Influence of defatting procedure on osteogenicity of cancellous bone allograft / 中国矫形外科杂志

ABSTRACT

[Objective]To explore the influence of defatting procedure on osteogenicity of cancellous bone allograft.[Method]Thirty inbred Lewis rats were killed.Distal femoral metaphyses were resected as cancellous bone grafts.Grafts were randomly divided into four groups which were treated by four different procedures,respectively.Content of total lipid and total protein in grafts were measured.Twelve inbred Fisher344 rats were randomly divided into four groups according to different grouped grafts which were transplanted into femoral metaphysis bone defects of the recipients.Two different fluorochrome dyes were given subcutaneously to the recipients at 14th and 4th days before sacrifice respectively.All rats were killed at the 8th postoperative week.The experimental distal femoral metaphyses were harvested and nondecalcified sections were prepared.Sections were observed with a fluorescent microscope and bone histomorphometries were studied.The correlation analysis was performed between mineral apposition rate(MAR) and the content of total lipid.[Result]Results of measurement showed content of total lipid in four grouped grafts were different and the difference between groups were statistically significant(P
