Fibroblast Growth Factor-1 vs. Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 in Ischemic Skin Flap Survival in a Rat Animal Model
BACKGROUND One of the main challenges in skin flap surgery is tissue ischemia and following necrosis. The present study compares the effects of fibroblast growth factors 1 and 2 on increasing cutaneous vasculature, improving ischemia, and preventing distal necrosis in ischemic skin flaps in rat model. METHODS Thirty rats were allocated into 3 groups (n=10) and 2×8 cm dorsal rando...
متن کاملEpidermal growth factor and transforming growth factor alpha.
This review describes the discovery and initial characterization of the epidermal growth factors (EGFs) and transforming growth factors alpha (TGF alpha), the biosynthesis and tissue distribution of these molecules and a brief description of the effects of these molecules in culture and animals. An analysis of the similarities between the EGFs and TGF alpha s from different organisms is used to...
متن کاملEpidermal growth factor and transforming growth factor alpha induce ascitic fluid in mice.
Recent studies have suggested that pleural or peritoneal effusion associated with metastatic tumors is induced by some mediators produced by the tumor cells. We studied the ability of well-characterized peptide growth factors to produce ascites in mice. Peritoneal administration of epidermal growth factor (EGF, 10 to 40 micrograms/mouse/wk) or transforming growth factor alpha (TGF-alpha, 10 to ...

متن کاملIGF-I production by adult rat hepatocytes is stimulated by transforming growth factor-alpha and transforming growth factor-beta1.
Previously, we have observed that epidermal growth factor (EGF), a potent mitogen for cultured hepatocytes, stimulates the production of IGF-I and IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs) by cultured hepatocytes from adult rats. This study was undertaken to investigate the possibility that other growth factors of hepatic origin could specifically be involved in the regulation of IGF-I and IGFBP expression...
