[PMID: 38735373 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2024.117123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2024] [Revised: 05/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/14/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate osteogenic differentiation processes and influence the development of osteoporosis (OP). This study aimed to investigate the potential role of miR-466 l-3p in OP. METHODS The expression levels of miR-466 l-3p and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) were quantified in the trabeculae of the femoral neck of 40 individuals with or without OP using quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The impact of miR-466 l-3p or FGF23 expression on cell proliferation and the expression levels of runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), type I collagen (Col1), osteocalcin (OCN), osterix (OSX) and dentin matrix protein 1 (DMP1) was quantified in human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) overexpressing miR-466 l-3p. Furthermore, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining and alizarin red staining were performed to measure ALP activity and the levels of calcium deposition, respectively. In addition, bioinformatics analysis, luciferase reporter assays, and RNA pull-down assays were conducted to explore the molecular mechanisms underlying the effects of miR-466 l-3p and FGF23 in osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs. RESULTS The expression levels of miR-466 l-3p were significantly lower in femoral neck trabeculae of patients with OP than in the control cohort, whereas FGF23 levels exhibited the opposite trend. Furthermore, miR-466 l-3p levels were upregulated and FGF23 levels were downregulated in hBMSCs during osteogenic differentiation. Moreover, the high miR-466 l-3p expression enhanced the mRNA expression of RUNX2, Col1, OCN, OSX and DMP1, as well as cell proliferation, ALP activity, and calcium deposition in hBMSCs. FGF23 was found to be a direct target of miR-466 l-3p. FGF23 overexpression downregulated the expression of osteoblast markers and inhibited the osteogenic differentiation induced by miR-466 l-3p overexpression. qRT-PCR and Western blot assays showed that miR-466 l-3p overexpression decreased the expression levels of mRNAs and proteins associated with the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway, whereas FGF23 upregulation exhibited the opposite trend. CONCLUSION In conclusion, these findings suggest that miR-466 l-3p enhances the osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs by suppressing FGF23 expression, ultimately preventing OP.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE Due to the rarity of the Andersson lesion (AL), the literature is ambiguous regarding the type of surgical fixation, need for debridement and deformity correction. The purpose of this retrospective study is to evaluate the efficacy, feasibility and functional outcome of posterior fixation in AL. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study included 35 patients having thoracolumbar AL operated for in situ fixation and fusion with minimum of 24-month follow-up. VAS (Visual Analogue Score) back pain, ODI (Oswestry Disability Index), Frankel's grade were compared and analyzed. Union status was noted with complications. RESULTS The mean age of 35 patients was 56.34(± 11.3) years with average follow-up of 51.49 months. Two patients had AL at two levels. 27/37 AL were at discal level. Average estimated blood loss (EBL) was 276.43 ml and duration of surgery was 130.43 min. On an average, operated segments needed 7.77 screws. There were ten minor complications without long-term sequel. Neurological improvement was noted in 30 patients. Average preoperative VAS score improved from 8.69 to 3.14, ODI score improved from 68.76 to 18.77 at final follow-up which were significant (p < 0.05). There was significant improvement in Frankel's grading (Z = - 4.354, P = 0.00). CONCLUSIONS Surgical management of AL by posterior approach and posterior stabilization can give satisfactory results without the need of extensive anterior reconstruction, bone grafting or deformity correction procedures without added morbidity and complications.

J Periodontal Res 2022; 57:461-469. [PMID: 35137408 DOI: 10.1111/jre.12975] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2021] [Revised: 12/18/2021] [Accepted: 01/21/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Occlusal trauma is one of the most important local contributing factors of periodontitis. It has been reported that Wnt4, a noncanonical Wnt ligand, can inhibit osteoclast formation and inflammation and promote bone formation in vivo. However, the prospects of Wnt4 application in occlusal trauma and periodontitis have not yet been described. This study aimed to investigate the function and the corresponding mechanism of Wnt4 to regulate bone metabolism in occlusal trauma and periodontitis. MATERIAL AND METHODS Osteogenic-induced MC3T3-E1 cells were treated with or without Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (Pg. LPS) under cyclic uniaxial compressive stress. After treatment with mouse recombinant protein Wnt4 (rWnt4), the expression of osteogenic markers and activation of the IKK-NF-κB signaling pathway were evaluated in vitro. To investigate whether Wnt4 can promote osteogenesis via the ROCK signaling pathway, the expression of RhoA was evaluated in vitro. Finally, we evaluated the change in bone quantity and the activation of the IKK-NF-κB and ROCK signaling in mice with occlusal trauma and periodontitis to demonstrate the therapeutic efficacy of rWnt4 injection. RESULTS Stimulation of traumatic force and Pg. LPS stimulation suppressed the expression of osteoblast markers, but their expression was rescued after rWnt4 treatment in vitro. In addition, the inhibition of the ROCK signaling pathway induced by force loading was reversed when rWnt4 was applied in vitro. Micro-CT, H&E, and TRAP staining of the mandibles showed increased bone loss in the occlusal trauma-aggravated periodontitis group, whereas it was rescued after rWnt4 injection. The expression levels of IκBα and p65 were upregulated in occlusal trauma and periodontitis-bearing mice, whereas the expression levels of Runx2 and RhoA were downregulated. After rWnt4 injection, remarkably upregulation of Runx2 and RhoA expression was observed in occlusal trauma and periodontitis- bearing mice. CONCLUSION Wnt4 not only inhibits IKK-NF-κB signaling but also activates ROCK signaling to inhibit osteoclast formation and promote bone regeneration in occlusal trauma and periodontitis-bearing mice.

J Cell Mol Med 2022; 26:601-623. [PMID: 34984803 PMCID: PMC8817135 DOI: 10.1111/jcmm.17096] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2021] [Revised: 10/19/2021] [Accepted: 11/05/2021] [Indexed: 01/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Fracture non‐union represents a common complication, seen in 5%–10% of all acute fractures. Despite the enhancement in scientific understanding and treatment methods, rates of fracture non‐union remain largely unchanged over the years. This systematic review investigates the biological, molecular and genetic profiles of both (i) non‐union tissue and (ii) non–union‐related tissues, and the genetic predisposition to fracture non‐union. This is crucially important as it could facilitate earlier identification and targeted treatment of high‐risk patients, along with improving our understanding on pathophysiology of fracture non‐union. Since this is an update on our previous systematic review, we searched the literature indexed in PubMed Medline; Ovid Medline; Embase; Scopus; Google Scholar; and the Cochrane Library using Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) or Title/Abstract words (non‐union(s), non‐union(s), human, tissue, bone morphogenic protein(s) (BMPs) and MSCs) from August 2014 (date of our previous publication) to 2 October 2021 for non‐union tissue studies, whereas no date restrictions imposed on non–union‐related tissue studies. Inclusion criteria of this systematic review are human studies investigating the characteristics and properties of non‐union tissue and non–union‐related tissues, available in full‐text English language. Limitations of this systematic review are exclusion of animal studies, the heterogeneity in the definition of non‐union and timing of tissue harvest seen in the included studies, and the search term MSC which may result in the exclusion of studies using historical terms such as ‘osteoprogenitors’ and ‘skeletal stem cells’. A total of 24 studies (non‐union tissue: n = 10; non–union‐related tissues: n = 14) met the inclusion criteria. Soft tissue interposition, bony sclerosis of fracture ends and complete obliteration of medullary canal are commonest macroscopic appearances of non‐unions. Non‐union tissue colour and surrounding fluid are two important characteristics that could be used clinically to distinguish between septic and aseptic non‐unions. Atrophic non‐unions had a predominance of endochondral bone formation and lower cellular density, when compared against hypertrophic non‐unions. Vascular tissues were present in both atrophic and hypertrophic non‐unions, with no difference in vessel density between the two. Studies have found non‐union tissue to contain biologically active MSCs with potential for osteoblastic, chondrogenic and adipogenic differentiation. Proliferative capacity of non‐union tissue MSCs was comparable to that of bone marrow MSCs. Rates of cell senescence of non‐union tissue remain inconclusive and require further investigation. There was a lower BMP expression in non‐union site and absent in the extracellular matrix, with no difference observed between atrophic and hypertrophic non‐unions. The reduced BMP‐7 gene expression and elevated levels of its inhibitors (Chordin, Noggin and Gremlin) could potentially explain impaired bone healing observed in non‐union MSCs. Expression of Dkk‐1 in osteogenic medium was higher in non‐union MSCs. Numerous genetic polymorphisms associated with fracture non‐union have been identified, with some involving the BMP and MMP pathways. Further research is required on determining the sensitivity and specificity of molecular and genetic profiling of relevant tissues as a potential screening biomarker for fracture non‐unions.

Abstract
3D printed bioactive glass or bioceramic particle reinforced composite scaffolds for bone tissue engineering currently suffer from low particle concentration (<50 wt%) hence low osteoconductivity. Meanwhile, composites with very high inorganic particle concentrations are very brittle. Scaffolds combining high particle content and ductility are urgently required for bone tissue engineering. Herein, 3D printed PCL/hydroxyapatite (HA) scaffolds with high ceramic concentration (up to 90 wt%) are made ductile (>100% breaking strain) by adding poly(ethylene glycol) which is biocompatible and FDA approved. The scaffolds require no post-printing washing to remove hazardous components. More exposure of HA microparticles on strut surfaces is enabled by incorporating higher HA concentrations. Compared to scaffolds with 72 wt% HA, scaffolds with higher HA content (90 wt%) enhance matrix formation but not new bone volume after 12 weeks implantation in rat calvarial defects. Histological analyses demonstrate that bone regeneration within the 3D printed scaffolds is via intramembranous ossification and starts in the central region of pores. Fibrous tissue that resembles non-union tissue within bone fractures is formed within pores that do not have new bone. The amount of blood vessels is similar between scaffolds with mainly fibrous tissue and those with more bone tissue, suggesting vascularization is not a deciding factor for determining the type of tissues regenerated within the pores of 3D printed scaffolds. Multinucleated immune cells are commonly present in all scaffolds surrounding the struts, suggesting a role of managing inflammation in bone regeneration within 3D printed scaffolds.

Abstract
Non-union is a taxing complication of fracture management for both the patient and their surgeon. Modern fracture fixation techniques have been developed to optimise the biomechanical environment for fracture healing but do not guarantee union. Patient biology has a critical role in achieving union and stem cell therapy has potential for improving fracture healing at a cellular level to treat or avoid non-union. This article reviews the current understanding of non-union, concepts in bone healing and the current literature on the application of stem cells in non-union.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To comprehensively review the literature and summarize the results from human and animal studies related to the possible causes and pathogenesis of traumatic temporomandibular joint ankylosis (TMJA). MATERIALS AND METHODS The Google Scholar, Embase, and Web of Science databases were used to search for articles related to traumatic TMJA from 2011 to 2020. All articles were screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, collected, and analyzed. RESULTS Nineteen relevant articles were collected. These articles were classified into three groups: predisposing and etiological factors, cellular studies, and molecular studies. CONCLUSION The pathological mechanisms are similar between TMJA and nonunion hypertrophy. Aberrant structural and etiological factors as well as disordered cellular and molecular mechanisms might contribute to TMJA formation. Although preclinical and clinical data have provided new evidence on the pathogenesis of traumatic TMJA, the molecular mechanisms and biological events require further exploration.

Abstract
Delayed union or nonunion are relatively rare complications after fracture surgery, but when they do occur, they can result in substantial morbidity for the patient. In many cases, the etiology of impaired fracture healing is uncertain and attempts to determine the molecular basis for delayed union and nonunion formation have been limited. Prospectively isolating skeletal stem cells (SSCs) from fracture tissue samples at the time of surgical intervention represent a feasible methodology to determine a patient's biologic risk for compromised fracture healing. This report details a case in which functional in vitro readouts of SSCs derived from human fracture tissue at time of injury predicted a poor fracture healing outcome. This case suggests that it may be feasible to stratify a patient's fracture healing capacity and predict compromised fracture healing by prospectively isolating and analyzing SSCs during the index fracture surgery. © 2020 The Authors.

Abstract
New knowledge about the molecular biology of fracture-healing provides opportunities for intervention and reduction of risk for specific phases that are affected by disease and medications. Modifiable and nonmodifiable risk factors can prolong healing, and the informed clinician should optimize each patient to provide the best chance for union. Techniques to monitor progression of fracture-healing have not changed substantially over time; new objective modalities are needed.

One of the most dreaded complications of fracture management is a nonunion. Nonunions are usually difficult to manage and can be a source of significant mental, physical, and financial distress to the patient. The incidence of nonunion is dependent on multiple factors including degree of comminution, open versus closed, concomitant infection, and vascular status, and therefore the management of such nonunions continues to be an often debated topic. Currently, there is no clear consensus on the role of reamed exchange nailing for tibial shaft nonunions. While reamed exchange nailing for aseptic tibial shaft nonunions has shown promising results, with very high union rates, many surgeons prefer newer novel techniques such as plating along with osteoperiosteal decortication or the use of more conventional compressive plating with bone grafts. The aim of this article is to critically review and understand the available evidence base on reamed exchange nailing in nonunion of tibial shaft fractures and to explore the other options available and their indications.

Abstract
Fragility fractures have a limited capacity to regenerate, and impaired fracture healing is a leading cause of morbidity in the elderly. The recent identification of a highly purified bona fide human skeletal stem cell (hSSC) and its committed downstream progenitor cell populations provides an opportunity for understanding the mechanism of age‐related compromised fracture healing from the stem cell perspective. In this study, we tested whether hSSCs isolated from geriatric fractures demonstrate intrinsic functional defects that drive impaired healing. Using flow cytometry, we analyzed and isolated hSSCs from callus tissue of five different skeletal sites (n = 61) of patients ranging from 13 to 94 years of age for functional and molecular studies. We observed that fracture‐activated amplification of hSSC populations was comparable at all ages. However, functional analysis of isolated stem cells revealed that advanced age significantly correlated with reduced osteochondrogenic potential but was not associated with decreased in vitro clonogenicity. hSSCs derived from women displayed an exacerbated functional decline with age relative to those of aged men. Transcriptomic comparisons revealed downregulation of skeletogenic pathways such as WNT and upregulation of senescence‐related pathways in young versus older hSSCs. Strikingly, loss of Sirtuin1 expression played a major role in hSSC dysfunction but re‐activation by trans‐resveratrol or a small molecule compound restored in vitro differentiation potential. These are the first findings that characterize age‐related defects in purified hSSCs from geriatric fractures. Our results provide a foundation for future investigations into the mechanism and reversibility of skeletal stem cell aging in humans.

Abstract
Pain, physical dysfunction, and mental disorders caused by bone nonunion bring great burden to patients. Bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) isolated from bone nonunion patients with poor proliferation and osteogenic ability are compared with that from normal bone-healing patients. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of RNAs that are more than 200 nucleotides in length, lack an open-reading frame encoding a protein, and have little or no protein-coding function, and could regulate gene expression, which is involved in the regulation of important life activities, such as growth, development, aging, and death at epigenetic, transcriptional, and post-transcriptional levels. In this study, we intended to investigate the difference of lncRNA expression between patients with nonunion and normal fracture healing. Our result found that lncRNA ENST00000563492 was downregulated in bone nonunion tissues. LncRNA ENST00000563492 promotes osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs through upregulating the expression of CDH11. On the other hand, LncRNA ENST0000563492 could improve the osteogenesis–angiogenesis coupling process through enhancing the expression of VEGF during osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. LncRNA ENST00000563492 functions as a ceRNA for miR-205-5p that was targeting CDH11 and VEGF. LncRNA ENST00000563492 could promote the osteogenesis of BMSCs in vivo. Our result indicated that lncRNA ENST00000563492 may be a new target for bone nonunion.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based therapy is a promising strategy for bone repair. Furthermore, the innate immune system, and specifically macrophages, plays a crucial role in the differentiation and activation of MSCs. The anti-inflammatory cytokine Interleukin-4 (IL-4) converts pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages into a tissue regenerative M2 phenotype, which enhances MSC differentiation and function. We developed lentivirus-transduced IL-4 overexpressing MSCs (IL-4 MSCs) that continuously produce IL-4 and polarize macrophages toward an M2 phenotype. In the current study, we investigated the potential of IL-4 MSCs delivered using a macroporous gelatin-based microribbon (μRB) scaffold for healing of critical-size long bone defects in Mice. IL-4 MSCs within μRBs enhanced M2 marker expression without inhibiting M1 marker expression in the early phase, and increased macrophage migration into the scaffold. Six weeks after establishing the bone defect, IL-4 MSCs within μRBs enhanced bone formation and helped bridge the long bone defect. IL-4 MSCs delivered using macroporous μRB scaffold is potentially a valuable strategy for the treatment of critical-size long bone defects.

Early efficacy evaluation of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) combined to biomaterials to treat long bone non-unions. Injury 2020; 51 Suppl 1:S63-S73.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIM Advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMP) frequently lack of clinical data on efficacy to substantiate a future clinical use. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy to heal long bone delayed unions and non-unions, as secondary objective of the EudraCT 2011-005441-13 clinical trial, through clinical and radiological bone consolidation at 3, 6 and 12 months of follow-up, with subgroup analysis of affected bone, gender, tobacco use, and time since the original fracture. PATIENTS AND METHODS Twenty-eight patients were recruited and surgically treated with autologous bone marrow derived mesenchymal stromal cells expanded under Good Manufacturing Practices, combined to bioceramics in the surgical room before implantation. Mean age was 39 ± 13 years, 57% were males, and mean Body Mass Index 27 ± 7. Thirteen (46%) were active smokers. There were 11 femoral, 4 humeral, and 13 tibial non-unions. Initial fracture occurred at a mean ± SD of 27.9 ± 31.2 months before recruitment. Efficacy results were expressed by clinical consolidation (no or mild pain if values under 30 in VAS scale), and by radiological consolidation with a REBORNE score over 11/16 points (value of or above 0.6875). Means were statistically compared and mixed models for repeated measurements estimated the mean and confidence intervals (95%) of the REBORNE Bone Healing scale. Clinical and radiological consolidation were analyzed in the subgroups with Spearman correlation tests (adjusted by Bonferroni). RESULTS Clinical consolidation was earlier confirmed, while radiological consolidation at 3 months was 25.0% (7/28 cases), at 6 months 67.8% (19/28 cases), and at 12 months, 92.8% (26/28 cases including the drop-out extrapolation of two failures). Bone biopsies confirmed bone formation surrounding the bioceramic granules. All locations showed similar consolidation, although this was delayed in tibial non-unions. No significant gender difference was found in 12-month consolidation (95% confidence). Higher consolidation scale values were seen in non-smoking patients at 6 (p = 0.012, t-test) and 12 months (p = 0.011, t-test). Longer time elapsed after the initial fracture did not preclude the occurrence of consolidation. CONCLUSION Bone consolidation was efficaciously obtained with the studied expanded hBM-MSCs combined to biomaterials, by clinical and radiological evaluation, and confirmed by bone biopsies, with lower consolidation scores in smokers.

Abstract
The optimal treatment for complex fractures and large bone defects is an important unsolved issue in orthopedics and related specialties. Approximately 5-10% of fractures fail to heal and develop non-unions. Bone healing can be characterized by three partially overlapping phases: the inflammatory phase, the repair phase, and the remodeling phase. Eventual healing is highly dependent on the initial inflammatory phase, which is affected by both the local and systemic responses to the injurious stimulus. Furthermore, immune cells and mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) participate in critical inter-cellular communication or crosstalk to modulate bone healing. Deficiencies in this inter-cellular exchange, inhibition of the natural processes of acute inflammation, and its resolution, or chronic inflammation due to a persistent adverse stimulus can lead to impaired fracture healing. Thus, an initial and optimal transient stage of acute inflammation is one of the key factors for successful, robust bone healing. Recent studies demonstrated the therapeutic potential of immunomodulation for bone healing by the preconditioning of MSCs to empower their immunosuppressive properties. Preconditioned MSCs (also known as "primed/ licensed/ activated" MSCs) are cultured first with pro-inflammatory cytokines (e.g., TNFα and IL17A) or exposed to hypoxic conditions to mimic the inflammatory environment prior to their intended application. Another approach of immunomodulation for bone healing is the resolution of inflammation with anti-inflammatory cytokines such as IL4, IL10, and IL13. In this review, we summarize the principles of inflammation and bone healing and provide an update on cellular interactions and immunomodulation for optimal bone healing.

Abstract
Bone marrow-Multipotential stromal cells (BM-MSCs) are increasingly used to treat complicated fracture healing e.g., non-union. Though, the quality of these autologous cells is not well characterized. We aimed to evaluate bone healing-related capacities of non-union BM-MSCs. Iliac crest-BM was aspirated from long-bone fracture patients with normal healing (U) or non-united (NU). Uncultured (native) CD271highCD45low cells or passage-zero cultured BM-MSCs were analyzed for gene expression levels, and functional assays were conducted using culture-expanded BM-MSCs. Blood samples were analyzed for serum cytokine levels. Uncultured NU-CD271highCD45low cells significantly expressed fewer transcripts of growth factor receptors, EGFR, FGFR1, and FGRF2 than U cells. Significant fewer transcripts of alkaline phosphatase (ALPL), osteocalcin (BGLAP), osteonectin (SPARC) and osteopontin (SPP1) were detected in NU-CD271highCD45low cells. Additionally, immunoregulation-related markers were differentially expressed between NU- and U-CD271highCD45low cells. Interestingly, passage-zero NU BM-MSCs showed low expression of immunosuppressive mediators. However, culture-expanded NU and U BM-MSCs exhibited comparable proliferation, osteogenesis, and immunosuppression. Serum cytokine levels were found similar for NU and U groups. Collectively, native NU-BM-MSCs seemed to have low proliferative and osteogenic capacities; therefore, enhancing their quality should be considered for regenerative therapies. Further research on distorted immunoregulatory molecules expression in BM-MSCs could potentially benefit the prediction of complicated fracture healing.

Abstract
Background To examine the outcomes of multidirectional percutaneous drilling and autologous concentrated bone marrow (BM) transplantation for atrophic femoral diaphyseal nonunion characterized by intact hardware and mechanical stability at the nonunion site. Methods Fourteen patients (22–63 years of age) were admitted to our hospital with atrophic femoral diaphyseal nonunion. All patients were treated with a combination of multidirectional percutaneous drilling and autologous concentrated BM transplantation. Radiographic evaluation was conducted every month after transplantation until bone healing was achieved. Results Bony union was achieved in 13 of the 14 patients (92.9%) after an average of 3.9 months (range: 2.5–6 months). The average radiographic union scale in tibial (RUST) scale score improved significantly from the preoperative period (6.15±1.21) to follow-up (11.23±0.73; P<0.05). The mean follow-up after transplantation was 31.4±9.5 months (range: 18–50 months). At the final follow-up, the quality of function had improved significantly, allowing a return to normal activities. Conclusion Combined multidirectional percutaneous drilling and autologous concentrated BM transplantation is an easy, safe, inexpensive, and efficacious method to treat atrophic femoral diaphyseal nonunion characterized by intact hardware and mechanical stability at the nonunion site.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are capable of differentiating into multilineage cells, thus making them a significant prospect as a cell source for regenerative therapy; however, the differentiation capacity of MSCs into osteoblasts seems to not be the main mechanism responsible for the benefits associated with human mesenchymal stem cells hMSCs when used in cell therapy approaches. The process of bone fracture restoration starts with an instant inflammatory reaction, as the innate immune system responds with cytokines that enhance and activate many cell types, including MSCs, at the site of the injury. In this review, we address the influence of MSCs on the immune system in fracture repair and osteogenesis. This paradigm offers a means of distinguishing target bone diseases to be treated with MSC therapy to enhance bone repair by targeting the crosstalk between MSCs and the immune system.

J Periodontol 2019; 91:683-692.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Occlusal trauma is an important factor promoting bone loss caused by periodontal diseases. Although there are reports of traumatic force promoting bone resorption in periodontal diseases, no studies examining the inhibition of bone formation by traumatic force and the underlying mechanism have been reported. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism whereby traumatic force inhibits bone formation. METHODS MC3T3-E1 cells were induced to undergo osteogenic differentiation and subjected to cyclic uniaxial compressive stress with or without stimulation with Pg. LPS. The expression of osteoblast markers and the activation of IKK-NF-κB signaling were evaluated in vitro. Then, MC3T3-E1 cells were induced to undergo osteogenic differentiation and subjected to cyclic uniaxial compressive stress with or without IKK-2 Inhibitor VI. The expression of osteoblast markers was determined. Then, the classic Wnt signaling pathway (β-catenin, Gsk3β, p-Gsk3β, and Dkk1) was further evaluated in vitro. Finally, occlusal trauma was induced in Wistar rats with or without the injection of IKK-2 Inhibitor VI, to evaluate changes in bone mass and IKK-NF-κB and Wnt/β-catenin signaling in vivo. RESULTS After stimulation with Pg. LPS and traumatic force, IKK-NF-κB signaling was significantly activated in vitro. The expression of osteoblast markers and the activity of alkaline phosphatase in MC3T3-E1 cells declined after traumatic force loading and were rescued when IKK-NF-κB signaling was blocked. Wnt/β-catenin signaling was accordingly inhibited upon force loading, but this inhibition was reversed when IKK-NF-κB was antagonized in vitro. X-ray and Micro-CT analysis of the mandibles of the rats as well as HE and TRAP staining showed that bone loss induced by occlusal trauma declined after IKK-NF-κB was inhibited. The expression of p65 and IκBα was increased when occlusal trauma was induced in Wistar rats, whereas β-catenin, OCN, and Runx2 levels were decreased. After blocking IKK-NF-κB, significant upregulation of β-catenin, OCN, and Runx2 was observed in rats suffering from occlusal trauma. CONCLUSIONS IKK-NF-κB signaling could be activated by traumatic force or occlusal trauma. Its activation promoted the degradation of β-catenin, ultimately inhibiting osteogenic differentiation in vitro and bone formation in vivo.

Abstract
Delayed union and nonunion are a significant concern in long bone fractures and spinal fusions. Treatment of nonunion often entails multiple revision surgeries that further increase the financial, physical, and emotional burden on patients. The optimal treatment strategy for nonunions remains unclear in many cases, and the risk of complications after revision procedures remains high. This is in part due to our limited understanding of the biological mechanisms that inhibit proper bone healing and lead to nonunion. And yet, few preclinical models directly investigate how healing is impacted after establishment of nonunion, with most instead primarily focusing on treatment immediately after a fresh bone injury. Here, we utilized a critical size femoral defect model in rats where treatment was delayed 8 weeks post-injury, at which time nonunion was established. In this study, acute and delayed treatments with bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) were assessed. We found that delayed treatment resulted in decreased bone formation and reduced mechanical strength compared to acute treatment, even when BMP-2 dose was increased by 2.5 times the acute treatment dose. Interestingly, serum cytokine analysis at 12 weeks post-treatment revealed signs of chronic immune dysregulation after delayed treatment. In particular, non-responders (rats that did not exhibit defect bridging) demonstrated higher overall expression of inflammatory cytokines, including TNFα and IL-1β, compared to responders. These findings suggest that re-establishing long-term immune homeostasis may be critical for successful bone healing, particularly after nonunion. © 2018 Orthopaedic Research Society.

Abstract
Introduction: Nonunion is a challenging condition in orthopaedics as its etiology is not fully understood. Clinical interventions currently aim to stimulate both the biological and mechanical aspects of the bone healing process by using bone autografts and surgical fixation. However, recent observations showed that atrophic nonunion tissues contain putative osteoprogenitors, raising the hypothesis that its reactivation could be explored to achieve bone repair. Methods: Here we characterized atrophic nonunion stromal cells (NUSC) in vitro, using bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) and osteoblasts as controls cells of the osteoblastic lineage, and evaluated its ability to form bone in vivo. Results: NUSC had proliferative and senescence rates comparable to BMSC and osteoblasts, and homogeneously expressed the osteolineage markers CD90 and CD73. Regarding CD105 and CD146 expression, NUSC were closely related to osteoblasts, both with an inferior percentage of CD105+/CD146+ cells as compared to BMSC. Despite this, NUSC differentiated along the osteogenic and adipogenic lineages in vitro; and when transplanted subcutaneously into immunocompromised mice, new bone formation and hematopoietic marrow were established. Conclusions: This study demonstrates that NUSC are osteogenically competent, supporting the hypothesis that their endogenous reactivation could be a strategy to stimulate the bone formation while reducing the amount of bone autograft requirements.

Abstract
The intention of the current article is to review the epidemiology with related socioeconomic costs, pathophysiology, and treatment options for diaphyseal long bone delayed unions and nonunions. Diaphyseal nonunions in the tibia and in the femur are estimated to occur 4.6-8% after modern intramedullary nailing of closed fractures with an even much higher risk in open fractures. There is a high socioeconomic burden for long bone nonunions mainly driven by indirect costs, such as productivity losses due to long treatment duration. The classic classification of Weber and Cech of the 1970s is based on the underlying biological aspect of the nonunion differentiating between "vital" (hypertrophic) and "avital" (hypo-/atrophic) nonunions, and can still be considered to represent the basis for basic evaluation of nonunions. The "diamond concept" units biomechanical and biological aspects and provides the pre-requisites for successful bone healing in nonunions. For humeral diaphyseal shaft nonunions, excellent results for augmentation plating were reported. In atrophic humeral shaft nonunions, compression plating with stimulation of bone healing by bone grafting or BMPs seem to be the best option. For femoral and tibial diaphyseal shaft fractures, dynamization of the nail is an atraumatic, effective, and cheap surgical possibility to achieve bony consolidation, particularly in delayed nonunions before 24 weeks after initial surgery. In established hypertrophic nonunions in the tibia and femur, biomechanical stability should be addressed by augmentation plating or exchange nailing. Hypotrophic or atrophic nonunions require additional biological stimulation of bone healing for augmentation plating.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Pre-operative assessment of the deformity in scaphoid non-unions influences surgical decision-making. To characterize deformity, we used three-dimensional computed tomographic modelling in 28 scaphoid non-unions, and quantified bone loss, dorsal osteophyte volume and flexion deformity. We further related these three-dimensional parameters to the intrascaphoid and capitate-lunate angles, and stage of scaphoid non-union advanced collapse assessed on conventional two-dimensional images and to the chosen surgical procedure. Three-dimensional flexion deformity (mean 26°) did not correlate with intrascaphoid and capitate-lunate angles. Osteophyte volume was positively correlated with bone loss and stage of scaphoid non-union advanced collapse. Osteophyte volume and bone loss increased over time. Three-dimensional modelling enables the quantification of bone loss and osteophyte volume, which may be valuable parameters in the characterization of deformity and subsequent decision-making about treatment, when taken in addition to the clinical aspects and level of osteoarthritis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Nonunion is a challenging problem that may occur after certain bone fractures. The treatment of nonunion is closely related to its type. To develop an effective treatment strategy for each type of nonunion, biological analysis of nonunion tissue is essential. Pseudoarthrosis is a distinct pathologic entity of nonunion. To understand the pathology of pseudoarthrosis, we investigated the cellular properties of pseudoarthrosis tissue-derived cells (PCs) in vitro. PATIENTS AND METHODS PCs were isolated from four patients with pseudoarthrosis and cultured. Cells were evaluated for cell-surface protein expression by using flow cytometry. Osteogenic differentiation capacity was assessed by using Alizarin Red S staining, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assay, and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) after osteogenic induction. Chondrogenic differentiation capacity was assessed via Safranin O staining and RT-PCR after chondrogenic induction. RESULTS PCs were consistently positive for the mesenchymal stem cell-related markers CD29, CD44, CD105, and CD166, but were negative for the haematopoietic-lineage markers CD31, CD34, CD45, and CD133. Alizarin Red S staining revealed that PCs formed a mineralised matrix that was rich in calcium deposits after osteogenic induction. ALP activity under osteogenic conditions was significantly higher than that under control conditions. Gene expression of ALP, Runx2, osterix, osteocalcin, and bone sialoprotein was observed in PCs cultured under osteogenic conditions. Induced pellets were negatively stained by Safranin O staining. Gene expression of aggrecan, collagen II, collagen X, SOX5, and SOX9 was not observed. CONCLUSION We have shown for the first time the properties of cells in patients with pseudoarthrosis. Our results indicated that osteogenic cells existed in the pseudoarthrosis tissue. This study might provide insights into understanding the pathology of pseudoarthrosis and improving the treatment for pseudoarthrosis.

Abstract
The reconstitution of lost bone is a subject that is germane to many orthopedic conditions including fractures and non-unions, infection, inflammatory arthritis, osteoporosis, osteonecrosis, metabolic bone disease, tumors, and periprosthetic particle-associated osteolysis. In this regard, the processes of acute and chronic inflammation play an integral role. Acute inflammation is initiated by endogenous or exogenous adverse stimuli, and can become chronic in nature if not resolved by normal homeostatic mechanisms. Dysregulated inflammation leads to increased bone resorption and suppressed bone formation. Crosstalk among inflammatory cells (polymorphonuclear leukocytes and cells of the monocyte-macrophage-osteoclast lineage) and cells related to bone healing (cells of the mesenchymal stem cell-osteoblast lineage and vascular lineage) is essential to the formation, repair and remodeling of bone. In this review, the authors provide a comprehensive summary of the literature related to inflammation and bone repair. Special emphasis is placed on the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms, and potential interventions that can favorably modulate the outcome of clinical conditions that involve bone repair.

Abstract
We report a radiological sign which predicts progression to hypertrophic non-union for fractures of the tibial diaphysis. Radiographs of 46 tibial fractures were reviewed independently by four orthopaedic trauma surgeons and two musculoskeletal radiologists. Patients were identified from a database of tibial fractures managed with Ilizarov frame fixation. There were 23 fractures that progressed to non-union requiring further surgery. The controls were 23 fractures that had united without need for further surgery at 1-year follow-up. Radiographs selected were the first images taken following frame removal. All radiographs were anonymised and randomized prior to review. Presence of the callus fracture sign was identified in 16 radiographs of the fractures that progressed to non-union, and 7 of the united fracture group. Sensitivity is 69.6 %. Specificity is 91.4 %. Positive and negative predictive values are 88.9 and 75.0 %, respectively. These results compare favourably with computerised tomography for predicting non-union. Intra- and inter-observer reliability was good (κ = 0.68), and moderate (κ = 0.57), respectively. The callus fracture sign is a useful radiological predictor of progression to non-union and may represent insufficient mechanical stability at the fracture site.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND AIM Distraction osteogenesis is employed in the management of hypertrophic nonunion associated with angular deformity and shortening. This study was aimed at evaluating the outcomes of Ilizarov apparatus without bone graft or open osteotomy in cases of hypertrophic nonunion not responding to treatment with internal fixation. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the data of 12 patients (mean age, 46.5 years) treated for hypertrophic nonunion at our institution. All patients had two-plane angular deformities (mean, 19° and 23.5° in sagittal and frontal plane, respectively) and limb-length discrepancy (mean, 3.8cm). The Ilizarov apparatus was used to simultaneously treat the nonunion, malalignment, and limb-length discrepancy. RESULTS The mean follow-up duration after the removal of the apparatus was 42 months. In all cases, bone union had been achieved within an average of 8 months after a single surgery, without the need for any additional procedure. Additionally, none of the patients had recurrence of limb-length discrepancy or malalignment during the follow-up period. Complications of superficial pin-tract infections and mild Achilles tendon contracture were observed, but they resolved over time. All patients were satisfied with the outcome of the surgery. CONCLUSION Patients with hypertrophic nonunion associated with internal fixation failure can be treated by using the Ilizarov apparatus, thereby eliminating the need for bone graft or open osteotomy. Distraction osteogenesis appears to be effective as a minimally invasive percutaneous procedure in the treatment of hypertrophic nonunion with deformity and shortening.

Abstract
This review presents a summary of basic science evidence examining the influence of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) on secondary fracture healing. Multiple studies suggest that TNF-α, in combination with the host reservoir of peri-fracture mesenchymal stem cells, is a main determinant in the success of bone healing. Disease states associated with poor bone healing commonly have inappropriate TNF-α responses, which likely contributes to the higher incidence of delayed and nonunions in these patient populations. Appreciation of TNF-α in fracture healing may lead to new therapies to augment recovery and reduce the incidence of complications.

Abstract
Delayed bone healing and non-union occur in approximately 10% of long bone fractures. Despite intense investigations and progress in understanding the processes governing bone healing, the specific pathophysiological characteristics of the local microenvironment leading to non-union remain obscure. The clinical findings and radiographic features remain the two important landmarks of diagnosing non-unions and even when the diagnosis is established there is debate on the ideal timing and mode of intervention. In an attempt to understand better the pathophysiological processes involved in the development of fracture non-union, a number of studies have endeavoured to investigate the biological profile of tissue obtained from the non-union site and analyse any differences or similarities of tissue obtained from different types of non-unions. In the herein study, we present the existing evidence of the biological and molecular profile of fracture non-union tissue.

Abstract
Traumatic temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis can be classified into fibrous, fibro-osseous and bony ankylosis. It is still a huge challenge for oral and maxillofacial surgeons due to the technical difficulty and high incidence of recurrence. The poor outcome of disease may be partially attributed to the limited understanding of its pathogenesis. The purpose of this article was to comprehensively review the literature and summarise results from both human and animal studies related to the genesis of TMJ ankylosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (US) has been shown to have positive effects on the healing of nonunions, and bone morphogenetic protein 7 (BMP-7) is known to be a strong stimulator of osteogenic differentiation. Recently, we showed that nonunion tissue contains multilineage mesenchymal progenitor cells, suggesting that nonunion tissue-derived cells may play an important role during the healing process of nonunions. In this study, we investigated whether low-intensity pulsed US promoted BMP-7-induced osteogenic differentiation of nonunion tissue-derived cells in vitro. METHODS Nonunion tissue-derived cells were isolated from 7 patients. The cells were divided into two groups: (1) BMP-7 alone, consisting of nonunion tissue-derived cells cultured in osteogenic medium containing BMP-7 without low-intensity pulsed US treatment; and (2) BMP-7 + low-intensity pulsed US, consisting of nonunion tissue-derived cells cultured in osteogenic medium containing BMP-7 with low-intensity pulsed US treatment. The osteogenic differentiation potential and proliferation of nonunion tissue-derived cells were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The alkaline phosphatase activity, gene expression levels of alkaline phosphatase and runt-related transcription factor 2, and mineralization were higher in the BMP-7 + low-intensity pulsed US group than in the BMP-7-alone group. There was no significant difference in cell proliferation between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS These findings show a significant effect of low-intensity pulsed US on the osteogenic differentiation of nonunion tissue-derived cells induced by BMP-7. This study may provide substantial evidence for the clinical combined application of BMP-7 and low-intensity pulsed US for nonunion treatment.

Abstract
We previously hypothesized that the development of traumatic temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis was similar to that of hypertrophic non-union. Besides similarities in etiology, hypertrophic bone stumps, and long-term development, the radiolucent zone, frequently located in the ankylosed bone, is another common feature. In this study, we demonstrated that the radiolucent zone also contained multilineage potential cells (RZs, radiolucent-zone-related cells) as the non-union tissues. RZs were characterized and compared with mandibular bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) by analysis of MSC-related markers, colony-forming-unit assays, multipotential differentiation assays, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assays, and cell transplantation in vivo. Both cell types were positive for CD105, CD166, and Stro-1 expression, negative for CD34 and CD45 expression, and exhibited osteogenic, adipogenic, and chondrogenic differentiation potentials. However, compared with mandibular BMSCs, RZs showed lower colony-forming-unit abilities and proliferation rates. The mineralization and bone-forming ability of RZs was weaker than that of mandibular BMSCs, with Runx2 and ALP mRNA expression and ALP activity significantly lower in RZs. All these results suggest that RZs possess the properties of MSCs but lower proliferation and osteogenic differentiation capacity similar to that of stromal cells in hypertrophic non-union tissues.

Abstract
This article describes a technique for preparing the bed for autologous bone grafting in nonunion surgery. The procedure is divided into 2 steps. First, both ends of the fracture fragments are chipped into small pieces using an osteotome and hammer without peeling off the periosteum, creating pathways into the bone marrow. Second, cancellous bone harvested from the iliac crest is grafted into the aperture created by the previous bone chipping treatment. The technique is easy to perform and is a promising approach for enhancing bone healing in nonunion and delayed union.

Abstract
Nonunion and large bone defects present a therapeutic challenge to the surgeon and are often associated with significant morbidity. These defects are expensive to both the health care system and society. However, several surgical procedures have been developed to maximise patient satisfaction and minimise health-care-associated and socioeconomic costs. Integrating recent evidence into the diamond concept leads to one simple conclusion that not only provides us with answers to the "open questions" but also simplifies our entire understanding of bone healing. It has been shown that a combination of neo-osteogenesis and neovascularisation will restore tissue deficits, and that the optimal approach includes a biomaterial scaffold, cell biology techniques, a growth factor and optimisation of the mechanical environment. Further prospective, controlled, randomised clinical studies will determine the effectiveness and economic benefits of treatment with mesenchymal stem cells, not in comparison to other conventional surgical approaches but in direct conjunction with them.

Abstract
Not all fractures heal well or rapidly in the adult skeleton, and basic scientists and clinicians continue to search for ways to make fractures heal more predictably. It is a fundamental tenet of orthopaedics that skeletal injury is followed by inflammation and that this inflammatory response is the first stage in a sequence of events that culminate in skeletal repair. Modulating this response can affect the inflammatory stage and in turn subsequent stages that are required for healing. Literally dozens of studies in animals dating back to the 1970s have investigated the effects of commonly used anti-inflammatory medications on prostaglandin synthesis and fracture repair with strikingly uniform results. More recently, investigators have begun examining other means of modulating the early inflammatory stages after fracture in an effort to enhance fracture healing. This article reviews recent investigations into the potential role of leukotrienes as negative regulators of fracture healing and potential pharmacologic use of medications that block this effect.
