Abstract
Abstract
Objective:By studying the local effects of a new type of injectable cosmetic filler implanted into the animal to explore the mechanism of remodeling and cosmetic effect of this kind of product.
Method: Take 12 rabbits and select 4 implantation points on both sides of the spine, respectively, and implant the test sample (PLLA) and negative control sample (HDPE) into the subcutaneous tissues on both sides. In the same way, take another 12 rabbits and implant the marketing control sample (cross-linked sodium hyaluronate) and negative control sample (HDPE) into the subcutaneous tissues on both sides. The animals were executed at 1 week, 4 weeks, 13 weeks and 52 weeks respectively, and Hematoxylin-Eosin staining, Masson trichrome staining and immunofluorescence staining were performed to characterize the local effects in vivo and the expression of type I collagen (Col. I), type III collagen (Col.III) and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9).
Result: Good histocompatibility of the test sample and the marketing control sample were found. The foreign body reaction of marketing control sample was more intense than that of the test sample after 13 weeks. The foreign body reaction of testing sample was more intense after 52 weeks, while that of the marketing control sample was more stable. With the process of tissue repair, the collagen fibers of test samples and marketing control samples gradually increased after implantation. Type I collagen was mainly found inside the fiber capsule, while type III collagen was mainly found outside. The positive expression of matrix metalloproteinase 9 gradually increased, the positive expression of test samples increased significantly after 52 weeks, while that of marketing control samples did not change significantly.
Conclusion: Good histocompatibility of PLLA filler is found. Matrix metalloproteinase 9 participates in foreign body reaction and collagen formation, which can reflect the process of tissue remodeling.
