Research Abstract |
Our study aimed to determine whether in vivo osteogenesis could be enhanced using allogenic irradiated bone grafts after seeding with tissue-engineered autologous bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). We used rat experimental model. The allogenic bone samples were extracted from ACI rat bone and sterilized by irradiation. Donor BMSCs were obtained from Fischer 344 rat bone marrow by cell culture. The allogenic bone with or without BMSCs were transplanted subcutaneously into syngenetic F344 rats. At 2, 4 weeks after transplantation, alkaline phosphatase activity, osteocalcin mRNA expression and histological examination were detected. These biochemical values were gradually increased. New bone was found in histological section. Furthermore, we studied the origin of the new bone. It was derived from cultured donor BMSCs after 4 weeks transplantation at least. These results indicate the availability of autologous tissue-engineered BMSCs to heighten the osteogenic response.
