| OBJECTIVES By quantitative analyzing the expression of vascular endotheliar growth factor(VEGF)and basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF)in the introtumor serum of vascular malformation(VM) before and after the pingyanmycin(PYM)local treatment:(1)To find a convenient index to assess the effect of PYM treatment;(2)To investigate the molecular mechanisms of PYM to VM.METHODS The amounts of VEGF and bFGF in the introtumor serum of cavernous VM before,2 weeks after and 4 weeks after the PYM treatment were measured by Enzyme-Linked-Immuno-Sorbent-Assay (ELISA).RESULTS(1)No significant difference was found on the expression of VEGF and bFGF in the introtumor serum of VM between different sex groups.(2)bFGF in the introtumor serum of VM before, 2 weeks after and 4 weeks after the PYM treament.CONCLUSIONS Quantitative analysis of the expression of VEGF and bFGF in the introtumor serum of VM before,2 weeks after and 4 weeks after the PYM local treatment can not reflect the effect of PYM treatment.The mechanisms of PYM to VM needs to be further investigated. |
