  • BONE INDUCTIVE EFFECTS OF rhBMP-2 LOADED POROUS CPC IMPLANTS ON SPINE FUSION IN RABBITS

    Objective To investigate the effect of rhBMP-2 combined with porous CPC on spine fusion in rabbits. Methods rhBMP-2 (1 mg) was loaded with 1 g CPC and 6.0 cm × 2.0 cm × 0.5 cm absorbable gelatin sponge (AGS), respectively, and thereafter frozen to prepare the biomaterial of rhBMP-2/CPC and rhBMP-2/AGS. Forty-five 24-week-old New Zealand rabbits (weight 2.5-3.5 kg) were randomly divided into 3 groups: group A (n=17), group B (n=11) and group C (n=17).With the exposure and removal of L5, 6 transverse process’s posterior bone cortex in all the rabbits, the corresponding cancellous bones were exposed and the posterior bilateral intertransverse bone grafting of L5, 6 were performed on the three groups, then the rhBMP-2/CPC, rhBMP-2/AGS and CPC was implanted into the rabbits of group A, B and C, respectively. Gross observation, histology assay and image examination were conducted 4, 8 and 24 weeks after operation. Results Decalcified hard tissue section demonstrated obvious callus connections in group A, small pieces of callus in group B, and fibrous connection and few cartilage in group C at 4 and 8 weeks after operation. By Kacena measurement standard, the score of group A, B and C at 4 weeks after operation was (7.30 ± 0.76), (3.68 ± 1.60) and (1.75 ± 0.54) points, respectively, and their score at 8 weeks after operation were (8.32 ± 1.11), (3.75 ± 1.23) and (1.47 ± 0.23) points, respectively, indicating there were significant differences between group A and group B as well as between group A and group C at different time points (P lt; 0.05). Undecalcified hard tissue section demonstrated that there was cancellous bone-l ike tissue regeneration in group A, and fiber connection around the implants and l ittle ossification in group C at 4 and 8 weeks after operation. By three dimensions reconstructed CT, group A, B and C scored (2.50 ± 0.57), (1.00 ± 0.00) and (1.00 ± 0.00) points respectively, indicating there was a significant difference between group C and groups A and B as well as between group A and group B (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion As a carrier of rhBMP-2, the CPC is capable of promoting spine bone fusion in rabbits and is a new type of artificial bone repair material.

  • CLINICAL APPLICATION OF BIOACTIVE CPC LOADING rhBMP-2 IN REPAIRING BONE DEFECTS

    Objective To investigate the cl inical appl ication of self-setting CPC loading rhBMP-2 for repair of bone defects and to evaluate the cl inical effect and safety. Methods From June 2006 to September 2007, 112 bone defects patients were treated by CPC loading rhBMP-2 (rhBMP-2/CPC group) or CPC (control group). The range of bone defect was from1 cm × 1 cm × 1 cm to 4 cm × 3 cm × 3 cm. In the control group, 63 patients included 31 males and 32 females, aging from 17 to 70 years with an average of 47.4 years. The bone defects were located as follows: calcaneus in 19 patients, tibial plateau in 20 patients, proximal humerus in 8 patients, distal radius in 9 patients and thoracolumbar vertebrae in 7 patients. In the rhBMP-2/CPC group, 49 patients included 31 males and 18 females, aging from 16 to 68 years with an average of 45.6 years. The bone defects were located as follows: calcaneus in 11 patients, tibial plateau in 16 patients, proximal humerus in 7 patients, distal radius in 2 patients, distal tibia in 2 patients and thoracolumbar vertebrae in 11 patients. All defects were repaired with rhBMP-2/CPC (2-5 g) and CPC (2-50 g) in the rhBMP-2/CPC group and the control group, respectively. Results A total of 108 patients got primary heal ing after operation. Incisions oozing l ight yellow fluids were found in 4 patients (control group in 1, rhBMP-2/CPC group in 3), and then healed through dressing changes and taking glucocorticoid. There were no allergic or toxic reaction, no rush or high fever, no fluctuation of hepatic and renal function, blood routine, CRP and urine routine. All patients were followed up for 12 to 24 months (mean 13.2 months). The X-ray examination showed that the implanted material was firmly bonded to the bone at the interface and the anatomic contour of the bone at the sites of defects was successfully restored, and no ablation occurred. All patients got bone union after 3 months of operation. The movement and function of flexion and extension of affected l imbs recovered to the normal level. Conclusion Repairing bone defects with rhBMP-2/CPC is safe and effective. Using rhBMP-2/CPC is a promising therapy to deal with bone defects.

    【Abstract】 Objective To compare the effect of PLGA and collagen sponge combined with rhBMP-2 on repairing ofarticular cartilage defect in rabbits respectively. Methods PLGA and collagen sponge were made into cyl inders which were 4 mm in diameter and 3 mm in thickness, and compounded with rhBMP-2 (0.5 mg). Defect 4 mm in diameter were made in both of femoral condyles of 24 two-month-old New Zealand white rabbits. The defects in right 18 knees were treated with PLGA/rhBMP-2 composites (experimental group 1), and the left 18 knees were treated with collagen sponge/rhBMP-2 composites (experimental group 2), the other 12 knees were left untreated as control group. At 4, 12 and 24 weeks after operation, the animals were sacrificed and the newly formed tissues were observed macroscopically and microscopically, graded histologically and analyzed statistically. Results From the results of macroscopical and microscopical observation, in the experimental group 1, the defects were filled with smooth and translucent cartilage; while in the experimental group 2, the white translucent tissues did notfill the defects completely; and in the two experimental groups, the new cartilage tissues demarcated from the surrounding cartilage,chondrocytes distributed uniformly but without direction; a l ittle fibrous tissue formed in the control group 4 weeks postoperatively. In the experimental group 1, the defects were filled completely with white, smooth and translucent cartilage tissue without clear l imit with normal cartilage; while in the experimental group 2, white translucent tissues formed, the boundary still could be recognized; in the two experimental groups, the thickness was similar to that of the normal cartilage; the cells paralleled to articular surface in the surface layer, but in the deep layer, the cells distributed confusedly, the staining of matrix was positive but a l ittle weak; subchondral bone and tide mark recovered and the new tissue finely incorporated with normal cartilage;however, in the control group, there was a l ittle of discontinuous fibrous tissue, chondrocytes maldistributed in the border andthe bottom of the defects 12 weeks postoperatively. In the experimental group 1, white translucent cartilage tissues formed, the boundary disappeared; in the experimental group 2, the color and the qual ity of new cartilage were similar to those of 12 weeks; in the two experimental groups, the thickness of the new cartilage, which appeared smooth, was similar to that of the normal cartilage, the chondrocytes arranged uniformly but confusedly; the staining of matrix was positive and subchondral bone and tide mark recovered, the new tissue finely incorporated with normal cartilage; in the control group, a layer of discontinuous fibrous tissue formed in the bottom of the defects 24 weeks postoperatively. Results of histological grade showed that there were significantdifference between experimental group (1 and 2) and control group at any time point (P lt; 0.01); the scores of 12 weeks and 24 weeks in experimental group 1 and 2 had a significant difference compared with that of 4 weeks (P lt; 0.01), there was no significant difference between 12 weeks and 24 weeks (P gt; 0.05), and there were no significant difference between the two experimental groups at the same time point (P gt; 0.05). Conclusion Both PLGA and collagen sponge as a carrier compounded with rhBMP-2 can repair articular cartilage defects.

    【Abstract】 Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of HA mixed with adenovirus mediated rhBMP-2 gene (AdvrhBMP-2) transferred BMSCs of goats on distraction osteogenesis. Methods Nineteen adult goats were used for the experiment,no matter they were male or female, and the weight of the goats were 15-20 kg. The 10 mL marrow was obtained from theil iac crest of each goat. The BMSCs was expanded and passaged conventionally. The 3th BMSCs was infected by Adv-rhBMP-2 at 200 multipl icity of infection (MOI). The 1×108 infected BMSCs were digested by 0.25% trypsin and collected, then mixed with HA. The right tibia lengthening models were developed, and mixture with BMSCs was injected in the osteotomy position. The goats were divided randomly into 4 groups according to the material injected in operation, group A: Adv-rhBMP-2/BMSCs/HA (n=6); group B: Adv-rhBMP-2/BMSCs (n=5); group C: Adv-β-gal/BMSCs/HA (n=4); group D: sham without any injections (n=4). After a seven-day latency period following ostectomy, distraction was carried out at a rate of 1 mm/day for 4 weeks. Roentgenography was practiced in 5, 8 and 12 weeks. After 12 weeks, the goats were sacrificed and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), biomechanical test and histology results were studied. Results After five and eight weeks surgery, X-raytest showed the distraction callus was more in group A and B than group C and D, and the radiographic score was significantly higher in group A and B than in the other two groups(P lt; 0.05); after 12 weeks surgery, the continued callus was formed in the distraction defects in all groups. DXA showed the mean bone mineral content of distraction callus in group A, B, C, D was (4.175 ± 1.921), (2.600 ± 0.638), (2.425 ± 0.826) and (1.175 ± 0.574) g, and the mean bone mineral density was (0.612 ± 0.196), (0.630 ± 0.159), (0.450 ± 0.166) and (0.266 ± 0.113) g/cm2. The group A and B was significantly higher than group C and D (P lt; 0.05).Biomechanical test showed the maximum loading of group A, B, C, D was (490.20 ± 155.08), (350.59 ± 80.48), (221.95 ± 68.79) and (150.65 ± 92.29) N, and elastic modulus was (178.24 ± 105.80), (105.88 ± 27.09), (81.18 ± 48.67) and (50.35 ± 47.64) MPa. The group A was significantly higher than in group C and D (P lt; 0.05). Histology observation revealed abundant bone formation in the distraction defects in group A, and the bone trabecula was arranged longitudinal and netl ike. Histomorphology analysis revealed the bone volume in group A, B, C, D was 72.35% ± 5.68%, 67.58% ± 7.42%, 49.63% ± 4.87% and 38.87% ± 2.35%, and the bone formation was significantly greater in group A compared with group D (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion HA mixed with rhBMP-2 modified BMSCs can accelerate distraction osteogenesis in goats.

    【Abstract】 Objective To investigate the manufacture and biocompatibil ity of a bioabsorbable poly-D,L-lactic acid(PDLLA) plate containing rhBMP-2. Methods rhBMP-2 was composited with PDLLA (0.05 mg/plate) through vacuum to repare PDLLA plate containing rhBMP-2. Thirty-two New Zealand rabbits (male or female) weighted (3.0 ± 0.5) kg were used in he study. A 2.5 mm middle ulna osteotomy was made bilaterally. The bones as well as periosteum were removed. The right side of all the animals was experimental side (n=32), was fixed internally by PDLLA plate containing rhBMP-2.The left side of all the animals was control side (n=32), was fixed by common PDLLA plate. After a follow-up of 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks, the ulnas were examined visually, radiographically, histologically, and by computer graph analysis to compare the biocompatibil ity. Re sults Po rosity of PDLLA plate containing rhBMP-2 was 90%, aperture was 150 μm, tensile strength was higher than 50 MPa, three point flexural strength was higher than 90 MPa and intrinsic viscosity was 1.6 dL/g (chloroform solvent). All animals had a good heal ing 1 or 2 weeks after operation. All the animal’s diet and movement were normal. All the fractures were stable. The plates in the experimental group degraded faster than those in the control group. Relative values of callus density evaluated by X-ray at 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks after operation in the experimental group were 39.22 ± 2.48, 48.79 ± 1.26, 63.78 ± 1.78 and 78.60 ± 1.25 respectively. Those in the control defects were 33.83 ± 1.13, 41.28 ± 1.25, 55.23 ± 0.68 and 66.54 ± 1.33. At each time point, the experimental side produced better and more trabeculae than the control side did (P < 0.01). Histological examination showed that the newbone formation in the experimental side at 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks after operation was 0.106% ± 0.015%, 0.292% ± 0.019%, 0.457% ± 0.048% and 0.601% ± 0.037%, while those in the control side was 0, 0.193% ± 0.019%, 0.339% ± 0.029% and 0.574% ± 0.047%respectively. At each time point, the experimental side produced better new bone formation than the control side did (P lt; 0.05). The experimental side showed better compatibil ity between plates and surrounding tissue, faster bone formation, more bone regeneration mass and better medullary canal structure than the control side. Conclusion PDLLA plate containing rhBMP-2 has good biocompatibil ity and osteoinducibil ity to enhance fracture heal ing.

  • CONSTRUCTION OF INDUCIBLE LENTIVIRAL VECTOR CONTAINING HUMAN BONE MORPHOGENETIC PROTEIN 2 GENE AND ITS EXPRESSION IN HUMAN UMBILICAL CORD BLOOD MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS

    Objective To construct inducible lentiviral vector containing human bone morphogenetic protein 2 (hBMP-2) gene and to study its expression in human umbil ical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells (HUMSCs). Methods hBMP-2 gene was ampl ified by PCR from a plasmid and was cloned into pDown by BP reaction. pLV/EXPN2-Neo-TRE-hBMP-2 and pLV/EXPN2-Puro-EF1A-reverse transactivator (rtTA) were obtained with GATEWAY technology, and then were sequenced and analyzed by PCR. The recombinant vectors were transfected into 293FT cells respectively through l ipofectamine, and the lentiviral viruses were harvested from 293FT cells, then the titer was determined. Viruses were used to infect HUMSCs in tandem. In order to research the influence of induction time and concentration, one group of HUMSCs was induced by different doxycl ine concentrations (0, 10, 100 ng/mL, and 1, 10, 100 μg/mL) in the same induction time (48 hours), and the other by the same concentration (10 μg/mL) in different time points (12, 24, 48, and 72 hours). The expression of target gene hBMP-2 was indentified by ELISA method. After 2-week osteogenic induction of transfected HUMSCs, the mineral ization nodes were detected with Al izarin bordeaux staining method. Results Therecombinant inducible lentiviral vectors (pLV/EXPN2-Neo-TRE-hBMP-2 and pLV/EXPN2-Puro-EF1A-rtTA) were successfully constructed. The lentiviruses were also obtained and mediated by 293FT cells, and the virus titers were 3.5 × 108 TU/mL and 9.5 × 107 TU/mL respectively. HUMSCs could expression hBMP-2 by induction of doxycycl ine. The expression of hBMP-2 reached the peak at 10 μg/mL doxycl ine at 48 hours of induction. After 2-week osteogenic induction, a lot of mineral ization nodes were observed. Conclusion The recombinant inducible lentiviral vectors containing hBMP-2 gene can be successfully constructed, which provide an effective and simple method for the further study of stem cells and animal experiment in vivo.
