Preparation and cytocompatibility of novel porous calcium metaphosphate composite membranes / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND:Porous poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate)/calcium metaphosphate composite membranes prepared previously is too thick and uneven in holes. OBJECTIVE:To prepare the thin even porous poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate)/calcium metaphosphate composite membrane, and to evaluate the cytocompatibility and differentiation capacity. METHODS:Porous and nonporous, thin and even poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate)/calcium metaphosphate composite membranes were prepared by phase separation method. Its thickness and weight loss rate were determined. Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were cocultured with porous and nonporous poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate)/calcium metaphosphate composite membranes for 7 days. Ultrastructure of composite membranes was observed under the scanning electron microscopy. Surface markers of the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s on the composite membranes were analyzed using flow cytometry. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The thickness of the porous and nonporous composite membranes was (0.041 ± 0.005) mm and (0.058±0.004) mm. Weight loss rates of porous and nonporous composite membranes were respectively 19.93%and 7.64%at 24 hours. Calcium metaphosphate particles were evenly distributed in porous and nonporous composite membrane. Cel s spread entirely, showing spindle shape. Calcium metaphosphate particles were evenly distributed in porous composite membrane. Pore in porous composite membranes was also uniformly distributed, and pore size was about 2-8μm. Cel s spread entirely, showing polygonal shape with multiple tentacles. The tentacles of some cel s entered into the scaffold. CD105, CD90, CD44, CD29 and CD73 expression was detected in porous and nonporous composite membranes. There was no significant difference in cel-positive rate. Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate)/calcium metaphosphate composite membranes prepared in this study has good biocompatibility and could not promote cel differentiation.

Cellular Biocompatibility and Stimulatory Effects of Calcium Metaphosphate on Osteoblastic Differentiation of Human Bone Marrow-derived Stromal Cells / 대한정형외과연구학회지

PURPOSE: The in vitro biocompatibility of Calcium Metaphosphate (CMP) with human bone marrow stromal cells (HBMSCs) and its effect on osteoblastic differentiation have been evaluated. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The effects of CMP on the HBMSCs undergoing osteoblastic differentiation were evaluated with 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Morphologies of the HBMSCs were examined using scanning electron microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy. Osteoblastic differentiation of the HBMSCs was analyzed by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining and RTPCR. RESULTS: The CMP powder and disk did not exert cytotoxic effect on the HBMSCs. In addition, the HBMSCs were adhered on the surface of CMP disk as successfully as on the culture plate or HA disk and displayed similar actin arrangement and cellular phenotypes. Furthermore, the HBMSCs grown on three different matrices were able to support osteoblastic differentiation of the HBMSCs as accessed by ALP staining. However, the CMP disk compared to the HA disk has a better ability to induce expression of osteoblast-related genes such as ALP, osteopontin (OPN) and osteoprotegerin (OPG). CONCLUSION: The results demonstrate that, in addition to biocompatibility of the CMP with the HBMSCs, the CMP has an ability to stimulate osteoblastic differentiation of the HBMSCs in vitro.

Cytocompatibiltiy of degradable calcium metaphosphate with human marrow mesenchymal stem cells / 中国病理生理杂志

AIM: To screen the cytotoxicity of degradable calcium metaphosphate (dCMP) compared with hydroxyapatite (HA). The proliferation and differentiation abilities of human marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) were used to exhibit the cytotoxicity. METHODS: The cell morphology of MSC was analysed after direct contact with dCMP at different time points by scanning electron microscopy analysis. The degradation products of dCMP and HA were analysed with inductively coupled plasma torch and ion chromatography. The cytotoxic effect of degradation products of dCMP was evaluated by FACS, quantitative assay of ALP and ARS, respectively. RESULTS: dCMP enhanced the proliferation of MSC, but didn't interfere the osteogenic differentiation process of MSC and its mineralization. HA inhibited the proliferation of MSC and the mineralization of osteogenic differentiated MSC, while it did not interfere the osteogenic differentiation process of MSC. CONCLUSION: dCMP had a better cytocompatibility with MSC than HA, which might allow for its use as skeleton scaffolds.

Biocompatibility and Bone Conductivity of Porous Calcium Metaphosphate Blocks / 대한치주과학회지

While calcium phosphate ceramics meet some of the needs for bone replacement, they have some limitation of unresorbability and fibrous encapsulation without direct bone apposition during bone remodelling. To address these problem, we developed a new ceramic, calcium metaphosphate(CMP), and report herein the biologic response to CMP in subcutaneous tissue, muscle and bone. Porous CMP blocks were prepared by condensation of anhydrous Ca(H2PO4)2 to form non-crystalline Ca(PO3)2. Macroporous scaffolds were made using a polyurethane sponge method. CMP block possesses a macroporous structure with approximate pore size range of 0.3-1mm. CMP blocks were implanted in 8 mm sized calvarial defect, subcutaneous tissue and muscle of 6 Newzealand White rabbits and histologic observation were performed at 4 and 6 weeks later. CMP blocks in subcutaneous tissue and muscle were well adapted without any adverse tissue reaction and resorbed slowly and spontaneously. Histologic observation of calvarial defect at 4 and 6 weeks revealed that CMP matrix were mingled with and directly apposed to new bone without any intervention of fibrous connective tissue. CMP blocks didn't show any adverse tissue reaction and resorbed spontaneously also in calvarial defect. This result revealed that CMP had a high affinity for bone and was very biocompatible. From this preliminary result, it was suggested that CMP was a promising ceramic as a bone substitute and tissue engineering scaffold for bone formation.
