Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, dermal fibroblasts with greater differentiation capacities were successfully isolated by flowcytometry technique and three antibodies. When these selected cells were cultured with osteogenic medium and BMP-containing medium, significantly higher expression of osteogenic genes and greater numbers of mineralized nodules by Von-Kossa staining were demonstrated compared to the unselected cells. These results indicate that rapid bone regeneration can be achieved by selecting skin cells with high differentiation capacities and locally administering these cells with BMP proteins.
