BACKGROUND: TGF-? has been described as a mediator of fibrosis and scarring.
Several studies achieved reduction in experimental scarring through the
inhibition of TGF-?. Fibroblasts have been defined as the cell population
originating fibrosis, blocking fibroblast invasion may impair epidural fibrosis
appearance. For this purpose, biocompatible materials used as mechanical barriers
and a TGF-? inhibitor peptide were evaluated in the reduction of epidural
fibrosis. METHODS: A L6 laminectomy was performed in 40 New Zealand white
rabbits. Divided into four groups, each rabbit was assigned to receive either
collagen sponge scaffold (CS group), gelatin-based gel (GCP group), P144® (iTGF?
group), or left untreated (control group). Four weeks after surgery, cell
density, collagen content, and new bone formation of the scar area were
determined by histomorphometry. Two experienced pathologists scored dura mater
adhesion, scar density, and inflammatory infiltrate in a blinded manner. RESULTS:
In all groups, laminectomy site was filled with fibrous tissue and the dura mater
presented adhesions. Only GCP group presented a significant reduction in collagen
content and scar density. CONCLUSION: GCP treatment reduces epidural fibrosis
although did not prevent dura mater adhesion completely.
