Rapid construction of bioactive materials by self-designed enriched filtrator of stem cells / 中华创伤骨科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the efficiency of our self-designed enriched filtrator of stem cells in screening and collecting enriched human bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) for rapid construction of bioactive materials.Methods Bone marrow blood from 32 patients was circulated in our self-designed enriched filtratorand filtered through beta-tricalcium phosphate(β-TCP).The numbers of BMSCs were counted pre-and post-filtration to assess the enrichment efficiency.The numbers of nucleated cells,red blood cells and platelets were compared pre-and post-filtration to assess the effects of the enriched filtrator of stem cells on blood cells.Bacteriological examinations were performed to test the safety of the device.Scanning electron microscopy was carried out to observe the adhesion of BMSCs on β-TCP.Results There was a significant difference between the pre-fihration colony number of BMSCs cultured (232.8 ± 128.6/mL) and the post-filtration one (37.8 ± 34.9/mL) (t =10.743,P ＜ 0.001).The efficiency of BMSCs enrichment of the device was 85.6％ ±8.4％ (from 63.8％ to 97.1％).There were no significant differences between pre-filtration and post-filtration in the numbers of nucleated cells [(16.8 ± 5.4) × 109/mL versus (16.3 ±5.0) ×l09/mL],red blood cells [(3.9±0.6) ×1012/mL versus (3.8±0.6) ×1012/mL] and platelets [(120.4 ± 54.6) × 109/mL versus (123.0 ± 51.8) × 109/mL] (P ＞ 0.05).All the bacteriological examinations of the bone marrow samples were negative.After in vitro osteogenic induction culture,formation of numerous BMSCs colonies was observed on the β-TCP by scanning electron microscopy.Conclusion Since our self-designed enriched filtrator can efficiently collect enriched BMSCs and combine them with β-TCP simultaneously,the device is capable of rapid and safe construction of bioactive materials.
