Transfer of bone-marrow microenvironment by clones of stromal mechanocytes

Colonies consistign of clones of bone-marrow stromal fibroblasts, grown in monolayer cultures of mouse and guinea pig bone-marrow cells, transfer the hematopoietic microenvironment on retransplantation into the animal. Individual clones simultaneously form bone tissue and create a microenvironment for all three branches of medullary hematopoiesis: erythroid, myeloid, and megakaryocytio.Laboratory of Immunomorphology, N.

Effect of thyrocalcitonin on the mineral component of regenerating bone during healing of fractures

Changes in the state of the mineral component of bone tissue (hydroxyapatite) during reparative regeneration of bone after administration of thyrocalcitonin (TCT) were studied in experiments on rabbits. Methods of histology, quantitative microroentgenography, and x-ray diffraction were used. TCT has no marked stimulant effect on normal osteogenesis and mineralization of newly formed bone tissue. However, mineralization of the callus follows an optimal course and osteoporosis of the fragments is much less marked than in animals not receiving TCT.Central Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics, Ministry of Health of the USSR.

Conditions affecting induction of osteogenesis after implantation of bone matrix into mice

Induction of osteogenesis was observed in 90–100% of cases of implantation of decalcified bone matrix intramuscularly into mice, beneath the kidney capsule, beneath the kidney capsule after ligation of the blood vessels, and intramuscularly into animals after curettage of the medullary canal of the femur. No morphological differences were found under these circumstances. Both implants with large bone lamellae filled with medullary cells and implants with small areas of osteogenic tissues were found in each series of experiments. It is concluded that the induction process is independent both of the degree of vascularization of the implantation site and of the degree of calcification of the surrounding tissue, and it is evidently determined by the presence of inducible cells susceptible to the induction stimulus.Laboratory of Immunomorphology, N.
