One Stage Masquelets Technique: Evaluation of Different Forms of Membrane Filling with and without Bone Marrow Mononuclear Cells (BMC) in Large Femoral Bone Defects in Rats. Cells 2023; 12:cells12091289. [PMID: 37174689 PMCID: PMC10177115 DOI: 10.3390/cells12091289] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2023] [Revised: 04/23/2023] [Accepted: 04/28/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
The classic two-stage masquelet technique is an effective procedure for the treatment of large bone defects. Our group recently showed that one surgery could be saved by using a decellularized dermis membrane (DCD, Epiflex, DIZG). In addition, studies with bone substitute materials for defect filling show that it also appears possible to dispense with the removal of syngeneic cancellous bone (SCB), which is fraught with complications. The focus of this work was to clarify whether the SCB can be replaced by the granular demineralized bone matrix (g-DBM) or fibrous demineralized bone matrix (f-DBM) demineralized bone matrix and whether the colonization of the DCD and/or the DBM defect filling with bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMC) can lead to improved bone healing. In 100 Sprague Dawley rats, a critical femoral bone defect 5 mm in length was stabilized with a plate and then encased in DCD. Subsequently, the defect was filled with SCB (control), g-DBM, or f-DBM, with or without BMC. After 8 weeks, the femurs were harvested and subjected to histological, radiological, and biomechanical analysis. The analyses showed the incipient bony bridging of the defect zone in both groups for g-DBM and f-DBM. Stability and bone formation were not affected compared to the control group. The addition of BMCs showed no further improvement in bone healing. In conclusion, DBM offers a new perspective on defect filling; however, the addition of BMC did not lead to better results.

Anti-Inflammatory Activity of a Demineralized Bone Matrix: An In Vitro Pilot Study. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2022.

Abstract
Demineralized bone matrix (DBM) is commonly used for the reconstruction of bone defects. Early graft consolidation involves a transient inflammatory process. It is, however, unclear whether DBM can modulate this process. To test this possibility, we prepared acid lysates of demineralized ground cortical (DGC) and moldable demineralized fibers (MDF). Murine RAW 264.7 and primary bone marrow macrophages were exposed to acid lysates of DGC and MFD prior to provoking an inflammatory response with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Similarly, murine ST2 mesenchymal cells were exposed to DGC and MFD with and without interleukin 1β (IL1) and TNFα. We show here that acid lysates of DGC and MFD reduced the expression of IL1 and IL6 in RAW 264.7 macrophages, as determined by RT-PCR and, for IL6, by immunoassay. This response was confirmed with primary macrophages. Likewise, desalted acid lysates exert anti-inflammatory properties on RAW 264.7 cells and in ST2 cells, the forced expression of IL6, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and chemokine ligand 5 (CCL5) was reduced. These in vitro findings suggest that DGC and MFD lower the inflammation-induced expression of inflammatory mediators in murine cell-based bioassays.

Abstract
In aged individuals, osteopenia is a great concern for achieving solid spinal fusion. Spinal malunion could lead to various implant-related complications and reduce postoperative quality of life. This study aims to investigate the efficacy of collagen-binding bone morphogenetic protein-2 (CBD-BMP-2) on the treatment of lumbar inter-transverse defects and to explore whether platelet-rich plasma could help CBD-BMP-2 to achieve a better outcome in terms of osteogenesis in senile rats with osteopenia. In vitro experiment proved the angiogenic function of platelet-rich plasma and osteogenic effect of CBD-BMP-2. Rats were performed posterolateral lumbar inter-transverse fusion. Rats implanted with CBD-BMP-2 + platelet-rich plasma were assigned to Group A (n = 20), rats implanted with CBD-BMP-2 were assigned to Group B (n = 20), and those with platelet-rich plasma were assigned to Group C (n = 20). Four weeks after implantation, radiographic assessment, manual palpation, and histological evaluation were performed. In vivo experiments showed satisfactory therapeutic effect on lumbar inter-transverse fusion in both Groups A and B and better results of bone microarchitecture in Group A. Solid fusion rate was 77.8% in Group A, 66.7% in Group B, and 0% in Group C (P < 0.001). Our study indicated that CBD-BMP-2 could effectively facilitate the lumbar inter-transverse fusion in aged rats with osteopenia and platelet-rich plasma could help CBD-BMP-2 to enhance the bone healing of vertebral defects.

First Human Leucocyte Antigen (HLA) Response and Safety Evaluation of Fibrous Demineralized Bone Matrix in a Critical Size Femoral Defect Model of the Sprague-Dawley Rat. MATERIALS 2020; 13:ma13143120.

Abstract
Treatment of large bone defects is one of the great challenges in contemporary orthopedic and traumatic surgery. Grafts are necessary to support bone healing. A well-established allograft is demineralized bone matrix (DBM) prepared from donated human bone tissue. In this study, a fibrous demineralized bone matrix (f-DBM) with a high surface-to-volume ratio has been analyzed for toxicity and immunogenicity. f-DBM was transplanted to a 5-mm, plate-stabilized, femoral critical-size-bone-defect in Sprague-Dawley (SD)-rats. Healthy animals were used as controls. After two months histology, hematological analyses, immunogenicity as well as serum biochemistry were performed. Evaluation of free radical release and hematological and biochemical analyses showed no significant differences between the control group and recipients of f-DBM. Histologically, there was no evidence of damage to liver and kidney and good bone healing was observed in the f-DBM group. Reactivity against human HLA class I and class II antigens was detected with mostly low fluorescence values both in the serum of untreated and treated animals, reflecting rather a background reaction. Taken together, these results provide evidence for no systemic toxicity and the first proof of no basic immunogenic reaction to bone allograft and no sensitization of the recipient.

Abstract
Escherichia coli bone morphogenetic protein-2 (ErhBMP-2) had a larger yield but less osteoinductivity than Chinese hamster ovary cell bone morphogenetic protein-2 (CrhBMP-2). Since the release profile of rhBMP-2 affects its osteoinductivity, an appropriate carrier could improve the effect of ErhBMP-2. Demineralized bone matrix (DBM) was one of the most widely used bone substitutes, but few studies evaluated the osteoinductivity of ErhBMP-2 while it was carried by DBM. Therefore, we compared the osteoinductivity of ErhBMP-2 with CrhBMP-2 with DBM as the carrier of each. In vitro results showed ErhBMP-2 had slightly less osteoinductivity than CrhBMP-2. However, with DBM as the carrier, ErhBMP-2 induced significantly more bone regeneration in rat calvaria defects. Therefore, ErhBMP-2 might have comparable osteoinductivity with CrhBMP-2 while carried by DBM.

Abstract
Bone defects caused by fracture, disease or congenital defect remains a medically important problem to be solved. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) is a promising approach by providing scaffolds to guide and support the treatment of bone defects. However, the autologous bone graft has many defects such as limited sources and long surgical procedures. Therefore, xenograft bone graft is considered as one of the best substitutions and has been effectively used in clinical practice. Due to better preserved natural bone structure, suitable mechanical properties, low immunogenicity, good osteoinductivity and osteoconductivity in natural bone graft, decellularized and demineralized bone matrix (DBM) scaffolds were selected and discussed in the present review. In vivo animal models provide a complex physiological environment for understanding and evaluating material properties and provide important reference data for clinical trials. The purpose of this review is to outline the in vivo bone regeneration and remodeling capabilities of decellularized and DBM scaffolds in bone defect models to better evaluate the potential of these two types of scaffolds in BTE. Taking into account the limitations of the state-of-the-art technology, the results of the animal bone defect model also provide important information for future design of natural bone composite scaffolds.

Abstract
Mandibular defects, caused by congenital, pathological or iatrogenic insults, can significantly affect patient quality of life. The reconstruction of mandible has recently gained the interest of clinical and tissue engineering researchers. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of three-dimensional (3-D) cultured autologous grafts prepared using bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) combined with demineralized bone matrix (DBM) scaffolds for the restoration of mandibular defects. Cylindrical defects were created in the mandibular body of minipigs and filled with 3D-cultured BMSCs/DBM autografts, 2D-cultured BMSCs/DBM autografts, DBM material (without cells), or were left unfilled (blank). Using computed tomographic (CT) imaging and histological staining, we found that treatment of mandibular defects using 3-D cultured BMSCs/DBM autografts offered improvements in bone formation over both 2-D cultured autografts and cell-free DBM scaffolds. We found increased osteoid formation in 3D and 2D cultures, with more osteogenic cells present in the 3D constructs. We suggest that 3-D cultured homograft BMSCs combined with DBM scaffolds represents a new strategy for bone reconstruction, with potential future clinical applicability.

Abstract
The gold standard material for bone regeneration is still autologous bone, a mesenchymal tissue that consists mainly of extracellular matrix (ECM) (90% v/v) and little cellular content (10% v/v). However, the fact that decellularized allogenic bone grafts often present a clinical performance comparable to autologous bone grafts demonstrates the crucial role of ECM in bone regeneration. For long, the mechanism by which bone allografts function was not clear, but recent research has unveiled many unique characteristics of ECM that seem to play a key role in tissue regeneration. This is further confirmed by the fact that synthetic biomaterials with composition and properties resembling bone ECM present excellent bone regeneration properties. In this context, ECM molecules such as glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and self-assembly peptides (SAPs) can improve the performance of bone regeneration biomaterials. Moreover, decellularized ECM derived either from native tissues such as bone, cartilage, skin, and tooth germs or from cells such as osteoblasts, chondrocytes, and stem cells has shown promising results in bone regeneration applications. Understanding the role of ECM in bone regeneration is crucial for the development of the next generation of biomaterials for bone tissue engineering. In this sense, this review addresses the state-of-the-art on this subject matter.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on the early phases of osteoinduction by allogenic demineralized bone matrix (DBM) in rabbit intramuscular positions. MATERIALS AND METHODS Allogenic DBM was produced from bones of 3 healthy rabbits. In each of 6 experimental animals, 0.3 mL autologous PRP was prepared and 2 muscle pouches were created, where 250 mg DBM + PRP (experimental sites) and 250 mg DBM without PRP (control sites) were randomly implanted. Animals were euthanized 3 weeks postoperatively. RESULTS Histologic examination revealed uneventful healing in all cases, whereas remineralization of the periphery of the bone graft particles was a constant finding. In both control and experimental sites, fibroblasts and other mesenchymal cells (probably osteoprogenitor cells and preosteoblasts) were observed. The main histological difference was the recolonization of the empty lacunae of the bone graft particles by osteocytes at the control sites. The degradation of the graft at the control sites was statistically significantly quicker, although a statistically significant difference regarding the amount of the newly formed fibrous connective tissue was not observed. CONCLUSION The present study demonstrated that in this experimental model, the addition of PRP to DBM had a negative effect on the early phases of osteoinduction at 3 weeks of observation.

Abstract
Demineralized bone matrix (DBM) is an osteoconductive and osteoinductive commercial biomaterial and approved medical device used in bone defects with a long track record of clinical use in diverse forms. True to its name and as an acid-extracted organic matrix from human bone sources, DBM retains much of the proteinaceous components native to bone, with small amounts of calcium-based solids, inorganic phosphates and some trace cell debris. Many of DBM's proteinaceous components (e.g., growth factors) are known to be potent osteogenic agents. Commercially sourced as putty, paste, sheets and flexible pieces, DBM provides a degradable matrix facilitating endogenous release of these compounds to the bone wound sites where it is surgically placed to fill bone defects, inducing new bone formation and accelerating healing. Given DBM's long clinical track record and commercial accessibility in standard forms and sources, opportunities to further develop and validate DBM as a versatile bone biomaterial in orthopedic repair and regenerative medicine contexts are attractive.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tissue engineering of new bone relies on the combination and application of osteoconductive, osteoinductive, and osteogenic elements. Natural scaffolds, such as demineralized bone matrix (DBM), contain collagenous networks with growth factors such as bone morphogenetic protein-2. Stem cells from readily available sources, including discarded adipose tissue, have the propensity to differentiate into bone. The present study examines a multi-component technique consisting of a novel side population of adipose stem cells cultured on DBM for tissue engineering applications. METHODS Adipose-derived side population stem cells were cultured on DBM for up to 14 days. Cell proliferation, alkaline phosphatase activity, extracellular matrix protein production, and calcium-containing mineral deposit formation were assayed. Ectopic bone formation in a rat model was also evaluated. RESULTS Side population stem cells attached to and proliferated on DBM while generating markers of new bone formation. When these cell/substrate composites were implanted into an ectopic model, newly formed bone was 30% greater than that of DBM alone. CONCLUSIONS Novel populations of adipose-derived stem cells cultured on DBM compose a system that develops new bone matrix in vitro and in vivo. This strategy provides a novel approach using naturally occurring materials for bone repair in tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Besides autografts, allografts, and synthetic materials, demineralized bone matrix (DBM) is used for bone defect filling and treatment of non-unions. Different DBM formulations are introduced in clinic since years. However, little is known about the presents and quantities of growth factors in DBM. Aim of the present study was the quantification of eight growth factors important for bone healing in three different "off the shelf" DBM formulations, which are already in human use: DBX putty, Grafton DBM putty, and AlloMatrix putty. All three DBM formulations are produced from human donor tissue but they differ in the substitutes added. From each of the three products 10 different lots were analyzed. Protein was extracted from the samples with Guanidine HCL/EDTA method and human ELISA kits were used for growth factor quantification. Differences between the three different products were seen in total protein contend and the absolute growth factor values but also a large variability between the different lots was found. The order of the growth factors, however, is almost comparable between the materials. In the three investigated materials FGF basic and BMP-4 were not detectable in any analyzed sample. BMP-2 revealed the highest concentration extractable from the samples with approximately 3.6 microg/g tissue without a significant difference between the three DBM formulations. In DBX putty significantly more TGF-beta1 and FGFa were measurable compared to the two other DBMs. IGF-I revealed the significantly highest value in the AlloMatrix and PDGF in Grafton. No differences were accessed for VEGF. Due to the differences in the growth factor concentration between the individual samples, independently from the product formulation, further analyzes are required to optimize the clinical outcome of the used demineralized bone matrix.

Abstract
The physiological role of cumulus cell surrounding oocytes is particularly important for normal cytoplasmic maturation of oocytes. Collagen-based demineralized bone matrix (DBM) is a valuable biomaterial for the three-dimensional (3-D) cell culture. The present study was designed to determine whether in vitro maturation (IVM) of cumulus-free oocytes in mice could be improved by using the 3-D DBM co-culture system. The results indicated that the denuded oocytes cultured in 3-D DBM co-culture system with cumulus cells showed close similarity of cortical granules (CGs) distribution pattern, had more normal maturation-promoting factor (MPF) level and zona pellucida (ZP) hardening level to the in vivo matured oocytes, and the best preimplantation development after being activated by in vitro fertilization (IVF) or parthenogenetic activation. Thus, 3-D DBM collagen scaffold could serve as a tool for fundamental in vitro studies of cells or tissues under the environment that closely assembles the in vivo conditions.

Abstract
There is a large demand for new bone regeneration to restore the function during bone injuries. Bone filling materials are important in bone tissue restoration. In this study, the demineralized bone matrix (DBM) was activated with the engineering human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2). To enhance the binding of BMP-2 to the DBM scaffolds, a collagen-binding peptide was fused to the N-terminal of BMP-2. The in vitro results showed that the engineered collagen-targeted BMP-2 (rhBMP2-v) bound to DBM scaffolds specifically and the rhBMP2-v had increased alkaline phosphatase activity in C2C12 cells. In vivo, the DBM scaffolds impregnated with rhBMP2-v showed greater effect on ectopic bone formation. Our data suggested that the collagen-based BMP-2 targeting bone repair system had greater bone inducing ability than DBM loaded with regular BMP-2.

Abstract
Considerable research has been focused on the development of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) delivery system for homologous and efficient bone regeneration. The aim of the present study was to develop a collagen-based targeting bone repair system. A collagen-binding domain (CBD) was added to the N-terminal of native BMP-2 to allow it bind to collagen specifically. We showed that the collagen-binding bone morphogenetic protein-2 (named bone morphogenetic protein2-h, BMP2-h) had maintained the full biological activity as compared to rhBMP2 lacking the CBD. In vitro functional study also demonstrated that collagen matrix could maintain higher bioactivity of BMP2-h than native BMP-2. When demineralized bone matrix (DBM) impregnated with BMP2-h was implanted subcutaneously in rats, homogeneous bone formation was observed. Moreover, in a rabbit mandible defect model, surgical implantation of collagen matrix loaded with BMP2-h exhibited remarkable osteoinductive properties and excellent homogeneous bone formation. Our studies suggested that this novel collagen-based BMP-2 targeting bone repair system induced better bone formation not only in quantity but also in quality. Similar approaches may also be used for the repair of other tissue injuries.
