摘要
Fractured bones heal by a cascade of cellular events in which mesenchymal cells respond to unknown regulators by proliferating, differentiating, and synthesizing extracellular matrix. Current concepts suggest that growth factors may regulate different steps in this cascade (10). Recent studies suggest regulatory roles for PDGF, aFGF, bFGF, and TGF-beta in the initiation and the development of the fracture callus. Fracture healing begins immediately following injury, when growth factors, including TGF-beta 1 and PDGF, are released into the fracture hematoma by platelets and inflammatory cells. TGF-beta 1 and FGF are synthesized by osteoblasts and chondrocytes throughout the healing process. TGF-beta 1 and PDGF appear to have an influence on the initiation of fracture repair and the formation of cartilage and intramembranous bone in the initiation of callus formation. Acidic FGF is synthesized by chondrocytes, chondrocyte precursors, and macrophages. It appears to stimulate the proliferation of immature chondrocytes or precursors, and indirectly regulates chondrocyte maturation and the expression of the cartilage matrix. Presumably, growth factors in the callus at later times regulate additional steps in repair of the bone after fracture. These studies suggest that growth factors are central regulators of cellular proliferation, differentiation, and extracellular matrix synthesis during fracture repair. Abnormal growth factor expression has been implicated as causing impaired or abnormal healing in other tissues, suggesting that altered growth factor expression also may be responsible for abnormal or delayed fracture repair. As a complete understanding of fracture-healing regulation evolves, we expect new insights into the etiology of abnormal or delayed fracture healing, and possibly new therapies for these difficult clinical problems.
