Heparin and heparan sulfate increase the radius of diffusion and action of basic fibroblast growth factor
The radius of diffusion of basic FGF (bFGF) in the presence and in the absence of the glycosaminoglycans heparin and heparan sulfate was measured. Iodinated 125I-bFGF diffuses further in agarose, fibrin, and on a monolayer of bovine aortic endothelial (BAE) cells in the presence of heparin than in its absence. Heparan sulfates affected the diffusion of 125I-bFGF in a manner similar to, though l...
متن کاملEffect of Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor on Achilles Tendon Healing in Rabbit
BACKGROUND Tendon injuries are common and it takes a long time for an injured tendon to heal. Adverse phenomena such as adhesion and rupture are associated with these injuries. Finding a method to reduce the time required for healing whichimproves the final outcome, will lead to decreased frequency and intensity of adverse consequences. This study was designed to investigate the effects ...
متن کاملTreatment of Skin Avulsion Injuries with Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor
This report describes favorable outcomes in 9 patients with skin avulsion injuries of the extremities who underwent full-thickness skin grafting and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) application. Following removal of contaminated subcutaneous fat tissue on the inside of skin, the avulsed skin was processed into a full-thickness skin graft, with as much of the skin used as possible irrespect...
متن کاملSkeletal effects of systemic treatment with basic fibroblast growth factor.
Systemic treatment of intact and ovariectomized rats with basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) has strong bone anabolic effects. These effects include marked increases in osteoblast number and activity along cancellous and endocortical bone surfaces, which result in accumulation of osteoid and augmentation of cancellous and cortical bone mass after only short-term treatment with bFGF. Osteocla...
متن کاملThrombin-induced release of active basic fibroblast growth factor-heparan sulfate complexes from subendothelial extracellular matrix.
The angiogenic factor, basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), is sequestered and protected by binding to heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG) in the subendothelial extracellular matrix (ECM). Release of ECM-bound bFGF provides a novel mechanism for regulation of cell proliferation and neovascularization in normal and pathologic situations. Exposure of ECM to thrombin, the final activation produ...
