dc.description.abstractThe aim is to examine histopathological changes and expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in tracheal epithelia caused by application of topical mitomycin-C (MMC) in rabbit model after the tracheotomy procedure. The conventional tracheotomy was performed in 16 rabbits. They were randomly divided into two equal groups. The first group was applied MMC at a concentration of 0.4 mg/ml around tracheotomy for 5 min, and the other group was not taken a treatment as a control. The animals were sacrificed at the end of 4 weeks. Their tracheas were evaluated with H&E and Masson's trichrome histochemically, and with antiepidermal growth factor receptor immunohistochemically. Results showed that there was no significant difference between MMC and control group for inflammatory cells (P = 0.09). The numbers of fibroblasts and subepithelial tissue thickness in the group exposed to MMC were significantly lower than the control group (P < 0.05). In contrast, the percentage of EGFR in the application of MMC group was significantly higher than the control croup (P < 0.05). The application of topical MMC on airway epithelia after tracheotomy showed significant elevation in the levels of epithelial EGFR expression compared to controls in a rabbit model. The activation of epithelial EGFR may facilitate epithelial healing, but further studies are needed to assess the effect of topical MMC on respiratory epithelia. (c) 2004 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.
