Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Therapeutic neovascularization has some obstacles, such as it requires more than one proangiogenic factor, and these factors have short half-lives. To overcome these obstacles, combined delivery of granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), erythropoietin (EPO) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) using protein/dextran/poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) sustained-release microspheres was proposed to promote neovascularization. METHODS:Dextran microparticles loaded with G-CSF, EPO or VEGF were prepared and encapsulated in PLGA microspheres to obtain protein-dextran-PLGA microspheres. The release behavior of microspheres was studied in vitro. The protein/dextran/PLGA microspheres were injected into the ischemic hindlimbs of rats. Neovascularization in ischemic muscle was measured. RESULTS:Microspheres released G-CSF, EPO and VEGF in vitro for more than 4 weeks. Combined therapy with VEGF, EPO and G-CSF promoted the expression of B-cell lymphoma-2 and stromal cell-derived factor 1, cellular proliferation and the incorporation of C-X-C chemokine receptor 4 positive cells. Capillary density and smooth muscle α-actin+ vessel density were higher in the combined treatment of VEGF, EPO and G-CSF than in the single factor treatment. CONCLUSIONS:The combined and sustained delivery of VEGF, EPO and G-CSF using dextran-PLGA microspheres had a more significant neovascularization effect than monotherapy with each factor alone. This combined therapy might be a promising treatment for ischemic vascular diseases.
