Changes in Rat Bone Tissue at the Site of the Defect In Vivo under the Effect of a Cryogenically Structured Albumin Sponge Containing a Bioregulator.

We performed a morphological study of the bone tissue after implantation of a cryogenically structured albumin sponge containing a bioregulator isolated from blood serum into an extensive experimental defect of the femur. By day 90, no complete reparation of the bone tissue was achieved in the control group (without implantation of 3D carrier), a loose spongy bone is formed at the site of the defect. After implantation of the 3D carrier without serum bioregulator, the defect was closed, but the formed bone was loose and contained no inflammation foci. After the defect was filed with the albumin sponge with the bioregulator, the repair pattern corresponded to the processes of epimorphic tissue regeneration. The results suggest that cryogenically structured protein material in combination with a serum bioregulator ensured complete restoration of the bone tissue.

Induction of Osteogenesis in Rat Bone Tissue Using Cryogenically Structured Porous 3D Materials Containing a Bioregulator.

We studied osteogenesis induction after implantation of porous cryogenically structured 3D scaffolds based on chitosan, alginate, and serum albumin and containing a bioregulator from bovine serum into in vivo modeled experimental bone defect in rats. It was shown that such 3D-matrices are effective as osteoconductors due to their effect on osteoblast precursors. All types of bioregulator-loaded 3D materials promote active bone repair, which manifested in restoration of the dense bone tissue, formation of the bone marrow, and the recovery of osteons on day 14 after surgery. In animals receiving implantation of control 3D scaffolds without the bioregulator, the formation of dense fibrous tissue and spongy bone was observed by this term.
