Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examined whether high voltage pulsed current stimulation(HVPCS) enhances the migration and proliferation of fibroblasts from tendon biopsies to provides evidence that the cellular activities of fibroblast are enhanced by HVPCS. Flexor digitorum profundus tendon of chickens were excised, biopsied and cultured in M199 medium for a day. The biopsies through which a cathodal HVPC with 100 pps, 50 V for 30 minutes was passed in medium. A day after treatment, the biopsies embedded in fibrin clot were covered by the addition of 1ml of M199 medium to the well, and placed in the $CO_2$ incubator for the duration of the experiment. The migration distance of cells from tendon biopsies were measured at 6 days after treatment, and proliferation of cells from tendon biopsies were measured at 7 days after treatment. The migration distance of cells from tendon biopsies in the HVPCS group demonstrated significantly greater than the shame treated control group (t=-2.675, p<0.05). Also HVPCS had significantly increased optical density of fibroblasts from tendon biopsies (t=-2.136, p<0.05). These results indicate that the HVPCS with 100pps, 50V for 30minutes enhanced either the migration and proliferation of fibroblast from tendon biopsies. These results supposed that the HVPCS activates cellular responses in fibroblasts from tendon biopsies. This suggests that enhanced the migration and proliferation of fibroblast by HVPCS may be one of the mechanism involved in tendon healing.

본 연구는 고전압맥동전류자극이 생검 건의 세포 이동 및 증식의 증진 여부를 규명하기 위하여 시행하였다. 닭의 심지굴근건을 적출하고 직경 2mm의 생검하여 배양하였다. 생검 건에 100 pps, 50V로 30분간 음극으로 고전압맥동전류자극한 후 생검 건을 피브린로 피복하고 6일간 배양한 후 세포의 이동거리를 측정하고 7일 후 세포증식능을 측정하였다. 대조군과 고전압맥동전류자극군의 세포 이동 거리 및 흡광도를 t-검정한 결과 고전압맥동전류자극군의 세포 이동 거리가 유의하게 증가하였으며 (t=-2.675, p<0.05), 흡광도도 유의하게 증가하였다 (t=-2.136, p<0.05). 이러한 결과는 고전압맥동 전류자극이 생검 건 섬유모세포의 성장과 증식을 유발시키고 있음을 보여주고 있으며, 이러한 결과는 고전압맥동전류자극이 섬유모세포의 세포반응을 활성화시켰음을 시사하고 있어 고전압맥동전류자극의 건손상 치유 기전의 일부를 제시하였다.
