Repair of diaphyseal bone defects with calcitriol-loaded PLGA scaffolds and marrow stromal cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Calcitriol (1,25(OH)2D3)-loaded porous poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) scaffolds prepared by solvent casting/salt leaching method were used to repair a 1.5 cm diaphyseal segmental bone defect as a fully absorbable osteogenic biomaterial. The in vitro release of sulforhodamine B (SRB) from PLGA scaffold was measured using spectrophotometer, considering SRB as a model drug. The SRB released from SRB-incorporated PLGA scaffold during 3 months was with relatively low initial burst. The calcitriol-loaded PLGA scaffolds with or without marrow stromal cells (MSCs) were implanted in a critical-sized intercalated bone defect in rabbit femur. Defects were assessed by radiographs until 9 weeks. The bony union of the defect was observed only in the calcitriol-loaded groups. RT-PCR results indicated that MSCs, which were seeded into calcitriol-loaded scaffold, expressed an increased level of alkaline phosphatase, osteonectin, and type I collagen mRNA at day 10. After 2 and 4 weeks, the implanted scaffolds were evaluated by histology. New osteoid matrix and direct calcium deposits were more evident in calcitriol/PLGA/MSC group. Three-dimensional computed tomography and frontal tomographic images of repaired femur showed that normal femur anatomy had been restored with cortical bone with no implanted PLGA remnants at 20 weeks. It can be concluded that the porous calcitriol-loaded PLGA scaffold combined with MSCs may be a novel method for repairing the large loaded bone defect. 相似文献

Adipose tissue derived stromal cells (ATSCs), which were isolated from adipose tissue of rabbit, have shown to possess multipotential, that is, they differentiate into osteoblasts and adipocytes in plate-culturing and into chondrocytes in an established aggregate culture using defined differentiation-inductive medium. The aim of this study was to evaluate the utility of ATSCs in tissue engineering procedures for repair of articular cartilage-defects using the atelocollagen honeycomb-shaped scaffold with a membrane sealing (ACHMS-scaffold). We intended to repair full-thickness articular cartilage defects in rabbit knees using autologously cultured ATSCs embedded in the ACHMS-scaffold. ATSCs were incubated within the ACHMS-scaffold to allow a high density and three-dimensional culture with control medium. An articular cartilage defect was created on the patellar groove of the femur, and the defect was filled with the ATSCs-containing ACHMS-scaffold, ACHMS-scaffold alone, or empty (control). Twelve weeks after the operation, the histological analyses showed that only the defects treated with the ATSCs-containing ACHMS-scaffold were filled with reparative hyaline cartilage, highly expressed Type II collagen. These results indicate that transplantation of autologous ATSCs-containing ACHMS-scaffold is effective in repairing articular cartilage defects. 相似文献

Simultaneous injection of bone marrow cells and stromal cells into bone marrow accelerates hematopoiesis in vivo 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Zhang Y Adachi Y Suzuki Y Minamino K Iwasaki M Hisha H Song CY Kusafuka K Nakano K Koike Y Wang J Koh E Cui Y Li C Ikehara S 《Stem cells (Dayton, Ohio)》2004,22(7):1256-1262
We have previously demonstrated that stromal cells can support the proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic cells in vitro and in vivo and that a major histocompatibility complex restriction exists between hematopoietic stem cells and stromal cells. We have also found that intra-bone marrow (IBM) injection of allogeneic bone marrow cells (BMCs) leads to more rapid reconstitution of hematopoietic cells than intravenous injection. In the present study, we examine the effect of simultaneous injection of stromal cells and BMCs into the same bone marrow on the recovery of donor hematopoietic cells and demonstrate that simultaneous IBM injection of BMCs plus stromal cells is more effective in reconstituting recipients with donor hematopoietic cells than intravenous injection of BMCs plus stromal cells or IBM injection of BMCs alone. 相似文献

We developed a natural, acellular, 3-D interconnected porous scaffold derived from cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM). Human cartilage was physically shattered, then decellularized sequentially with use of hypotonic buffer, TritonX-100, and a nuclease solution and made into a suspension. The scaffold was fabricated by simple freeze-drying and cross-linking techniques. On histology, scaffolds showed most of the ECM components after removal of the cell fragments, and scanning electron microscopy revealed a 3-D interconnected porous structure. Cellular viability assay revealed no cytotoxic effects. In vitro study showed that the novel scaffold could provide a suitable 3-D environment to support the adheration, proliferation and differentiation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) to chondrocytes in culture with chondrogenic medium after 21 days. Chondrogenically induced BMSCs labeled with fluorescent dye PKH26 were then grown on scaffolds and implanted subcutaneously into nude mice. Four weeks later, cartilage-like tissue formed, with positive staining for Safranin O, tuoluidine blue and collagen II. Cells in the samples seemed to confirm that they originated from the labeled BMSCs, as confirmed by in vivo fluorescent imaging and immunofluorescence examination. In conclusion, the cartilage ECM-derived porous scaffold shows potential as biomaterial for cartilage tissue engineering, and PKH26 fluorescent labeling and in vivo fluorescent imaging can be useful for cell tracking and analyzing cell-scaffold constructs in vivo. 相似文献

Introduction
Large osseous defect remains a serious clinical problem due to the lack of sufficient blood supply and it has been proposed that this situation can be relieved by accelerating the formation of new vessels in the process of bone defect repair. The aim of this study was to develop a new type of artificial bone by transferring the VEGF gene into marrow stromal cells (MSCs) and seeding them into a porous scaffold.Material and methods
An adenovirus vector was employed to transfer the VEGF gene into MSCs and expression of the exogenous gene was confirmed by ELISA. Next the transduced cells were seeded into a collagen I modified PLGA/TCP scaffold. The constructed new complex artificial bone was then assessed for biocompatibility in vitro and blood vessel formation and bone formation in vivo.Results
We found that adenovirus mediated VEGF gene transfer into MSCs sustained VEGF expression in MSCs for 3 weeks. Porous scaffold PLGA/TCP made by rapid prototyping technology exhibited improved biocompatibility resulting from crosslinking with collagen I. Furthermore, the in vivo study showed that large amounts of blood vessels were detected histologically 1 week after artificial bone implantation, and significant bone formation was detected 8 weeks after implantation.Conclusions
Our findings suggest that gene transfer of VEGF into MSCs combined with PLGA/TCP scaffold enhances bone repair in vivo by promoting vascularization. 相似文献6.

To investigate the potential application of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) and an injectable sodium alginate/gelatin scaffold for bone tissue engineering (BTE). The phenotype of osteogenic BMSCs was examined by mineralized nodules formation and type I collagen expression. Cell proliferation was evaluated by MTT assay. The biocompatibility of scaffold and osteogenic cells were examined by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining. Ectopic bone formation as well as closure of rabbit calvarial critical-sized defects following scaffold-cell implantation were analyzed by histological examination and computed tomography (CT) scanning. Spindle-shaped osteogenic cells of high purity were derived from BMSCs. The osteogenic cells and sodium alginate/gelatin (2:3) scaffold presented fine biocompatibility following cross-linking with 0.6% of CaCl(2). After implantation, the scaffold-cell construct promoted both ectopic bone formation and bone healing in the rabbit calvarial critical-sized defect model. Our data demonstrated that the sodium alginate/gelatin scaffold could be a suitable biomaterial for bone engineering, and the scaffold-osteogenic cells construct is a promising alternative approach for the bone healing process. 相似文献

We have recently demonstrated that indentation-type atomic force microscopy (IT-AFM) is capable of detecting early onset osteoarthritis (OA) (Stolz, 2009). This study was based on biopsies, using a desk-top commercial atomic force microscope (AFM). However, cartilage analysis in the knee joints needs to be non-destructive to avoid new seeding points for OA by the taking of biopsies. This requires bringing the probe tip in contact with the articular cartilage (AC) surface inside the joint. Here we present our recent progress towards a medical instrument for performing such IT-AFM measurements for in-vivo knee diagnostics. The scanning force arthroscope (SFA) integrates a miniaturized AFM into a standard arthroscopic sleeve, and is used for direct, quantitative, in situ inspection of AC (Imer et al., 2006). The stabilization and the positioning of the instrument relative to the surface under investigation were performed by means of eight inflatable balloons. An integrated three-dimensional, piezoelectric scanner allowed raster scanning and probing of a small area of cartilage around the point of insertion. An AFM probe with an integrated deflection sensor was mounted at the distal end of the instrument. Using this instrument, several measurements were performed on agarose gel and on porcine cartilage samples. The load-displacement curves obtained were analyzed and the dynamic elastic moduli | E(*) | were calculated. A good correlation between these values and those published in the scientific literature was found. Therefore, we concluded that the SFA can provide quantitative measurements to detect early pathological changes in OA. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of maxillary sinus floor elevation by a tissue-engineered bone complex with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2)-loaded porous calcium phosphate cement (CPC) scaffold and bone marrow stromal cells (bMSCs) in rabbits. bMSCs were cultured and osteogenically induced. The osteoblastic differentiation of expanded bMSCs was detected by alkaline phosphatase activity, and calcium deposits in vitro. Thirty-six rabbits were randomly allocated into week 2, 4 and 8 observation groups. At each time point, 24 maxillary sinus floor elevation surgeries in 12 rabbits were performed bilaterally and randomly implanted by (1) CPC materials alone (group A, n = 6), (2) rhBMP-2/CPC composite materials alone (group B, n = 6), (3) CPC/bMSCs complex (group C, n = 6) and (4) rhBMP-2/CPC/bMSCs complex (group D, n = 6). As for maxillary sinus floor elevation, rhBMP-2-loaded CPC could promote new bone formation as compared to CPC, while addition of bMSCs could further enhance its new bone formation and maturity significantly, as detected by histological findings, and fluorochrome labeling. Our data suggested that rhBMP-2/CPC possessed excellent osteoinductive ability, while combining with bMSCs could further promote new bone formation and maturation in maxillary sinus elevation. 相似文献

A cell-based engineered construct can be used for healing of intractable meniscal lesions. Our aims were to assess the culture conditions (static versus dynamic oscillation) and the healing capacity of the chondrocyte-seeded flexible implants in a heterotopic mouse model. Swine articular chondrocytes were labeled with PKH 26 or DiI dye and seeded onto a flexible PLGA scaffold using dynamic oscillating conditions for 24 h. Half of cell-seeded scaffolds were cultured in the same dynamic conditions, while the remaining scaffolds were cultured statically. After 7 days, scaffolds were placed between swine meniscal discs and were implanted subcutaneously in nude mice for 6 weeks. Additional constructs for assessing in vivo cell tracking were implanted for 12 weeks. Live/dead assays demonstrated labeled chondrocytes attached throughout the scaffold in both culture conditions. DNA measurements showed no significant difference between the culture conditions. A continuous fibro-cartilaginous healing tissue was observed between meniscal discs in all 12 dynamically cultured constructs and 9 of 11 statically cultured ones. There was no evidence of meniscal healing using acellular scaffold as well as in meniscal constructs lacking an implant. Both PKH 26- and DiI-labeled cells were identified along the healing interface. We conclude the chondrocyte-seeded flexible PLGA implants induce healing of meniscal discs in nude mice. Culture conditions after seeding have no apparent effects on healing. 相似文献

Repair of porcine articular osteochondral defects in non-weightbearing areas with autologous bone marrow stromal cells 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
In vivo niche is known to play important roles in terminal differentiation of implanted bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs). This study explored the feasibility of repairing articular osteochondral defects using autologous BMSCs and biodegradable polymers. BMSCs from 18 hybrid pigs' marrows were either treated with dexamethasone (40 ng/mL) alone or chondrogenically induced with dexamethasone and transforming growth factor-beta1 (10 ng/mL). The cells were seeded respectively onto polylactic acid (PLA)- coated polyglycolic acid (PGA) scaffolds. Four osteochondral defects in each animal were created at non-weightbearing areas of knee joints (2/each side) and were respectively repaired by a chondrogenically induced BMSC-PGA/PLA construct in experimental group (Exp), by a dexamethasone-treated BMSC-PGA/PLA construct in control 1 group (Ctrl 1), by a PGA/PLA construct alone in control 2 group (Ctrl 2), or left unrepaired in control 3 group (Ctrl 3). To trace the implanted cells, green fluorescent protein (GFP)- labeled BMSCs were implanted in 2 animals. Gross view and histology showed that Exp and Ctrl 1 (with cell implantation) achieved better reparative results than Ctrl 2 and Ctrl 3 (without cell implantation) in terms of the reparative level and the restoration of the histological structure. In addition, 6-month results were better than 3-month results in all 4 groups. In Exp, 11 of 16 defects were completely repaired by hyaline cartilage and cancellous bone. In Ctrl 1, 11 of 16 defects were repaired by fibrocartilage and cancellous bone, although the repair with hyaline cartilage and cancellous bone was observed in 5 of 16 defects. In contrast, no obvious repair or only fibrotic tissue was observed in Ctrl 2 and Ctrl 3. The compressive moduli of repaired cartilage in Exp reached 80.27% of the normal amount at 6 months, with a high level of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) content (no statistical difference from normal). In Ctrl 1, the compressive moduli and GAG content were 62.69% and 78.03% of normal levels, respectively. More importantly, GFP-labeled cells were detected in the engineered cartilage and the repaired subchondral bone. These results strongly indicate that the implanted BMSCs can differentiate into either chondrocytes or osteoblasts and repair articular osteochondral defects by forming engineered cartilage and engineered bone. 相似文献

Resorbable porous ceramic constructs, based on silicon-stabilized tricalcium phosphate, were implanted in critical-size defects of sheep tibias, either alone or after seeding with bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC). Only BMSC-loaded ceramics displayed a progressive scaffold resorption, coincident with new bone deposition. To investigate the coupled mechanisms of bone formation and scaffold resorption, X-ray computed microtomography (muCT) with synchrotron radiation was performed on BMSC-seeded ceramic cubes. These were analyzed before and after implantation in immunodeficient mice for 2 or 6 months. With increasing implantation time, scaffold thickness significantly decreased while bone thickness increased. The muCT data evidenced that all scaffolds showed a uniform density distribution before implantation. Areas of different segregated densities were instead observed, in the same scaffolds, once seeded with cells and implanted in vivo. A detailed muX-ray diffraction analysis revealed that only in the contact areas between deposited bone and scaffold, the TCP component of the biomaterial decreased much faster than the HA component. This event did not occur at areas away from the bone surface, highlighting coupling and cell-dependency of the resorption and matrix deposition mechanisms. Moreover, in scaffolds implanted without cells, both the ceramic density and the TCP:HA ratio remained unchanged with respect to the pre-implantation analysis. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to regenerate a meniscus using a scaffold from a normal meniscus and mesenchymal stromal cells derived from bone marrow (BM-MSCs). Thirty Sprague-Dawley rat menisci were excised and freeze-thawed three times with liquid nitrogen to kill the original meniscal cells. Bone marrow was aspirated from enhanced green fluorescent protein transgenic Sprague-Dawley rats. BM-MSCs were isolated, cultured for 2 weeks, and 2 x 10(5) cells were then seeded onto the meniscal scaffolds. Using a fluorescent microscope and immunohistochemical staining, repopulation of enhanced green fluorescent protein positive cells was observed in the superficial zone of the scaffold after 1 week of culture, and then in the deep zone after 2 weeks. At 4 weeks, expression of extracellular matrices was detected histologically and expression of mRNA for aggrecan and type X collagen was detected. Stiffness of the cultured tissue, assessed by the indentation stiffness test, had increased significantly after 2 weeks in culture, and approximated the stiffness of a normal meniscus. From this study, we conclude that a scaffold derived from a normal meniscus seeded with BM-MSCs can form a meniscus approximating a normal meniscus. 相似文献

Knitted poly-lactide-co-glycolide scaffold loaded with bone marrow stromal cells in repair and regeneration of rabbit Achilles tendon 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
The objectives of this study were to evaluate the morphology and biomechanical function of Achilles tendons regenerated using knitted poly-lactide-co-glycolide (PLGA) loaded with bone marrow stromal cells (bMSCs). The animal model used was that of an adult female New Zealand White rabbit with a 10-mm gap defect of the Achilles tendon. In group I, 19 hind legs with the created defects were treated with allogeneic bMSCs seeded on knitted PLGA scaffold. In group II, the Achilles tendon defects in 19 hind legs were repaired using the knitted PLGA scaffold alone, and in group III, 6 hind legs were used as normal control. The tendon-implant constructs of groups I and II were evaluated postoperatively at 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks using macroscopic, histological, and immunohistochemical techniques. In addition, specimens from group I (n = 7), group II (n = 7), and group III (n = 6) were harvested for biomechanical test 12 weeks after surgery. Postoperatively, at 2 and 4 weeks, the histology of group I specimens exhibited a higher rate of tissue formation and remodeling as compared with group II, whereas at 8 and 12 weeks postoperation, the histology of both group I and group II was similar to that of native tendon tissue. The wound sites of group I healed well and there was no apparent lymphocyte infiltration. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that the regenerated tendons were composed of collagen types I and type III fibers. The tensile stiffness and modulus of group I were 87 and 62.6% of normal tendon, respectively, whereas those of group II were about 56.4 and 52.9% of normal tendon, respectively. These results suggest that the knitted PLGA biodegradable scaffold loaded with allogeneic bone marrow stromal cells has the potential to regenerate and repair gap defect of Achilles tendon and to effectively restore structure and function. 相似文献

Mesenchymal stromal cells are promising candidate donor cells for promoting functional tissue repair following traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI), however, the mechanism(s) of action remain poorly defined. Here, we describe an in vitro study of the axon growth-promoting properties of highly enriched populations of adult human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSC). A random, non-oriented pattern of neuritic outgrowth was observed from dissociated adult rat DRG neurons seeded onto confluent A431 cells and PLL/laminin positive control substrata. Confluent hMSC formed arrays of similarly orientated cell bodies and processes which supported the regeneration of significantly more primary neurites but a slightly lower overall neuritic length than was observed over the PLL/laminin control substrate. The hMSC exerted a strong influence on the direction of neuritic outgrowth, with many regenerating processes following the orientation of underlying hMSC. The production of extracellular matrix appeared to be responsible for neuritic directionality, but the release of growth factors was a significant promoter for DRG neuritic outgrowth. This suggests that further investigations into the properties of hMSC may be of particular interest in the development of transplant-mediated strategies intending to promote functional axonal regeneration after SCI. 相似文献

Bone and cartilage tissue constructs grown using human bone marrow stromal cells, silk scaffolds and rotating bioreactors 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Human bone marrow contains a population of bone marrow stromal cells (hBMSCs) capable of forming several types of mesenchymal tissues, including bone and cartilage. The present study was designed to test whether large cartilaginous and bone-like tissue constructs can be selectively engineered using the same cell population (hBMSCs), the same scaffold type (porous silk) and same hydrodynamic environment (construct settling in rotating bioreactors), by varying the medium composition (chondrogenic vs. osteogenic differentiation factors). The hBMSCs were harvested, expanded and characterized with respect to their differentiation potential and population distribution. Passage two cells were seeded on scaffolds and cultured for 5 weeks in bioreactors using osteogenic, chondrogenic or control medium. The three media yielded constructs with comparable wet weights and compressive moduli (25 kPa). Chondrogenic medium yielded constructs with higher amounts of DNA (1.5-fold) and glycosaminoglycans (GAG, 4-fold) per unit wet weight (ww) than control medium. In contrast, osteogenic medium yielded constructs with higher dry weight (1.6-fold), alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity (8-fold) and calcium content (100-fold) per unit ww than control medium. Chondrogenic medium yielded constructs that were weakly positive for GAG by contrast-enhanced MRI and alcian blue stain, whereas osteogenic medium yielded constructs that were highly mineralized by μCT and von Kossa stain. Engineered bone constructs were large (8 mm diameter × 2 mm thick disks) and resembled trabecular bone with respect to structure and mineralized tissue volume fraction (12%). 相似文献
