| Özet |
| Promising developments have materialized in reconstructive surgical procedures with the applications of tissue engineering. In our study, we used tissue scaffolds fabricated from polylactic acid-polyethylene glycol (PLLA-PEG) copolymers to ensure different release rates of selective growth factors recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 2 [rhBMP-2] and vascular endothelial growth factor (rhVEGF165) in the repair of mandibular bone defects. In our experimental study, 54 New Zealand rabbits were used. The rabbits were separated into 4 groups: group I (control group), PLLA-PEG scaffold only; group II, PLLA-PEG scaffold plus rhBMP-2 application; group III, PLLA-PEG scaffold plus VEGF165 application; and group IV, PLLA-PEG scaffold plus rhBMP-2 and VEGF165 applications. The rabbits were killed at 4 and 8 weeks postoperatively, and histopathologic and immunohistochemical assessments were performed. The greatest bone volume was observed in rhBMP-2-containing groups, the greatest vessel volume was observed in VEGF165-containing groups; however, the scaffold containing rhBMP-2 and VEGF165 provided the best outcomes in conjunction with increased remodeling of the new bone. The use of polymer tissue scaffolds that release rhVEGF165 and rhBMP-2 in coordination and mimic the natural healing process in the regeneration of especially complex tissues, such as bone, is a promising treatment alternative in the field of reconstructive surgery. |
