| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed a novel vascularized tissue-engineered bone (VTEB). Using rat models, a vascular bundle of femoral artery and vein was passed through the groove of the β-tricalcium phosphate ceramics (βTCP). Osteogenic matrix cell sheets (OMCS) wrapped around vascular bundles within βTCP. Four weeks after the implantation of the vascular pedicle, the VTEB was elevated as a single vascular peddled VTEB, implanted to the same site wrapping with a silastic sheet to prevent blood supply from surrounding tissue. Additional 4 weeks after this manipulation, the VTEB was harvested to evaluate angiogenic and osteogenic potentials. As a results, the VTEB combined with OMCS maintained a high angiogenic and osteogenic potential even after elevation as a pedicled VTEB. From the results of this study, the vascularized βTCP combined with OMCS is expected to be a powerful tool of bone reconstruction for the treatment of intractable nonunions with massive bone defects.
