Abstract
Bone transport is a surgery-driven procedure for the treatment of large bone defects. However, challenging complications include prolonged consolidation, docking site nonunion and pin tract infection. Here, we develop an osteoinductive and biodegradable intramedullary implant by a hybrid tissue engineering construct technique to enable sustained delivery of bone morphogenetic protein-2 as an adjunctive therapy. In a male rat bone transport model, the eluting bone morphogenetic protein-2 from the implants accelerates bone formation and remodeling, leading to early bony fusion as shown by imaging, mechanical testing, histological analysis, and microarray assays. Moreover, no pin tract infection but tight osseointegration are observed. In contrast, conventional treatments show higher proportion of docking site nonunion and pin tract infection. The findings of this study demonstrate that the novel intramedullary implant holds great promise for advancing bone transport techniques by promoting bone regeneration and reducing complications in the treatment of bone defects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteogenesis of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) is an important research topic in the application of bone tissue engineering. Bone morphogenetic protein-1 (BMP-1) is important in bone formation and stability, but its effects on the osteogenesis of BMSCs are unclear. This study aimed to investigate the association of BMP-1 with the osteogenic capacity of BMSCs. MATERIAL AND METHODS Primary rabbit BMSCs were cultured and divided into a BMP-1-overexpressing group, a Green Fluorescent Protein-expressing (GFP) group, and a Control group. The transfection efficiency of BMP-1 was tested by Western blotting. Cell viabilities, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activities, Ca2+ concentrations, and gross examinations of BMSC sheets were examined at different times. The osteogenic marker collagen I was assessed by immunohistochemical analysis. RESULTS The cell viability, ALP activity, and Ca2+ content of the BMP1-overexpressed group were significantly enhanced compared with the GFP group and Control group. Immunohistochemistry staining results showed that BMP-1 promoted the expression of type I collagen in BMSCs sheets. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that the overexpression of BMP-1 can promote the osteogenesis of BMSCs and provides an improved method of cell-based tissue engineering.

Effect of Single Injection of Recombinant Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2-Loaded Artificial Collagen-Like Peptide in a Mouse Segmental Bone Transport Model. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2020; 2019:1014594. [PMID: 31950029 PMCID: PMC6948306 DOI: 10.1155/2019/1014594] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2019] [Accepted: 12/09/2019] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
This study aimed to investigate whether a single injection of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2-loaded artificial collagen-like peptide gel (rhBMP-2/ACG) accelerates consolidation at the bone defect site and bone union at the docking site in a mouse segmental bone transport (SBT) model. A critical sized bone defect (2 mm) was created in the femur of mice and subsequently reconstructed using SBT with an external fixator. Mice were divided into four treatment groups: Group CONT (immobile control), Group 0.2 (bone segments moved 0.2 mm/day for 10 days), Group 1.0 (bone segments moved 1.0 mm/day for 2 days), and Group 1.0/BMP-2 (rhBMP-2/ACG injected into the bone defect and segments moved 1.0 mm/day for 2 days). Consolidation at the bone defect site and bone union at the docking site was evaluated radiologically and histologically across eight weeks. Bone volume and bone mineral content were significantly higher in Group 0.2 than in Group 1.0. Group 0.2 showed evidence of rebuilding of the medullary canal eight weeks after surgery at the bone defect site. However, in Group 1.0, maturation of regenerative bone at the bone defect site was poor, with the central area between the proximal and distal bone composed mainly of masses of fibrous and adipose tissue. Group 1.0/BMP-2 had higher bone volume and bone mineral content compared to Group 1.0, and all mice achieved bone union at the bone defect and docking sites. Single injection of rhBMP-2/ACG combined with SBT may be effective for enhancing bone healing in large bone defects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the administration of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) on trans-sutural distraction osteogenesis (TSDO) of the transverse palatal suture in growing dogs. STUDY DESIGN A total of 36 growing dogs were used in this study. The experimental animals were treated with different elastic force and rhBMP-2. The bone regeneration was determined with X-ray, histology, and clinical evaluation. The computed values underwent statistical analyses using analysis of variance. RESULTS The maxillary complex was most noticeably advanced with an applied elastic force of 600 g (22.4 ± 5.0 mm) and 800 g + rhBMP-2 (24 ± 5.1 mm). Immunohistochemical staining showed that the expression of bone morphogenetic protein-2 and bone morphogenetic protein-4 varied with different elastic force. These changes were statistically significant when 600 g and 800 g + rhBMP-2 were applied within 2 weeks of distraction when compared with controls (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS The results of this study suggest that TSDO in the growing dog should be safe and well tolerated when inducing bony lengthening of the maxilla. rhBMP-2 plays an important role in bone regeneration using TSDO.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone transport osteogenesis (BTO), distraction of a free portion of bone across a defect, offers an autologous solution to large cranial defects that may allow treatment without permanent hardware implantation. This study establishes a sheep model to evaluate the feasibility and distraction kinetics of BTO. METHODS Subtotal cranial defects (3.5 × 3.5 cm) were created in 10 young adult sheep and a transport segment (3.5 × 2 cm) traversed the defect at varying distraction rates (0, 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 mm/day) using semi-buried cranial distractors. After a 6-week consolidation period, sheep were euthanized and the resultant bone was analyzed by CT, histology, and mechanical testing. RESULTS Gross examination, histology, and 3D CT revealed that control animals had fibrous nonunion whereas distraction animals had ossified defects with fibrous nonunion at the distal docking site. There was one premature consolidation in the 0.5 mm/day group. The volume of bony regenerate in the 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 mm/day distraction rate groups was statistically indistinct (P = 0.16). The mean flexural moduli (MPa) of non-decalcified samples from the control cranium, transport segment, and bone regenerate were found to be 4.50 ± 4.9, 6.17 ± 2.1, and 4.14 ± 4.8, respectively (P = 0.24). CONCLUSIONS This experiment provides proof of concept for BTO for large calvarial defects in a sheep model. Distraction at a rate of 0.5 mm per day may place individuals at higher risk for premature consolidation, but distraction rates did not have significant effects on regenerate quantity or quality. Future work will include the use of curvilinear distraction devices for 3-dimensional contour.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transport distraction osteogenesis (TDO) has been used in attempts to treat large calvarial defects but has, until now, lacked consistency and reliability. To achieve sufficient bone formation, the effect of TDO was compared to the effect of TDO combined with recombinant human bone morphogenic protein-2 (rhBMP-2). METHODS Fourteen dogs were divided into 2 groups; 6 animals in the control group received TDO only, and 8 received TDO combined with rhBMP-2. A calvarial defect 33 × 35 mm in size was generated, and the drug-delivering internal distractor was applied. After a 5-day latency period, distraction with rhBMP-2 at 10 μg/day was initiated at a rate of 2 mm/day. This was followed by a consolidation period of 3 months, after which areas of osteogenesis and strength were measured and histologic examinations were conducted. RESULTS The average area of osteogenesis was higher in the experimental group (P < 0.01). Regenerated bone of the experimental group showed increased strength (P < 0.05). Histological examination showed typical mature bone in the experimental group. Prominent osteoblastic rimming was observed in the bone marrow of the experimental group. CONCLUSIONS TDO with an internal distraction device delivering rhBMP-2 can enhance bone regeneration of large calvarial defects in a dog model. These results suggest the potential for human clinical testing of TDO combined with rhBMP-2.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During lower limb lengthening, poor bone regeneration is a devastating complication. Several local or systemic applications have been used to promote osteogenesis, and biologic stimulations are gaining attention, but their utility has not been proven in this setting. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES In patients undergoing bilateral tibial lengthening, we compared those receiving an osteotomy site injection of autologous bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) plus platelet-rich plasma (PRP) with those not receiving such an injection in terms of external fixator index (time in external fixation divided by amount of lengthening), full weightbearing index (time until a patient was permitted to do full weightbearing divided by amount of lengthening), four cortical healing indexes (time until each cortical union divided by amount of lengthening), and callus shape and type. METHODS Twenty-two patients (44 tibias) undergoing bilateral tibial lengthening enrolled in this randomized trial. Two patients were excluded, one due to insufficient radiographic evaluation and one who was lost to followup, leaving 20 patients (40 segments) for inclusion. Ten patients (20 segments) received BMAC combined with PRP injection (treatment group) and 10 patients (20 segments) received no injection (control group). All patients underwent stature lengthening for familial short stature with the lengthening over nail technique. Autologous BMAC combined with PRP was injected at the tibial osteotomy site at the end of the index surgery. Mean distraction rates were similar between groups (0.75 mm/day in the treatment group versus 0.72 mm/day in the control group; p = 0.24). Full weightbearing was permitted when we observed radiographic evidence of healing at two cortices; this assessment was made by the surgeon who was blinded to the treatment each patient received. Minimum followup was 24 months (mean, 28 months; range, 24-34 months). RESULTS There was no difference in mean external fixator index between groups. However, mean cortical healing indexes (anterior/posterior/medial/lateral) were 1.14/0.81/0.96/0.88 months/cm in the treatment group and 1.47/1.26/1.42/1.22 months/cm in the control group (all p < 0.001), showing faster healing in the treatment group at each cortex. Full weightbearing was permitted earlier in the treatment group than in the control group (index: 0.99 months/cm and 1.38 months/cm, respectively, p < 0.001). Callus shape and type were not different between groups. CONCLUSIONS Autologous BMAC combined with PRP injection at the osteotomy site helped improve bone healing in distraction osteogenesis of the tibia, although the effect size was small. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level I, therapeutic study. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the bone regeneration properties of beta-tricalcium phosphate hydrothermally converted from foraminifera carbonate exoskeleton in the repair of rat calvarial defect. These natural materials possess unique interconnected porous network with uniform pore size distribution, which can be potentially advantageous. In total, 20 adult male Wistar rats received full-thickness calvarial defect with a diameter of 5 mm. The rate of newly formed bone was measured radiologically by X-ray and micro-computed tomography and by histologic examination. After 2 weeks, the beta-tricalcium phosphate group exhibited full closure of the defect site, while control group remained unrestored at the end of the 6-week experimentation. It was observed that the newly regenerated bone thickened over the course of the experiment in the beta-tricalcium phosphate group. No soft tissue reaction was observed around the beta-tricalcium phosphate implant and the rats remained healthy. These results showed that repair of the calvarial defect can be achieved by biomimetic beta-tricalcium phosphate macrospheres, which hold potential for application as bone grafts for bone augmentation surgeries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Continuous traction is capable of creating an optimal biological environment for bone healing which may finally compensate for the rapid distraction rate in distraction osteogenesis. This study was designed to investigate the response of distraction callus to continuous distraction at a rapid rate using a rabbit model of mandibular lengthening. METHODS Thirty adult New Zealand white rabbits were randomly assigned to the intermittent (1 step/d) or continuous distraction (8 steps/s) group, with 15 in each. After osteotomy, manual-driven or autodriven distractor was adapted accordingly. The distraction was activated at a rate of 3.0 mm/d for 4 days. Five rabbits in each group were killed at week 2, week 4, and week 12 of consolidation, respectively. Plain radiography, microcomputed tomography, and histology examinations were used to evaluate the bone regeneration status. RESULTS Plain radiographs and histologic studies demonstrated more advanced bone healing in continuous distraction group than that in intermittent distraction group at all the examined time points. Quantitative microcomputed tomography analysis showed significantly higher bone volume in continuous distraction group at week 2 (p < 0.01) and week 4 (p < 0.05) of consolidation. CONCLUSIONS Continuous traction by autodriven distractor could be a promising clinical alternative to shorten the treatment course of distraction osteogenesis. Further studies to test its clinical potential using large animals that have similar metabolic rate and muscular resistance with human being are necessary.
