemical evaluation. Samples were split into three groups: injury without treatment, MSCs alone, and MSCs encapsulated within PEG-collagen hydrogels.ResultsAll corneas in ex vivo organ culture lost their transparency immediately after alkali burn, and only the groups treated with MSCs and MSCs encapsulated within PEG-collagen hydrogels recovered some transparency after 7 days. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed increased expression of vimentin in the anterior corneal stroma of the group without treatment indicative of fibrotic healing, whereas less stromal vimentin was detected in the group containing MSCs encapsulated within the PEG-collagen hydrogels.ConclusionsPEG-collagen hydrogels enable the encapsulation of viable MSCs capable of releasing secreted factors onto the ocular surface. Encapsulating MSCs within PEG-collagen hydrogels may be a promising method for delivering their therapeutic benefits in cases of ocular inflammatory diseases, such as alkali burn injuries. 相似文献

The transparent corneal stroma contains a population of corneal fibroblasts termed keratocytes, which are interspersed between the collagen lamellae. Under normal conditions, the keratocytes are quiescent and transparent. However, after corneal injury the keratocytes become activated and transform into backscattering wound-healing fibroblasts resulting in corneal opacification. At present, the most popular hypothesis suggests that particular abundant water-soluble proteins called enzyme-crystallins are involved in maintaining corneal cellular transparency. Specifically, corneal haze development is thought to be related to low levels of cytoplasmic enzyme-crystallins in reflective corneal fibroblasts. To further investigate this hypothesis, we have used a proteomic approach to identify the most abundant water-soluble proteins in serum-cultured human corneal fibroblasts that represent an in vitro model of the reflective wound-healing keratocyte phenotype. Densitometry of one-dimensional gels revealed that no single protein isoform exceeded 5% of the total water-soluble protein fraction, which is the qualifying property of a corneal enzyme-crystallin according to the current definition. This result indicates that wound-healing corneal fibroblasts do not contain enzyme-crystallins. A total of 254 protein identifications from two-dimensional gels were performed representing 118 distinct proteins. Proteins protecting against oxidative stress and protein misfolding were prominent, suggesting that these processes may participate in the generation of cytoplasmic light-scattering from corneal fibroblasts. 相似文献

The nanoparticulate carrier systems as solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) and nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) have gained interest for the topical treatment of skin associated fungal infection as they facilitate the skin penetration of loaded drugs. Therefore in this study, SLNs and NLCs loaded fluconazole (FLZ) were prepared by solvent diffusion method in an aqueous system and characterized for different parameters. In addition, antifungal activity was carried out on experimentally induced cutaneous candidiasis in immunosuppressed albino rats. The results showed that SLNs and NLCs represent the respective mean particle sizes of approx. 178 and 134 nm with encapsulation efficiency of 75.7±4.94% and 81.4±3.89%, respectively. The skin-retention studies of FLZ from in vitro and in vivo experiments revealed significantly higher accumulation of drug in the case of NLCs formulation. The in vivo cumulative amount of FLZ retention from NLCs was more than 5-fold that of the plain solution, while it was 3.3-fold more in the case of an equivalent-dose application in the form of SLNs at 12h after administration. The antifungal study also confirmed the maximum therapeutic efficacy of NLCs, as the lowest number of cfu/ml was recorded. It can be concluded from this study that NLCs provide a good skin targeting effect and may be a promising carrier for topical delivery of FLZ offering the sustained release and maintain the localized effect, resulting in an effective treatment of a life-threatening cutaneous fungal infection. 相似文献

Cellular senescence acts as a potent regulator of tumor suppression and fibrosis limitation; however, its contribution and crosstalk with neovascularization during normal wound healing has not been examined. Here, we explored the role of senescent fibroblasts on neovascularization with a mouse model of alkali-induced corneal wound healing. Senescent cells accumulated in corneal stroma from day 7 to 27 after alkali burn and peaked on day 14, which was consistent with the development of corneal neovascularization (CNV). In vitro and in vivo assays confirmed that the senescent cells were derived primarily from activated corneal fibroblasts. Furthermore, senescent corneal fibroblasts exhibited enhanced synthesis and secretion of extracellular matrix-degrading enzymes (matrix metalloproteinases 2, 3, and 14 and tissue- and urokinase-type plasminogen activators) and angiogenic factors (vascular endothelial growth factor) and decreased expression of anti-angiogenic factors (pigment epithelium-derived factor and thrombospondins), which supported the proliferation, migration, and promotion of tube formation of vascular endothelial cells. Intrastromal injection of premature senescent fibroblasts induced CNV earlier than that of normal fibroblasts, while matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors blocked the early onset of senescent cell-induced CNV. Therefore, senescent fibroblasts promoted the alkali-induced CNV partially via the enhanced secretion of matrix metalloproteases. 相似文献

AbstractThe aim of the present study was to prepare Herceptin targeted nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) of docetaxel (DTX). Herceptin was conjugated by chemical and physical methods to NLCs prepared by solvent extraction technique followed by probe sonication. Different types of fatty amines were used in construction of NLCs. The NLCs were characterized for their antibody coupling efficiency, particle size, zeta potential, polydispersity index, drug entrapment efficiency and drug release profiles. The toxicity of NLCs on MDA-MB-468 (HER2 negative receptor) and BT-474 (HER2 positive) breast cancer cell lines was evaluated by MTT assay. Also their cellular uptake was studied by flow-cytometry and fluorescent microscopy. The results showed the NLCs containing stearyl amine had the lowest particle size, the highest zeta potential and antibody coupling efficiency values. Herceptin binding to NLCs led to reduction in zeta potential and drug entrapment efficiency while, particle size increased. The NLCs containing spermine(SP) released DTX slower than other fatty amines. Non-conjugated nanoparticles containing DTX had more toxicity than the free DTX on both cell lines. Herceptin targeted NLCs caused more mortality on BT-474 cells than MDA-MB-468 cells. Flow-cytometry studies revealed enhanced cellular uptake of nanoparticles chemically conjugated by Herceptin on the BT-474 cells. DTX loaded in chemically conjugated NLCs to Herceptin showed more cytotoxic effects than the physically coated nanoparticles. The Herceptin conjugated NLCs seem promising in oriented delivery of DTX to HER2 positive breast cancer cells. 相似文献

Literature reports dating as far back as 1927 have lured clinicians into the belief that alkaline skin burns are best treated by water dilution and that neutralization attempts should be avoided. Although this belief has never been substantiated, neutralization of an alkaline burn of the skin with acid was thought to increase tissue damage secondary to the exothermic nature of acid-base reactions. The authors proposed that topical treatment of alkaline burns with a weak acid such as 5% acetic acid (i.e., household vinegar) would result in rapid tissue neutralization and reduction of injury in comparison to water irrigation alone. In a rat skin burn model, animals were exposed to an alkaline injury when filter paper (2 cm in diameter) saturated with 2N sodium hydroxide was placed over the volar aspect of the animal for a period of 1 minute. Treatment was initiated 1 minute after injury and included either neutralization with a 5% acetic acid solution (n = 8) or irrigation (n = 8) with water. Skin temperature and pH were monitored using subdermal needle probes until the pH of the skin returned to physiologic values. Punch-biopsy specimens were obtained from the wound edges 24 hours after injury to assess burn depth and leukocyte infiltration, and biopsies were repeated 10 days later to assess wound healing. The authors proposed that neutralization of an alkaline substance with household vinegar (i.e., 5% acetic acid solution) would result in rapid neutralization and thus reduce extent of tissue injury. Animals treated with acetic acid demonstrated a more rapid return to physiologic pH (14.69 +/- 4.06 minutes versus 31.62 +/- 2.83 minutes; p < 0.001), increased depth of dermal retention (0.412 +/- 0.136 mm versus 0.214 +/- 0.044 mm; p = 0.015), decreased leukocyte infiltrate (31.0 +/- 5.1 cells/high-power field versus 51.8 +/- 6.8 cells/high-power field; p < 0.001), and improved epithelial regeneration (4.0 +/- 0.6 cell layers versus 1.7 +/- 0.5 cell layers; p < 0.001) when compared with animals treated with water irrigation. No difference was detected in peak pH (10.35 +/- 0.28 pH versus 10.36 +/- 0.25 pH; p = 0.47) nor in rise of skin temperature (maximum temperature, 32.8 degrees C versus 32.9 degrees C; p = 0.33) between acetic acid-neutralized and water-irrigated burn wounds. The observed benefits of treating alkaline burns with 5% acetic acid in the rat model are significant and require clinical testing. 相似文献

FK506 binding protein 12 (FK506BP) is a small peptide with a single FK506BP domain that is involved in suppression of immune response and reactive oxygen species. FK506BP has emerged as a potential drug target for several inflammatory diseases. Here, we examined the protective effects of directly applied cell permeable FK506BP (PEP-1-FK506BP) on corneal alkali burn injury (CAI). In the cornea, there was a significant decrease in the number of cells expressing pro-inflammation, apoptotic, and angiogenic factors such as TNF-α, COX-2, and VEGF. Both corneal opacity and corneal neovascularization (CNV) were significantly decreased in the PEP-1-FK506BP treated group. Our results showed that PEP-1-FK506BP can significantly inhibit alkali burn-induced corneal inflammation in rats, possibly by accelerating corneal wound healing and by reducing the production of angiogenic factors and inflammatory cytokines. These results suggest that PEP-1-FK506BP may be a potential therapeutic agent for CAI. [BMB Reports 2015; 48(11): 618-623] 相似文献

Limbal stem cells (LSC) maintain the transparency of the corneal epithelium. Chemical burns lead the loss of LSC inducing an up-regulation of pro-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic factors, triggering corneal neovascularization and blindness. Adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AT-MSC) have shown promise in animal models to treat LSC deficiency (LSCD), but there are not studies showing their efficacy when primed with different media before transplantation. We cultured AT-MSC with standard medium and media used to culture LSC for clinical application. We demonstrated that different media changed the AT-MSC paracrine secretion showing different paracrine effector functions in an in vivo model of chemical burn and in response to a novel in vitro model of corneal inflammation by alkali induction. Treatment of LSCD with AT-MSC changed the angiogenic and inflammatory cytokine profile of mice corneas. AT-MSC cultured with the medium that improved their cytokine secretion, enhanced the anti-angiogenic and anti-inflammatory profile of the treated corneas. Those corneas also presented better outcome in terms of corneal transparency, neovascularization and histologic reconstruction. Priming human AT-MSC with LSC specific medium can potentiate their ability to improve corneal wound healing, decrease neovascularization and inflammation modulating paracrine effector functions in an in vivo optimized rat model of LSCD. 相似文献

The present study examined the hypothesis that hypertonic saline dextran (HSD), given after an initial insult, attenuates exaggerated inflammation that occurs with a second insult. Adult rats (n = 15 per group) were divided into groups 1 (sham burn), 2 [40% total body surface area burn + 4 ml/kg isotonic saline (IS) + 4 ml.kg(-1).% burn(-1) lactated Ringer solution (LR)], and 3 (burn + 4 ml/kg HSD + LR), all studied 24 h after burns. Groups 4 (sham burn), 5 (burn + IS + LR), and 6 (burns + HSD + LR) received intratracheal (IT) vehicle 7 days after burns; groups 7 (burn + IS + LR) and 8 (burn + HSD + LR) received IT Streptococcus pneumoniae (4 x 10(6) colony-forming units) 7 days after burn. Groups 4-8 were studied 8 days after burn and 24 h after IT septic challenge. When compared with sham burn, contractile defects occurred 24 h after burn in IS-treated but not HSD-treated burns. Cardiac inflammatory responses (pg/ml TNF-alpha) were evident with IS (170 +/- 10) but not HSD (45 +/- 5) treatment vs. sham treatment (80 +/- 15). Pneumonia-related sepsis 8 days after IS-treated burns (group 7) exacerbated TNF-alpha responses/contractile dysfunction vs. IS-treated burns in the absence of sepsis (P < 0.05). Sepsis that occurred after HSD-treated burns (group 8) had less myocyte TNF-alpha secretion/better contractile function than IS-treated burns given septic challenge (group 7, P < 0.05). We conclude that an initial burn injury exacerbates myocardial inflammation/dysfunction occurring with a second insult; giving HSD after the initial insult attenuates myocardial inflammation/dysfunction associated with a second hit, suggesting that HSD reduces postinjury risk for infectious complications. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate the occurrence and possible mechanisms of apoptosis in skeletal muscles after
burn injury. After a 40% body surface area burn to rats, TA muscles were examined for apoptosis at varying times by TEM, TUNEL
and cell death ELISA assay. Thermal injury was found to induce apoptosis in skeletal muscle on the first day and maximal apoptosis
appeared 4 days post-injury. Apoptotic ligands in serum assessed by ELISA revealed rapidly increase of TNF-α and subsequent
increase of sFasL to sFas ratio after burn injury. It implied TNF-α induced apoptosis in early stage and FasL induced apoptosis
in later stage after burn injury. Apoptosis-related genes/proteins in skeletal muscles examined by real-time PCR array and
Western blotting showed pro-apoptotic genes/proteins, including Tnfrsf1a, Tnfrsf1b and Tnfsf6 in TNF ligand and receptor family,
Bax and Bid in Bcl-2 family, caspase-3 and caspase-6 in caspase family, Dapk1, FADD and Cidea in death and CIDE domain family,
Apaf-1 in CARD family, and Gadd45a were up-regulated, while anti-apoptotic gene Bnip1 was down-regulated compared with that
of time-matched controls. In addition, increment of caspase-3, caspase-8 and caspase-9 activity provided further evidence
for their role in apoptosis in skeletal muscle. Significant increase in expression in pro-apoptotic genes/proteins and activity
of caspases suggested that death receptor-mediated signaling pathways and other apoptotic related pathways participated in
apoptosis in skeletal muscle after burn injury. However, it was found that some anti-apoptotic genes such as Bcl2l1, Mcl-1,
Nol-3, Il-10 and Prok2 were also up-regulated, which might imply the co-existence of protective response of the body after
burns. In conclusion, the data suggest that apoptosis and pro-apoptotic signaling are enhanced in muscles of burned rats.
To further elucidate the underlying apoptotic mechanisms mediating the atrophic response is important in establishing potential
therapeutic interventions that could prevent and/or reduce skeletal muscle wasting and preserve its physiological function. 相似文献

Background
Hevin is a matricellular protein involved in tissue repair and remodeling via interaction with the surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. In this study, we examined the functional role of hevin using a corneal stromal wound healing model achieved by an excimer laser-induced irregular phototherapeutic keratectomy (IrrPTK) in hevin-null (hevin-/-) mice. We also investigated the effects of exogenous supplementation of recombinant human hevin (rhHevin) to rescue the stromal cellular components damaged by the excimer laser.Methodology/Principal Findings
Wild type (WT) and hevin -/- mice were divided into three groups at 4 time points- 1, 2, 3 and 4 weeks. Group I served as naïve without any treatment. Group II received epithelial debridement and underwent IrrPTK using excimer laser. Group III received topical application of rhHevin after IrrPTK surgery for 3 days. Eyes were analyzed for corneal haze and matrix remodeling components using slit lamp biomicroscopy, in vivo confocal microscopy, light microscopy (LM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), immunohistochemistry (IHC) and western blotting (WB). IHC showed upregulation of hevin in IrrPTK-injured WT mice. Hevin -/- mice developed corneal haze as early as 1-2 weeks post IrrPTK-treatment compared to the WT group, which peaked at 3-4 weeks. They also exhibited accumulation of inflammatory cells, fibrotic components of ECM proteins and vascularized corneas as seen by IHC and WB. LM and TEM showed activated keratocytes (myofibroblasts), inflammatory debris and vascular tissues in the stroma. Exogenous application of rhHevin for 3 days reinstated inflammatory index of the corneal stroma similar to WT mice.Conclusions/Significance
Hevin is transiently expressed in the IrrPTK-injured corneas and loss of hevin predisposes them to aberrant wound healing. Hevin -/- mice develop early corneal haze characterized by severe chronic inflammation and stromal fibrosis that can be rescued with exogenous administration of rhHevin. Thus, hevin plays a pivotal role in the corneal wound healing. 相似文献13.

BACKGROUND: Gene transfer to burn wounds could present an alternative to conventional and often insufficient topical and systemic application of therapeutic agents to aid in wound healing. The goals of this study were to assess and optimize the potential of transient non-viral gene delivery to burn wounds. METHODS: HaCaT cells were transfected with luciferase or beta-galactosidase transgene using either pure plasmid DNA (pDNA) or complexed with Lipofectamine 2000, FuGENE6, or DOTAP-Chol. Expression was determined by bioluminescence and fluorescence. Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats received naked pDNA, lipoplexes, or carrier control intradermally into either unburned skin, superficial, partial, or full-thickness scald burn. Animals were sacrificed after 24 h, 48 h, or 7 days, and transgene expression was assessed. RESULTS: Gene transfer to HaCaT cells showed the overall highest expression for DOTAP/Chol (77.85 ng luciferase/mg protein), followed by Lipofectamine 2000 (33.14 ng luciferase/mg protein). pDNA-derived gene transfer to superficial burn wounds showed the highest expression among burn groups (0.77 ng luciferase/mg protein). However, lipoplex-derived gene transfer to superficial burns and unburned skin failed to show higher expression. CONCLUSIONS: Lipofectamine 2000 and DOTAP/Chol lipoplex showed significantly enhanced gene transfer, whereas no transfection was detectable for naked DNA in vitro. In contrast to the in vitro study, naked DNA was the only agent with which gene delivery was successful in experimental burn wounds. These findings highlight the limited predictability of in vitro analysis for gene delivery as a therapeutic approach. 相似文献

Increases in plasma beta-endorphin and tail flick latency in the rat following burn injury 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In children with burn injuries we found, in earlier studies, an inverse association of plasma beta-endorphin immunoactivity (iB-EP) and pain levels. To further explore the effects of burn trauma on the peripheral release of beta-endorphin and the occurrence of centrally mediated stress analgesia, plasma iB-EP levels and tail flick latency (TFL) were measured in rats subjected (while anesthetized) to scald injury. In comparison to sham burn (dip in tepid water), burn injury increased plasma iB-EP and TFL; both the duration and magnitude of these effects were directly proportional to the extent of burns. In rats receiving no treatment, TFLs were unchanged throughout the time of the burn experiments. At 2 days post-burn TFLs were invariably back to pre-burn levels. Administration of the long-acting opioid antagonist naltrexone prior to burn injury prevented the rise in TFL. Thus the trauma of burns appeared to bring about a stress-induced analgesia (SIA). The marked increase in iB-EP during this SIA and its antagonism by naltrexone suggest that it was opioid and hormonal in character. 相似文献

The aim of the present study was to design a targeted delivery system of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Lactobionic acid (LB) was conjugated to stearyl amine (SA) by a chemical reaction. The nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs), containing LB conjugate, lecithin, glyceryl monostearate, oil [oleic acid (OA) or Labrafac 5 or 10%], and 5-FU, were dissolved in alcohol/acetone, the oil phase was added to the aqueous phase containing Tween 80 or Solutol® HS15 (0.25 or 0.5%), and NLCs were prepared by an emulsification-solvent diffusion method. Physical properties and drug release were studied in NLCs. The thiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide assay was used to study the cytotoxicity of NLCs on HepG2 cells, and the cellular uptake of NLCs was determined by flow cytometry. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and 1H-NMR spectra confirmed the successful conjugation of LB and SA. The optimized NLCs consisted of 0.5% Solutol HS15 and 10% OA oil. The particle size of these nanoparticles was 139.2 nm, with a zeta potential of –18 mV, loading efficiency of 34.2%, release efficiency after 2 hours of the release test was 72.6%, and crystallinity was 0.63%. The galactosylated NLCs of 5-FU were cytotoxic on the HepG2 cell line in a half concentration of 5-FU and seems promising in reducing 5-FU dose in HCC. 相似文献

Summary The fate of India ink particles and polystyrene latex beads injected into the corneal stroma of rabbits was studied by the naked eye, light microscopy, and electron microscopy. All the injected ink particles or latex beads were unchanged in shape, size, and number for at least 6 months. India ink particles and latex beads were endocytosed by the corneal fibroblasts within 3–4 days after injection. Numerous ink particles were packed into vacuoles, 0.5–10 m in diameter, which occupy a large volume of the cytoplasm of the cell body and processes of fibroblasts in and near the injected area. Each latex bead, 0.72 m in diameter, is usually enclosed in one vesicle, and a large number of vesicles are distributed throughout the cytoplasm. In corneal tissue removed 10 min after injection of India ink and cultured for 3 or 7 days, uptake of many ink particles by the fibroblasts was seen. By this experiment, the contribution of the blood-derived cells was completely excluded, and it is more distinctly shown that the corneal fibroblast has a strong endocytotic activity.The uptake and long-term storage of ink particles and latex beads by the corneal fibroblast are reactions that protect the organ without inflammation from the injury and harm by non-toxic foreign materials.A part of this study was published in Kinki Daigaku Igaku Zasshi in Japanese as a Ph.
