摘要
Growth factors and/or angiogenic factors are administered in combination with dissociated cells to be transplanted, preferably in microspheres with the cells on or in a polymeric matrix, to enhance survival and proliferation of the transplanted cells. Examples demonstrate that epidermal growth factor (EGF) was incorporated into microspheres fabricated from a copolymer of lactic and glycolic acid using a double emulsion technique, the incorporated EGF was steadily released over one month in vitro, and it remained biologically active, as determined by its ability to stimulate DNA synthesis, division, and long-term survival of cultured hepatocytes. EGF-containing microspheres were mixed with a suspension of hepatocytes, seeded onto porous sponges, and implanted into the mesentery of two groups of Lewis rats, to demonstrate efficacy in vivo. Two weeks after implantation in PCS animals, devices which included EGF-containing microspheres showed a two-fold increase in the number of engrafted hepatocytes, as compared to implants which received blank microspheres.
