Self-assembling peptide hydrogel SPG-178 as a pancreatic fistula-preventing agent
Abstract
Pancreatic fistula (PF) is a common and challenging complication after pancreatic surgery. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of a new method for preventing PF utilizing self-assembling peptide hydrogel SPG-178 as a preclinical study.The degradability of SPG-178 was confirmed by mixing it with protease. A PF rat model was then established to investigate the efficacy of SPG-178 at preventing PF. After transecting the pancreatic...
