Abstract

To evaluate the effect of leptin combined with CoCl2 on rat femur fracture healing. 48 male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into two main groups. Then standardized femur fractures were created to all rats. Control group rats were treated with 0.5 mL physiological saline, and experimental group rats were treated with 5 μg/Kg.d leptin and 15 mg/Kg.d CoCl2 along with 0.5 mL physiological saline for 42 days intraperitoneally. Each main group was divided into three subgroups for each evaluation at second, fourth and sixth weeks, each subgroup included eight rats. The radiological evaluation showed that the fracture healing progress of experimental group was superior to control group from second week. At fourth week, experimental group had better fracture healing progress than control group significantly. Results of biomechanics show the ultimate load (N) and deflection ultimate load (mm) of experimental group was significantly increased than that in control group from fourth week. The present result demonstrated that leptin combined with CoCl2 significantly increased the mRNA expression levels of HIF1A, Vegfa, Runx2, Bmp2, Bglap and Alpl. It suggested that leptin combined with CoCl2 have a positive effect on rat femur fracture healing by activating the HIF1A pathway.
