目的:探讨大鼠角膜层间植入微粒体诱导新生血管模型的制作技巧和特点。 方法:9只SD大鼠手术显徽镜下做角膜基质微囊袋并植入含有VEGF的缓释微粒体。术后1、3、5、7d采用裂隙灯显徽镜观察角膜新生血管的生长情况。 结果:大鼠角膜微囊袋内植入微粒体后1d仅见角膜缘血管网充血扩张,未见新生血管生长;3d可见毛刷状新生血管自角膜缘伸入角膜,面积为(2.23±0.59)mm^2;5d新生血管垂直于角膜缘向微粒体方向柬状延伸,并达到徽粒体下缘部位,面积为(6.81±1.35)mm^2;7d新生血管继续向前生长,达到并超过微粒体下缘,部分新生血管顶端互相吻合成袢状,面积为(8.92±1.79)mm^2。其中,5d和7d新生血管面积比较无显著性差异。所有术眼均未见前房积血、角膜溃疡、微粒体脱出等并发症。 结论:大鼠角膜层问植入微粒体诱导的新生血管生长稳定、无并发症、适用于定量研究。
AIM: To explore the skills and characteristics of corneal neovascular model in rat induced by micropocket assay. METHODS- Nine eyes of nine Sprague-Dawley rats were studied. Pellets made of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), poly-2-hydroxylethylmethacrylate and sucralfate were implanted into the corneal stroma no closer than l mm from the limbus. Biomicroscopic features of corneal neovascular were observed on 1,3, 5, 7th day after the implantation. RESULTS: On day 1 after operation, the limbal vessels were dilated, with no angiogenesis appeared. On day 3, angiogenesis began to invade peri-cornea with a brush shape, the area of CNV was (2.23±0.59)mm^2. On day5, new vessels reached the lower margin of pellet densely, the area of CNVwas (6.81 ±1.35)mm^2, On day 7, new vessels continued to elongate, parts of them extended as loops toward the pellet, the area of CNV was (8. 92±1.79) mm^2. Neither hyphema or other complications occurred. CONCLUSION: Corneal neovascular induced by micropocket assay in rat grows steadily, with no complication, and is suitable for quantitative researches.
