ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To study the possibility of acellular bony microtubule used to construct tissue engineering ossicular prosthesis. METHODS To prepare the acellular bony microtubule, observe the change of its histocompatibility and biomechanics. The acellular bony microtubule carried with collagen/ BMP-2 was implanted into the middle ear of the animals. The ectopic osteogenesis was observed. RESULTS The acellular bony microtubule has good histocompatibility. There wasn’t significant change about biomechanics. After carried with collagen/BMP-2, the bony microtubule can induce osteogenesis in the animal’s middle ear. CONCLUSION The acellular bony microtubule carried with collagen/BMP-2 has the possibility to be used to construct tissue engineering ossicular prosthesis.
