ABSTRACT
Background: Cryotherapy is a no invasive technique that uses intense
cold to freeze and destroy cancer tissues. There are no descriptions of its effects over the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor and
pigment epithelium-derived factor.
Methods: Experimental study in cryogenic spot were applied in the
right sclera of twelve pigs for ten minutes. Other 3 pigs were used as
normal controls. Animals were sacrificed at 7, 14 and 21 and the tissues
of choriodes and retina were dissected in areas of approximately
1 cm
2 surrounding cryogenic spots. Expression levels of vascular endothelial
growth factor and pigment epithelium-derived factor were
determined analyzed using polymerase chain reaction coupled to
reverse-transcription.
Results: Vascular endothelial growth factor was significantly downregulated
(24%,
p ‹ 0.05) seven days post-treatment meanwhile pigment
epithelium-derived factor levels increased 44.8% (
p ‹ 0.05) as compared
to normal controls (untreated). Both vascular endothelial growth factor
and pigment epithelium-derived factor levels remain the same until
day 14 but returned to basal expression at day 21.
Discussion: This work expose the relation of cryotherapy with the expression
of two factors related to angiogenesis. Results showed significant
changes on the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor and
pigment epithelium-derived factor illustrating that both proteins are
regulated in response to cryogenic treatment in relatively short periods
(21 days).
