Özet

We aimed to find out whether a single local injection of two different doses of thrombin peptide 508 (TP508) could accelerate consolidation of bone in sites of tibial distraction osteogenesis in rats. Forty-eight adult male Sprague Dawley rats were divided equally (n = 16 in each group) into controls (given saline alone), and two experimental groups, given injections of TP508 10 mu g or 100 mu g. The animals were killed on days 14 and 28 after distraction. Histomorphometric evaluation showed that the TP508 resulted in significantly larger areas of newly formed bone (p < 0.003 and p < 0.0001) than saline alone. At 2 weeks, more new bone had formed in the group given TP508 100 jig than in the group given 10 mu g, but the difference was not significant (p = 0.8). However, the difference was significant at 4 weeks (p = 0.03). These findings suggest that a single injection of TP508 given at the end of the distraction period increased the degree of consolidation. The higher dose was more effective at the later time point.
