Research Abstract |
In BM-DFAT prepared from bone marrow fluid from patients undergoing implant arthroplasty, osteogenic-specific genes were expressed equivalently in BM-MSC prepared from same donor. Alkaline phosphatase was strongly expressed before and during osteogenic differentiation induction, and mineralized matrix aggregates were observed after 2 weeks of differentiation induction by staining for alizarin red S. In a mouse bone fracture model, bone density in BM-DFAT grafts were significantly higher compared with those in control grafts. In BM-DFAT prepared from bone marrow fluid from patients with aplastic anemia, proteins and mRNA levels for SDF-1 were significantly higher than BM-MSC prepared from same donor. Implantation of these BM-DFAT and human umbilical cord blood (UCB) CD34+ cells into a NOD/SCID mouse model of graft failure of human UCB resulted in a detection of human blood cell fractions. These results indicated BM-DFAT possess the promoting effects of engraftment of human UCB.
