Protective effect of NGF loaded PLGA microspheres combined with ultrasonic irradiation on the rat retinal ganglion cells following the optic nerve injury
Objective:To observe the protective effect of nerve growth factor(NGF) loaded ploy lactic-co-glycolic acid(PLGA) micro-spheres on retinal ganglion cells(RGCs) following the optic nerve injury. Methods:The NGF-PLGA microspheres were made using PLGA and the properties of microspheres were tested. Totally 69 SD adult male rats were randomly divided into 5 groups:normal control group(group A),sham operated group(group B),physiological saline injection group(group C),NGF injection group(group D) and NGF-PLGA injection group(group E). Nine rats in groups A and B,17 rats in groups C,D and E. All rats in groups B-E underwent ultrasound irradiation. Samples of retinal section were collected for immunohistochemistry staining and HE staining to ob-serve the performance of glucose regulated protein 78 kD(GRP78) and the pathological morphology change of retina of each group at 12 h and on the 1st d,3rd d,7th d. Number of RGCs retrograde labeled by fluorogold(FG) before the operation was checked on the 7th d. Results:The mean size of microsheres was (3.17±0.60) μm. The encapsulation efficiency of NGF-PLGA microspheres was 68.4%,the loading rate was 0.0323% and the cumulative rate of drug-release on the 7th d was 82.6%.There were significant differ-ences among 5 groups in RGCs count(F=65.858,P=0.000).There was no difference in RGCs count between group A and B(P=0.862>0.05),but apparent differences among other groups were observed(P<0.05). Imunohistochemistry staining showed no positive cell in groups A or B. There were significant differences in GRP78 positive rate of RGCs among groups C-E at different time points(Fgroup=184.330,Pgroup=0.000) and among each group at different time points(Ftime=21.472,Ptime=0.000). HE staining showed the retinal ede-ma of group E was reduced on the 7th d compared with that of group C and D. Conclusion:NGF loaded PLGA microspheres com-bined with ultrasonic irradiation can improve the protective ef-fect on RGCs after the optic nerve injury.
