Ectopic osteogenesis of tissue engineered bone with slow-released bioactive factors / 中国医学科学院学报

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the ectopic osteogenesis of tissue engineered bone with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein/transforming growth factor-beta (rhBMP/TGF-beta) or WO-1 slow-released factors.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Partial demineralized freeze-dried bone (PDFDB) of pig was used as scaffold material. rhBMP/TGF-beta or WO-1 were pre-coated on the surface of material by means of vacuum negative pressure absorption, and then coated with polylactic acid (PLA) to make slow-released material. There were six group: PDFDB material (group A); PDFDB combined with osteoblasts (group B); PDFDB material with rhBMP/TGF-beta slow-released system (group C); PDFDB material combined with rhBMP/TGF-beta slow-released system osteoblasts (group D); PDFDB with WO-1 slow-released system (group E); PDFDB material combined with WO-1 slow-released system and osteoblasts (group F) were implanted in bilateral lower limbs of 36 Newzealand rabbits respectively (6 rabbits in each groups). Histological, histochemical and biochemical analysis were detected 2, 4, 6, 8 weeks after operation.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Within the observation periods, no osteogenesis was observed in group A. The osteogenesis in group B, D, F were superior to that of group C and E (P < 0.05). The osteogenetic activity in group C and E was delayed. The quantity and quality of osteogenesis in group D and F were 2 weeks ahead of time compared with group B, and 4 weeks to that of group C and E. The newborn calcification content was superior to that of group A, C, and E (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The osteogenesis of PDFDB materials with BMP/TGF-beta or WO-1 is slower than that of which combined with osteoblasts. Simple material PDFDB has no ectopic osteogenesis.</p>
