Adipose-derived stem cell sheets accelerate bone healing in rat femoral defects.

ABSTRACT: In the present study, we investigated whether both adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) and osteogenic-induced ADSC sheets could promote bone healing in a rat distal femoral metaphysis bone defect model. A through-hole defect of 1 mm diameter was drilled into each distal femur of 12 week old rats. Forty-five rats were randomly assigned to three groups: (1) control group; (2) ADSC sheet group; or (3) osteogenic-induced ADSC sheet group. We evaluated each group by analysis of computerized tomography scans every week after the surgery, histological analysis, and DiI labeling (a method of membrane staining for post implant cell tracing). Radiological and histological evaluations showed that a part of the hole persisted in the control group at four weeks after surgery, whereas the hole was restored almost completely by new bone formation in both sheet groups. The mean value of bone density (in Houndsfield units) for the bone defect area was significantly higher in both sheet groups than that in the control group (p = 0.05) at four weeks postoperative. A large number of osteocalcin positive osteoblasts were observed at the area of bone defect, especially in the osteogenic-induced ADCS sheet group. DiI labeling in the newly formed bone showed that each sheet had differentiated into bone tissue at four weeks after surgery. The ADSC and the osteogenic-induced ADSC sheets promoted significantly quicker bone healing in the bone defect. Moreover, the osteogenic-induced ADSC sheet may be more advantageous for bone healing than the ADSC sheet because of the higher number of osteocalcin positive osteoblasts via the transplantation.

Project description:BackgroundAt present, bone union delay or failure remains challenging for clinicians. It has been reported that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) offer a promising way to promote bone fracture healing. In recent years, nanomaterials have been applied in regenerative medicine. This study aimed to investigate whether ADMSCs combined with platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) could further improve fracture healing on the basis of ADMSCs.MethodsADMSCs were co-cultured with PtNPs in vitro to investigate the effect of PtNPs on the differentiation of ADMSCs. Twenty Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into four groups (with five rats in each group). The left tibias of all rats were fractured. Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), PtNPs, ADMSC, and ADMSC mixed with PtNPs were then injected into the fracture sites based on the group classifications. The fracture was monitored by X-ray immediately after the fracture and on days 14 and 28 post-fracture. The tibias of the rats were subsequently harvested after the last X-ray and evaluated by micro computed tomography (micro-CT), histological analysis, and immunohistochemical detection.ResultsPtNPs significantly enhanced the osteogenic differentiation of ADMSCs in vitro. On days 14 and 28 post-fracture, the radiographic score of the ADMSC + PtNPs group was higher than that of the ADMSC group, the score of the ADMSC group was higher than that of the PtNPs and control groups, and there was no significant difference between the PtNPs and control groups. Micro-CT confirmed that combined ADMSCs with PtNPs were more effective than using ADMSCs alone in promoting fracture healing. The histological and immunohistochemical results further supported this conclusion.ConclusionsOur findings demonstrated that PtNPs could promote osteogenic differentiation of ADMSC in vitro. ADMSCs combined with PtNPs could accelerate fracture healing further in vivo and are a promising a potential method for the treatment of fracture healing.

Project description:BackgroundBone grafts simultaneously delivering therapeutic proteins and antibiotics may be valuable in orthopaedic trauma care. Previously, we developed a poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)-nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (pHEMA-nHA) synthetic bone graft that, when preabsorbed with 400-ng rhBMP-2/7, facilitated the functional repair of critical-size rat femoral defects. Recently, we showed that pHEMA-nHA effectively retains/releases vancomycin and rhBMP-2 in vitro. The success of such a strategy requires that the incorporation of vancomycin does not compromise the structural integrity of the graft nor its ability to promote bone healing.Questions/purposes(1) To evaluate the ability of pHEMA-nHA-vancomycin composites in combination with 3-µg rhBMP-2 to repair 5 mm rat femoral segmental defects, and (2) To determine if the encapsulated vancomycin impairs the graft/rhBMP-2-assisted bone repair.MethodspHEMA-nHA-vancomycin, pHEMA-nHA, or collagen sponge control with/without 3-µg rhBMP-2 were press-fit in 5 mm femoral defects in SASCO-SD male rats (289-300 g). Histology, microcomputed tomography, and torsion testing were performed on 8- and 12-week explants to evaluate the extent and quality of repair. The effect of vancomycin on the temporal absorption of endogenous BMP-2 and stromal cell-derived factor-1 was evaluated by immunohistochemistry. These factors are important for bone healing initiation and stem cell recruitment, respectively.ResultsPartial bridging of the defect with bony callus by 12 weeks was observed with pHEMA-nHA-vancomycin without rhBMP-2 while full bridging with substantially mineralized callus and partial restoration of torsional strength was achieved with 3-µg rhBMP-2. The presence of vancomycin changed the absorption patterns of endogenous proteins on the grafts, but did not appear to substantially compromise graft healing.ConclusionsThe composite pHEMA-nHA-vancomycin preabsorbed with 3-µg rhBMP-2 promoted repair of 5 mm rat femoral segmental defects. With the sample sizes applied, vancomycin encapsulation did not appear to have a negative effect on bone healing.Clinical relevancepHEMA-nHA-vancomycin preabsorbed with rhBMP-2 may be useful in the repair of critical-size long bone defects prone to infections.
