Gagnon D, Mouallem M, Leduc S, Rouleau DM, Chapleau J. A systematic scoping review of the latest data on orthobiologics in the surgical treatment of non-union. Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2024; 110:103896. [PMID: 38663743 DOI: 10.1016/j.otsr.2024.103896] [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: 11/29/2023] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/18/2024] [Indexed: 05/03/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Recent studies have shown a growing concern regarding the cost-effectiveness and the lack of supporting data for the biologic agents that are being increasingly used in the orthopedic field. Our aim was to conduct a systematic scoping review of recent publications (last five years) on the use of orthobiologics to treat fracture non-union and summarize the latest available data. PATIENTS AND METHODS The inclusion criteria for this review were articles published in English, from 2016 to 2022, and focusing on the use of orthobiologics for the surgical treatment of non-union. Searches were conducted in March 2023 using Pubmed/MEDLINE and Embase. Studies on spinal fusion or gene therapy were excluded. Reviews, case reports with five cases or less, conference proceedings, preliminary reports, pediatric or non-human studies were excluded as well. RESULTS The search found 1807 articles, 15 were eligible after PRISMA checklist and exclusions. The evidence was heterogenous and there was only one level II RCT. Recent data suggests that bone morphogenic protein (BMP-2) products could be effective for septic and aseptic tibial non-unions. However, the evidence was not conclusive regarding BMP-7, plasma rich platelets (PRP), stem cells or demineralized bone matrix (DBM). DISCUSSION Every non-union case is different in terms of bone defect, biology, mechanical stability, surgical technique and host factors, which contributes to the conflicting reports on the efficacy of orthobiologics in the literature. We might never see a level 1, high powered and robust study defining the efficacy, safety profile and cost-effectiveness of such products. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION With the introduction and continuous improvement in operative fracture fixation, even the most severe bone fractures can be treated with a high rate of successful healing. However, healing complications can occur and when healing fails over prolonged time, the outcome is termed a fracture non-union. Non-union is generally believed to develop due to inadequate fixation, underlying host-related factors, or infection. Despite the advancements in fracture fixation and infection management, there is still a clear need for earlier diagnosis, improved prediction of healing outcomes and innovation in the treatment of non-union. AREAS COVERED This review provides a detailed description of non-union from a clinical perspective, including the state of the art in diagnosis, treatment, and currently available biomaterials and orthobiologics.Subsequently, recent translational development from the biological, mechanical, and infection research fields are presented, including the latest in smart implants, osteoinductive materials, and in silico modeling. EXPERT OPINION The first challenge for future innovations is to refine and to identify new clinical factors for the proper definition, diagnosis, and treatment of non-union. However, integration of in vitro, in vivo, and in silico research will enable a comprehensive understanding of non-union causes and correlations, leading to the development of more effective treatments.

Treatment of non-hypertrophic pseudoarthrosis of long bones with a Tissue Engineered Product loaded with autologous bone marrow-derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells: Results from a phase IIa, prospective, randomized, parallel, pilot clinical trial comparing to iliac crest autograft. Injury 2024; 55:111596. [PMID: 38797000 DOI: 10.1016/j.injury.2024.111596] [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: 02/16/2024] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/27/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Atrophic pseudoarthrosis is a serious complication with an incidence of 5-10 % of bone fractures located in the diaphysis of long bones. Standard treatments involve aggressive surgical procedures and re-interventions requiring the use of autografts from the iliac crest as a source of bone-forming biological activity (Standard of Care, SoC). In this context, regenerative ex vivo expanded osteogenic cell-based medicines could be of interest. Particularly, Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSC) offer new prospects to promote bone tissue repair in pseudoarthrosis by providing biological activity in an osteoconductive and osteoinductive environment. METHODS We conducted a phase IIa, prospective, randomised, parallel, two-arms, open-label with blinded assessor pilot clinical trial to compare SoC vs. a tissue-engineered product (TEP), composed of autologous bone marrow (BM)-derived MSCs loaded onto allogeneic decellularised, lyophilised spongy bone cubes, in a cohort of 20 patients with non-hypertrophic pseudoarthrosis of long bones. Patients were followed up for 12 months. Radiological bone healing was evaluated by standard X-ray and computed tomography (CT) scanning. Quality of life was measured using the EUROQOL-5D questionnaire. RESULTS Ten patients were randomized to TEP and 10 to SoC with iliac crest autograft. Manufacturing of TEP was feasible and reproducibly achieved. TEP implantation in the bone defect was successful in all cases and none of the 36 adverse events (AE) reported were related to the treatment. Efficacy analyses were performed in the Full Analysis Set (FAS) population, which included 17 patients after 3 patients withdrew from the study. The degree of consolidation, estimated by measuring Hounsfield units (HU) on CT, showed no significant differences between the two treatment groups at 12 months post treatment (main efficacy variable) (p = 0.4835) or at 6 months. CONCLUSIONS Although only a small number of patients were included in our study, it is notable that no significant differences were observed between the experimental treatment and SoC, thus suggesting TEP as an alternative where autograft is not available or contraindicated.

Abstract
Background Osteoking (OK) is prescribed in traditional Chinese medicine to accelerate fracture healing. Although some studies suggest the potential efficacy of OK for fracture healing, the evidence remains inconclusive. Aim To systematically evaluate the safety of OK and its effect on fracture healing. Methods Relevant authoritative databases were searched until 25 August 2023. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of patients with fractures treated with Osteoking were included. We evaluated the risk of bias using the Cochrane tool and performed a meta-analysis using the Review Manager 5.4 software package. Results 13 studies involving 1123 participants were included. This meta-analysis showed that compared with observations in the control group, the OK group showed a shortened fracture healing time, increased fracture healing rate, reduced swelling regression time and ecchymosis regression time, and improved bone metabolism. In addition, the included studies did not report any serious side effects associated with the use of OK, and the mild side effects resolved without treatment. Conclusion OK therapy is beneficial and safe for accelerating fracture healing, reducing swelling, eliminating ecchymosis, and improving bone metabolism. However, the meta-analysis results do not support OK treatment for improving the fracture healing rate at all fracture sites and reducing pain across all fracture sites. Further original, high-quality studies are needed to validate these findings.

Abstract
Bone regeneration requires a well-orchestrated cellular and molecular response including robust vascularization and recruitment of mesenchymal and osteogenic cells. In femoral fractures, angiogenesis and osteogenesis are closely coupled during the complex healing process. Here, we show with advanced longitudinal intravital multiphoton microscopy that early vascular sprouting is not directly coupled to osteoprogenitor invasion during calvarial bone regeneration. Early osteoprogenitors emerging from the periosteum give rise to bone-forming osteoblasts at the injured calvarial bone edge. Microvessels growing inside the lesions are not associated with osteoprogenitors. Subsequently, osteogenic cells collectively invade the vascularized and perfused lesion as a multicellular layer, thereby advancing regenerative ossification. Vascular sprouting and remodeling result in dynamic blood flow alterations to accommodate the growing bone. Single cell profiling of injured calvarial bones demonstrates mesenchymal stromal cell heterogeneity comparable to femoral fractures with increase in cell types promoting bone regeneration. Expression of angiogenesis and hypoxia-related genes are slightly elevated reflecting ossification of a vascularized lesion site. Endothelial Notch and VEGF signaling alter vascular growth in calvarial bone repair without affecting the ossification progress. Our findings may have clinical implications for bone regeneration and bioengineering approaches.

Abstract
The spontaneous healing of critical-sized bone defects is often limited, posing an increased risk of complications and suboptimal outcomes. Osteogenesis, a complex process central to bone formation, relies significantly on the pivotal role of osteoblasts. Despite the well-established osteogenic properties of vitamin D3 (VD3), its lipophilic nature confines administration to oral or muscle injection routes. Therefore, a strategic therapeutic approach involves designing a multifunctional carrier to enhance efficacy, potentially incorporating it into the delivery system. Here, we introduce an innovative sterosome-based delivery system, utilizing palmitic acid (PA) and VD3, aimed at promoting osteogenic differentiation and facilitating post-defect bone regeneration. The delivery system exhibited robust physical characteristics, including excellent stability, loading efficiency, sustained drug release and high cellular uptake efficiency. Furthermore, comprehensive investigations demonstrated outstanding biocompatibility and osteogenic potential in both 2D and 3D in vitro settings. A critical-sized calvarial defect model in mice recapitulated the notable osteogenic effects of the sterosomes in vivo. Collectively, our research proposes a clinically applicable strategy for bone healing, leveraging PA/VD3 sterosomes as an efficient carrier to deliver VD3 and enhance bone regenerative effects.

Abstract
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) suppress immune responses and inflammation. Here, we described the distinct nonimmunological role of Tregs in fracture healing. The recruitment from the circulation pool, peripheral induction, and local expansion rapidly enriched Tregs in the injured bone. The Tregs in the injured bone displayed superiority in direct osteogenesis over Tregs from lymphoid organs. Punctual depletion of Tregs compromised the fracture healing process, which leads to increased bone nonunion. In addition, bone callus Tregs showed unique T-cell receptor repertoires. Amphiregulin was the most overexpressed protein in bone callus Tregs, and it can directly facilitate the proliferation and differentiation of osteogenic precursor cells by activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B signaling pathways. The results of loss- and gain-function studies further evidenced that amphiregulin can reverse the compromised healing caused by Treg dysfunction. Tregs also enriched in patient bone callus and amphiregulin can promote the osteogenesis of human pre-osteoblastic cells. Our findings indicate the distinct and nonredundant role of Tregs in fracture healing, which will provide a new therapeutic target and strategy in the clinical treatment of fractures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Signal peptide (SP) engineering has proven able to improve production of many proteins yet is a laborious process that still relies on trial and error. mRNA structure around the translational start site is important in translation initiation and has rarely been considered in this context, with recent improvements in in silico mRNA structure potentially rendering it a useful predictive tool for SP selection. Here we attempt to create a method to systematically screen candidate signal peptide sequences in silico based on both their nucleotide and amino acid sequences. Several recently released computational tools were used to predict signal peptide activity (SignalP), localization target (DeepLoc) and predicted mRNA structure (MXFold2). The method was tested with Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2 (BMP2), an osteogenic growth factor used clinically for bone regeneration. It was hoped more effective BMP2 SPs could improve BMP2-based gene therapies and reduce the cost of recombinant BMP2 production. RESULTS Amino acid sequence analysis indicated 2,611 SPs from the TGF-β superfamily were predicted to function when attached to BMP2. mRNA structure prediction indicated structures at the translational start site were likely highly variable. The five sequences with the most accessible translational start sites, a codon optimized BMP2 SP variant and the well-established hIL2 SP sequence were taken forward to in vitro testing. The top five candidates showed non-significant improvements in BMP2 secretion in HEK293T cells. All showed reductions in secretion versus the native sequence in C2C12 cells, with several showing large and significant decreases. None of the tested sequences were able to increase alkaline phosphatase activity above background in C2C12s. The codon optimized control sequence and hIL2 SP showed reasonable activity in HEK293T but very poor activity in C2C12. CONCLUSIONS These results support the use of peptide sequence based in silico tools for basic predictions around signal peptide activity in a synthetic biology context. However, mRNA structure prediction requires improvement before it can produce reliable predictions for this application. The poor activity of the codon optimized BMP2 SP variant in C2C12 emphasizes the importance of codon choice, mRNA structure, and cellular context for SP activity.

Abstract
Surgical management of fractures has advanced with the incorporation of advanced technology, surgical techniques, and regenerative therapies, but delayed bone healing remains a clinical challenge and the prevalence of long bone nonunion ranges from 10 to 15% of surgically managed fractures. Delayed bone healing arises from a combination of mechanical, biological, and systemic factors acting on the site of tissue remodeling, and careful consideration of each case's injury-related, patient-dependent, surgical, and mechanical risk factors is key to successful bone union. In this review, we describe the biology and biomechanics of delayed bone healing, outline the known risk factors for nonunion development, and introduce modern preventative and corrective therapies targeting fracture nonunion.

Abstract
Refractory fracture presents an intractable challenge in trauma treatment. Selective polarization of macrophages as well as the recruitment of osteogenic precursor cells play key roles in osteogenic differentiation during fracture healing. Here we constructed regulatory T cell (Treg)-derived exosomes (Treg-Exo) for the treatment of fracture. The obtained exosomes displayed a spheroid shape with a hydrated particle size of approximately 130 nm. With further purification using CD39 and CD73 antibody-modified microfluidic chips, CD39 and CD73 specifically expressing exosomes were obtained. This kind of Treg-Exo utilized the ectonucleotidases of CD39 and CD73 to catalyze the high level of ATP in the fracture area into adenosine. The generated adenosine further promoted the selective polarization of macrophages. When interacting with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs, osteogenic precursor cells), both Treg-Exo and Treg-Exo primed macrophages facilitated the proliferation and differentiation of MSCs. After administration in vivo, Treg-Exo effectively promoted fracture healing compared with conventional T cell-derived exosome. To further improve the delivery efficacy of exosomes and integrate multiple biological processes of fracture healing, an injectable hydrogel was fabricated to co-deliver Treg-Exo and stromal cell-derived factor 1 alpha (SDF-1α). With the dual effect of Treg-Exo for macrophage polarization and SDF-1α for MSC recruitment, the multifunctional hydrogel exerted a synergistic effect on fracture repair acceleration. This study provided a promising therapeutic candidate and synergistic strategy for the clinical treatment of fracture.

Abstract
Zinc (Zn) plays a crucial role in bone metabolism and imbues biodegradable Zn-based materials with the ability to promote bone regeneration in bone trauma. However, the impact of Zn biodegradation on bone repair, particularly its influence on angiogenesis, remains unexplored. This study reveals that Zn biodegradation induces a consistent dose-dependent spatiotemporal response in angiogenesis,both in vivo and in vitro. In a critical bone defect model, an increase in Zn release intensity from day 3 to 10 post-surgery is observed. By day 10, the CD31-positive area around the Zn implant significantly surpasses that of the Ti implant, indicating enhanced angiogenesis. Furthermore,angiogenesis exhibits a distance-dependent pattern closely mirroring the distribution of Zn signals from the implant. In vitro experiments demonstrate that Zn extraction fosters the proliferation and migration of human umbilical vein endothelial cells and upregulates the key genes associated with tube formation, such as HIF-1α and VEGF-A, peaking at a concentration of 22.5 µM. Additionally, Zn concentrations within the range of 11.25-45 µM promote the polarization of M0-type macrophages toward the M2-type, while inhibiting polarization toward the M1-type. These findings provide essential insights into the biological effects of Zn on bone repair, shedding light on its potential applications.

Cells 2023; 13:40. [PMID: 38201244 PMCID: PMC10777943 DOI: 10.3390/cells13010040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/22/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The healing of a bone injury is a highly complex process involving a multitude of different tissue and cell types, including immune cells, which play a major role in the initiation and progression of bone regeneration. METHODS We histologically analyzed the spatio-temporal occurrence of cells of the innate immune system (macrophages), the adaptive immune system (B and T lymphocytes), and bone cells (osteoblasts and osteoclasts) in the fracture area of a femoral osteotomy over the healing time. This study was performed in a bone osteotomy gap mouse model. We also investigated two key challenges of successful bone regeneration: hypoxia and revascularization. RESULTS Macrophages were present in and around the fracture gap throughout the entire healing period. The switch from initially pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages to the anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype coincided with the revascularization as well as the appearance of osteoblasts in the fracture area. This indicates that M2 macrophages are necessary for the restoration of vessels and that they also play an orchestrating role in osteoblastogenesis during bone healing. The presence of adaptive immune cells throughout the healing process emphasizes their essential role for regenerative processes that exceeds a mere pathogen defense. B and T cells co-localize consistently with bone cells throughout the healing process, consolidating their crucial role in guiding bone formation. These histological data provide, for the first time, comprehensive information about the complex interrelationships of the cellular network during the entire bone healing process in one standardized set up. With this, an overall picture of the spatio-temporal interplay of cellular key players in a bone healing scenario has been created. CONCLUSIONS A spatio-temporal distribution of immune cells, bone cells, and factors driving bone healing at time points that are decisive for this process-especially during the initial steps of inflammation and revascularization, as well as the soft and hard callus phases-has been visualized. The results show that the bone healing cascade does not consist of five distinct, consecutive phases but is a rather complex interrelated and continuous process of events, especially at the onset of healing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-union formation still represents a major burden in trauma and orthopedic surgery. Moreover, aged patients are at an increased risk for bone healing failure. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) has been shown to accelerate fracture healing in young adult animals. However, there is no information whether PTH also stimulates bone regeneration in atrophic non-unions in the aged. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to analyze the effect of PTH on bone regeneration in an atrophic non-union model in aged CD-1 mice. METHODS After creation of a 1.8 mm segmental defect, mice femora were stabilized by pin-clip fixation. The animals were treated daily with either 200 mg/kg body weight PTH 1-34 (n = 17) or saline (control; n = 17) subcutaneously. Bone regeneration was analyzed by means of X-ray, biomechanics, micro-computed tomography (µCT) imaging as well as histological, immunohistochemical and Western blot analyses. RESULTS In PTH-treated animals bone formation was markedly improved when compared to controls. This was associated with an increased bending stiffness as well as a higher number of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive osteoclasts and CD31-positive microvessels within the callus tissue. Furthermore, PTH-treated aged animals showed a decreased inflammatory response, characterized by a lower number of MPO-positive granulocytes and CD68-positive macrophages within the bone defects when compared to controls. Additional Western blot analyses demonstrated a significantly higher expression of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) in PTH-treated mice. CONCLUSION Taken together, these findings indicate that PTH is an effective pharmacological compound for the treatment of non-union formation in aged animals.

Abstract
Regeneration is a complex process affected by many elements independent or combined, including inflammation, proliferation, and tissue remodeling. Stem cells is a class of primitive cells with the potentiality of differentiation, regenerate with self-replication, multidirectional differentiation, and immunomodulatory functions. Stem cells and their cytokines not only inextricably linked to the regeneration of ectodermal and skin tissues, but also can be used for the treatment of a variety of chronic wounds. Stem cells can produce exosomes in a paracrine manner. Stem cell exosomes play an important role in tissue regeneration, repair, and accelerated wound healing, the biological properties of which are similar with stem cells, while stem cell exosomes are safer and more effective. Skin and bone tissues are critical organs in the body, which are essential for sustaining life activities. The weak repairing ability leads a pronounced impact on the quality of life of patients, which could be alleviated by stem cell exosomes treatment. However, there are obstacles that stem cells and stem cells exosomes trough skin for improved bioavailability. This paper summarizes the applications and mechanisms of stem cells and stem cells exosomes for skin and bone healing. We also propose new ways of utilizing stem cells and their exosomes through different nanoformulations, liposomes and nanoliposomes, polymer micelles, microspheres, hydrogels, and scaffold microneedles, to improve their use in tissue healing and regeneration.

Abstract
Bone healing is associated with many orthopedic conditions, including fractures and osteonecrosis, arthritis, metabolic bone disease, tumors and periprosthetic particle-associated osteolysis. How to effectively promote bone healing has become a keen topic for researchers. The role of macrophages and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in bone healing has gradually come to light with the development of the concept of osteoimmunity. Their interaction regulates the balance between inflammation and regeneration, and when the inflammatory response is over-excited, attenuated, or disturbed, it results in the failure of bone healing. Therefore, an in-depth understanding of the function of macrophages and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in bone regeneration and the relationship between the two could provide new directions to promote bone healing. This paper reviews the role of macrophages and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in bone healing and the mechanism and significance of their interaction. Several new therapeutic ideas for regulating the inflammatory response in bone healing by targeting macrophages and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells crosstalk are also discussed.

Abstract
Promoting bone healing including fracture non-unions are promising targets for bone tissue engineering due to the limited success of current clinical treatment methods. There has been significant research on the use of stem cells with and without biomaterial scaffolds to treat bone fractures due to their promising regenerative capabilities. However, the relative roles of exogenous vs. endogenous stem cells and their overall contribution to in vivo fracture repair is not well understood. The purpose of this study was to determine the interaction between exogenous and endogenous stem cells during bone healing. This study was conducted using a standardized burr-hole bone injury model in a mesenchymal progenitor cell (MPC) lineage-tracing mouse under normal homeostatic and osteoporotic conditions. Burr-hole injuries were treated with a collagen-I biomaterial loaded with and without labelled induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Using lineage-tracing, the roles of exogenous and endogenous stem cells during bone healing were examined. It was observed that treatment with iPSCs resulted in muted healing compared to untreated controls in intact mice post-injury. When the cell populations were examined histologically, iPSC-treated burr-hole defects presented with a dramatic reduction in endogenous MPCs and cell proliferation throughout the injury site. However, when the ovaries were removed and an osteoporotic-like phenotype induced in the mice, iPSCs treatment resulted in increased bone formation relative to untreated controls. In the absence of iPSCs, endogenous MPCs demonstrated robust proliferative and osteogenic capacity to undertake repair and this behaviour was disrupted in the presence of iPSCs which instead took on an osteoblast fate but with little proliferation. This study clearly demonstrates that exogenously delivered cell populations can impact the normal function of endogenous stem/progenitor populations during the normal healing cascade. These interactions need to be better understood to inform cell and biomaterial therapies to treat fractures.

Abstract
Purpose Nonunion of fractures occurs in about 15% of all fractures causing repeated surgical interference and prolonged morbidity. We performed this systematic review to assess genes and polymorphisms influencing fractures' nonunion (FNU). Methods We searched between 2000 and July 2022 in PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) Catalog, and the Science Citation Index, with the keywords nonunion of fractures, genetic influence, and GWAS. The exclusion criteria were review articles and correspondence. The data were retrieved to determine the number of studies, genes, and polymorphisms and the total number of subjects screened. Results A total of 79 studies were reported on nonunion of fractures and genetic influence. After the inclusion and exclusion criteria, ten studies with 4402 patients' data were analyzed. Nine studies were case-controlled, and 1 GWAS. It was identified that patients with polymorphisms in the genes ANXA3, BMP2, CALY, CYR61, FGFR1, IL1β, NOG, NOS2, PDGF gene, and TACR1 are prone to develop a nonunion of fractures. Conclusion We believe that for patients who develop an early nonunion of fractures, a genetic study should be conducted for single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and genes so that alternative and more aggressive treatment can be performed to heal fractures without prolonged morbidity.

Abstract
FallberichtBei einem Sturz beim Fußballspielen zog sich der gesunde, damals 38 Jahre
alte Patient eine skapholunäre (SL-) Bandläsion links zu. In
Folge waren innerhalb von sieben Jahren insgesamt 13 operative Eingriffe
nötig, bis eine vollständige Konsolidation der zuletzt angestrebten
Skapho-Trapezio-Trapezoidal-(STT)-Arthrodese erreicht wurde. 5 Jahre nach der
Verletzung auf der linken Seite kam es im Rahmen eines Distorsionstraumas
rechts ebenfalls zu einer SL-Bandverletzung bei dem Patienten. Bei einem
Stadium Geissler III wurde in einem auswärtigen Spital eine dynamische
Stabilisierung mit einer ECRL-Sehnenplastik durchgeführt. Bei zunehmender
SL-Dissoziation wurde aufgrund der Erfahrung mit der gleichen Problematik links
schlussendlich eine Panarthrodese des rechten Handgelenkes vorgenommen.

Abstract
Cigarette smoking promotes osteoclast activity, thus increasing the risk of secondary osteoporosis, leading to osteoporosis-associated fracture and impaired fracture healing. Heated tobacco products (HTP) are considered potential reduced-risk alternatives to cigarettes. However, their impact on bone metabolism remains to be elucidated. We developed an in vitro model that mimics in vivo bone cell interactions to comparatively evaluate the effects of HTPs and cigarette smoke on bone cell functionality and viability. We generated an in vitro coculture system with SCP-1 and THP-1 cells (1:8 ratio) cultured on a decellularized Saos-2 matrix with an optimized coculture medium. We found that, following acute or chronic exposure, particulate matter extract from the aerosol of an HTP, the Tobacco Heating System (THS), was less harmful to the bone coculture system than reference cigarette (1R6F) smoke extract. In the fracture healing model, cultures exposed to the THS extract maintained similar osteoclast activity and calcium deposits as control cultures. Conversely, smoke extract exposure promoted osteoclast activity, resulting in an osteoporotic environment, whose formation could be prevented by bisphosphonate coadministration. Thus, THS is potentially less harmful than cigarette smoke to bone cell differentiation and bone mineralization - both being crucial aspects during the reparative phase of fracture healing.

Abstract
Bone has a remarkable endogenous regenerative capacity that enables scarless healing and restoration of its prior mechanical function, even under challenging conditions such as advanced age and metabolic or immunological degenerative diseases. However - despite much progress - a high number of bone injuries still heal with unsatisfactory outcomes. The mechanisms leading to impaired healing are heterogeneous, and involve exuberant and non-resolving immune reactions or overstrained mechanical conditions that affect the delicate regulation of the early initiation of scar-free healing. Every healing process begins phylogenetically with an inflammatory reaction, but its spatial and temporal intensity must be tightly controlled. Dysregulation of this inflammatory cascade directly affects the subsequent healing phases and hinders the healing progression. This Review discusses the complex processes underlying bone regeneration, focusing on the early healing phase and its highly dynamic environment, where vibrant changes in cellular and tissue composition alter the mechanical environment and thus affect the signalling pathways that orchestrate the healing process. Essential to scar-free healing is the interplay of various dynamic cascades that control timely resolution of local inflammation and tissue self-organization, while also providing sufficient local stability to initiate endogenous restoration. Various immunotherapy and mechanobiology-based therapy options are under investigation for promoting bone regeneration.

Abstract
Patients suffering from musculoskeletal diseases must cope with a diminished quality of life and an increased burden on medical expenses. The interaction of immune cells and mesenchymal stromal cells during bone regeneration is one of the key requirements for the restoration of skeletal integrity. While stromal cells of the osteo-chondral lineage support bone regeneration, an excessive accumulation of cells of the adipogenic lineage is thought to promote low-grade inflammation and impair bone regeneration. Increasing evidence indicates that pro-inflammatory signaling from adipocytes is responsible for various chronic musculoskeletal diseases. This review aims to summarize the features of bone marrow adipocytes by phenotype, function, secretory features, metabolic properties and their impact on bone formation. In detail, the master regulator of adipogenesis and prominent diabetes drug target, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARG), will be debated as a potential therapeutic approach to enhance bone regeneration. We will explore the possibilities of using clinically established PPARG agonists, the thiazolidinediones (TZDs), as a treatment strategy to guide the induction of a pro-regenerative, metabolically active bone marrow adipose tissue. The impact of this PPARG induced bone marrow adipose tissue type on providing the necessary metabolites to sustain osteogenic-as well as beneficial immune cells during bone fracture healing will be highlighted.

Abstract
Cell therapies offer a tailorable, personalized treatment for use in tissue engineering to address defects arising from trauma, inefficient wound repair, or congenital malformation. However, most cell therapies have achieved limited success to date. Typically injected in solution as monodispersed cells, transplanted cells exhibit rapid cell death or insufficient retention at the site, thereby limiting their intended effects to only a few days. Spheroids, which are dense, three-dimensional (3D) aggregates of cells, enhance the beneficial effects of cell therapies by increasing and prolonging cell-cell and cell-matrix signaling. The use of spheroids is currently under investigation for many cell types. Among cells under evaluation, spheroids formed of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are particularly promising. MSC spheroids not only exhibit increased cell survival and retained differentiation, but they also secrete a potent secretome that promotes angiogenesis, reduces inflammation, and attracts endogenous host cells to promote tissue regeneration and repair. However, the clinical translation of spheroids has lagged behind promising preclinical outcomes due to hurdles in their formation, instruction, and use that have yet to be overcome. This review will describe the current state of preclinical spheroid research and highlight two key examples of spheroid use in clinically relevant disease modeling. It will highlight techniques used to instruct the phenotype and function of spheroids, describe current limitations to their use, and offer suggestions for the effective translation of cell spheroids for therapeutic treatments.

Abstract
The treatment of osteoporotic fractures is a severe clinical issue, especially in cases where low support is provided, e.g., pelvis. New treatments aim to stimulate bone formation in compromised scenarios by using multifunctional biomaterials combined with biofabrication techniques to produce 3D structures (scaffolds) that can support bone formation. Bone’s extracellular matrix (ECM) is mainly composed of type I collagen, making this material highly desirable in bone tissue engineering applications, and its bioactivity can be improved by incorporating specific biomolecules. In this work, type I collagen membranes were produced by electrospinning showing a fibre diameter below 200 nm. An optimized one-step strategy allowed to simultaneously crosslink the electrospun membranes and bind ICOS-Fc, a biomolecule able to reversibly inhibit osteoclast activity. The post-treatment did not alter the ECM-like nanostructure of the meshes and the physicochemical properties of collagen. UV-Vis and TGA analyses confirmed both crosslinking and grafting of ICOS-Fc onto the collagen fibres. The preservation of the biological activity of grafted ICOS-Fc was evidenced by the ability to affect the migratory activity of ICOSL-positive cells. The combination of ICOS-Fc with electrospun collagen represents a promising strategy to design multifunctional devices able to boost bone regeneration in osteoporotic fractures.

Abstract
The treatment of large bone defects is a clinical challenge. 3D printed scaffolds are a promising treatment option for such critical-size defects. However, the design of scaffolds to treat such defects is challenging due to the large number of variables impacting bone regeneration; material stiffness, architecture or equivalent scaffold stiffness—due it specific architecture—have all been demonstrated to impact cell behavior and regeneration outcome. Computer design optimization is a powerful tool to find optimal design solutions within a large parameter space for given anatomical constraints. Following this approach, scaffold structures have been optimized to avoid mechanical failure while providing beneficial mechanical stimulation for bone formation within the scaffold pores immediately after implantation. However, due to the dynamics of the bone regeneration process, the mechanical conditions do change from immediately after surgery throughout healing, thus influencing the regeneration process. Therefore, we propose a computer framework to optimize scaffold designs that allows to promote the final bone regeneration outcome. The framework combines a previously developed and validated mechanobiological bone regeneration computer model, a surrogate model for bone healing outcome and an optimization algorithm to optimize scaffold design based on the level of regenerated bone volume. The capability of the framework is verified by optimization of a cylindrical scaffold for the treatment of a critical-size tibia defect, using a clinically relevant large animal model. The combined framework allowed to predict the long-term healing outcome. Such novel approach opens up new opportunities for sustainable strategies in scaffold designs of bone regeneration.

Abstract
Despite growing knowledge about the mechanisms of fracture healing, non-union formation still represents a major complication in trauma and orthopedic surgery. Non-union models in mice gain increasing interest, because they allow investigating the molecular and cellular mechanisms of failed fracture healing. These models often use segmental defects to achieve non-union formation. Alternatively, failed fracture healing can be induced by transverse fractures with additional periosteal injury. The present study systematically compared the reliability of these two approaches to serve as non-union model. A 0.6 mm K-wire was inserted into the femora of CD-1 mice in a retrograde fashion and a closed transverse femoral fracture was created. Subsequently, the fracture site was exposed and the periosteum was cauterized. This approach was compared with a well-established non-union model involving the pin-clip fixation of a 1.8 mm segmental defect. The callus tissue was analyzed by means of radiography, biomechanics, histology and Western blotting. At 10 weeks after surgery 10 out of 12 femora (83.3 %) of the K-wire group showed a non-union formation. The pin-clip model resulted in 100 % non-union formation. The K-wire group showed increased bone formation, osteoclast activity and bending stiffness when compared to the group with pin-clip fixation. This was associated with a higher expression of bone formation markers. However, the number of CD31-positive microvessels was reduced in the K-wire group, indicating an impaired angiogenic capacity after periosteal cauterization. These findings suggest that the pin-clip model is more reliable for the study of non-union formation in mice. The K-wire model including periosteal injury by cauterization however, may be particularly applied in preclinical studies which explore the effects of damaged periosteum and reduced angiogenic capacity to trauma-induced fractures.

Abstract
While the axolotl's ability to completely regenerate amputated limbs is well known and studied, the mechanism of axolotl bone fracture healing remains poorly understood. One reason might be the lack of a standardized fracture fixation in axolotl. We present a surgical technique to stabilize the osteotomized axolotl femur with a fixator plate and compare it to a non-stabilized osteotomy and to limb amputation. The healing outcome was evaluated 3 weeks, 3, 6 and 9 months post-surgery by microcomputer tomography, histology and immunohistochemistry. Plate-fixated femurs regained bone integrity more efficiently in comparison to the non-fixated osteotomized bone, where larger callus formed, possibly to compensate for the bone fragment misalignment. The healing of a non-critical osteotomy in axolotl was incomplete after 9 months, while amputated limbs efficiently restored bone length and structure. In axolotl amputated limbs, plate-fixated and non-fixated fractures, we observed accumulation of PCNA+ proliferating cells at 3 weeks post-injury similar to mouse. Additionally, as in mouse, SOX9-expressing cells appeared in the early phase of fracture healing and amputated limb regeneration in axolotl, preceding cartilage formation. This implicates endochondral ossification to be the probable mechanism of bone healing in axolotls. Altogether, the surgery with a standardized fixation technique demonstrated here allows for controlled axolotl bone healing experiments, facilitating their comparison to mammals (mice).

Abstract
Large bone defects represent a clinical challenge for which the implantation of scaffolds appears as a promising strategy. However, their use in clinical routine is limited, in part due to a lack of understanding of how scaffolds should be designed to support regeneration. Here, we use the power of computer modeling to investigate mechano-biological principles behind scaffold-guided bone regeneration and the influence of scaffold design on the regeneration process. Computer model predictions are compared to experimental data of large bone defect regeneration in sheep. We identified two main key players in scaffold-guided regeneration: (1) the scaffold surface guidance of cellular migration and tissue formation processes and (2) the stimulation of progenitor cell activity by the scaffold material composition. In addition, lower scaffold surface-area-to-volume ratio was found to be beneficial for bone regeneration due to enhanced cellular migration. To a lesser extent, a reduced scaffold Young's modulus favored bone formation. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: 3D-printed scaffolds offer promising treatment strategies for large bone defects but their broader clinical use requires a more thorough understanding of their interaction with the bone regeneration process. The predictions of our in silico model compared to two experimental set-ups highlighted the importance of (1) the scaffold surface guidance of cellular migration and tissue formation processes and (2) the scaffold material stimulation of progenitor cell activity. In addition, the model was used to investigate the effect on the bone regeneration process of (1) the scaffold surface-area-to-volume ratio, with lower ratios favoring more bone growth, and (2) the scaffold material properties, with stiffer scaffold materials yielding a lower bone growth.

Abstract
Despite the recent advances in reconstructive orthopedics; fracture union is a challenge to bone regeneration. Concurrent angiogenesis is a complex process governed by events, delicately entwined with osteogenesis. However, poorly perfused scaffolds have lower success rates; necessitating the need for a better vascular component, which is important for the delivery of nutrients, oxygen, waste elimination, recruitment of cells for optimal bone repair. This review highlights the latest strategies to promote biomaterial-based scaffold vascularization by incorporation of cells, growth factors, inorganic ions, etc. into natural or synthetic polymers, ceramic materials, or composites of organic and inorganic compounds. Furthermore, it emphasizes structural modifications, biophysical stimuli, and natural molecules to fabricate scaffolds aiding the genesis of dense vascularization following their implantation to manifest a compatible regenerative microenvironment without graft rejection.

Abstract
The use of a bone allograft presents a promising approach for healing nonunion fractures. We have previously reported that parathyroid hormone (PTH) therapy induced allograft integration while modulating angiogenesis at the allograft proximity. Here, we hypothesize that PTH-induced vascular modulation and the osteogenic effect of PTH are both dependent on endothelial PTH receptor-1 (PTHR1) signaling. To evaluate our hypothesis, we used multiple transgenic mouse lines, and their wild-type counterparts as a control. In addition to endothelial-specific PTHR1 knock-out mice, we used mice in which PTHR1 was engineered to be constitutively active in collagen-1α+ osteoblasts, to assess the effect of PTH signaling activation exclusively in osteoprogenitors. To characterize resident cell recruitment and osteogenic activity, mice in which the Luciferase reporter gene is expressed under the Osteocalcin promoter (Oc-Luc) were used. Mice were implanted with calvarial allografts and treated with either PTH or PBS. A micro-computed tomography-based structural analysis indicated that the induction of bone formation by PTH, as observed in wild-type animals, was not maintained when PTHR1 was removed from endothelial cells. Furthermore, the induction of PTH signaling exclusively in osteoblasts resulted in significantly less bone formation compared to systemic PTH treatment, and significantly less osteogenic activity was measured by bioluminescence imaging of the Oc-Luc mice. Deletion of the endothelial PTHR1 significantly decreased the PTH-induced formation of narrow blood vessels, formerly demonstrated in wild-type mice. However, the exclusive activation of PTH signaling in osteoblasts was sufficient to re-establish the observed PTH effect. Collectively, our results show that endothelial PTHR1 signaling plays a key role in PTH-induced osteogenesis and has implications in angiogenesis.

Abstract
Despite major research efforts to elucidate mechanisms of non-union formation, failed fracture healing remains a common complication in orthopedic surgery. Adequate vascularization has been recognized as a crucial factor for successful bone regeneration, as newly formed microvessels guarantee the supply of the callus tissue with vital oxygen, nutrients, and growth factors. Accordingly, a vast number of preclinical studies have focused on the development of vascularization strategies to stimulate fracture repair. However, recent evidence suggests that stimulation of blood vessel formation is an oversimplified approach to support bone regeneration. This review discusses the role of vascularization during bone regeneration and delineates a phenomenon, for which we coin the term “the vascularization paradox of non-union-formation”. This view is based on the results of a variety of experimental studies that suggest that the callus tissue of non-unions is indeed densely vascularized and that pro-angiogenic mediators, such as vascular endothelial growth factor, are sufficiently expressed at the facture site. By gaining further insights into the molecular and cellular basis of non-union vascularization, it may be possible to develop more optimized treatment approaches or even prevent the non-union formation in the future.

Abstract
Amputation of the mouse digit tip results in blastema-mediated regeneration. In this model, new bone regenerates de novo to lengthen the amputated stump bone, resulting in a functional replacement of the terminal phalangeal element along with associated non-skeletal tissues. Physiological examples of bone repair, such as distraction osteogenesis and fracture repair, are well known to require mechanical loading. However, the role of mechanical loading during mammalian digit tip regeneration is unknown. In this study, we demonstrate that reducing mechanical loading inhibits blastema formation by attenuating bone resorption and wound closure, resulting in the complete inhibition of digit regeneration. Mechanical unloading effects on wound healing and regeneration are completely reversible when mechanical loading is restored. Mechanical unloading after blastema formation results in a reduced rate of de novo bone formation, demonstrating mechanical load dependence of the bone regenerative response. Moreover, enhancing the wound-healing response of mechanically unloaded digits with the cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive Dermabond improves wound closure and partially rescues digit tip regeneration. Taken together, these results demonstrate that mammalian digit tip regeneration is mechanical load-dependent. Given that human fingertip regeneration shares many characteristics with the mouse digit tip, these results identify mechanical load as a previously unappreciated requirement for de novo bone regeneration in humans. © 2021 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
Background More recently, there was a series of clinical studies focusing on local administration of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in long-bone fracture patients suffering from delayed union and nonunion. Therefore, we performed a systematic review to evaluate the effectiveness of PRP injection for treatment of patients with long-bone delayed union and nonunion. Methods Relevant clinical trials were selected by the main bibliographic databases, including Medline, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane library, to evaluate the effectiveness of PRP for long-bone fracture patients diagnosed with delayed union or nonunion by two reviewers independently. The main outcomes included healing rate, healing duration, pain relief, functional outcome, and complications. Results Finally, thirteen studies including four hundred and fifty-nine participants met the selection criteria and were included in this systematic review. These articles included three randomized controlled studies, one prospective study, and nine retrospective studies. 146 out of 155 (94.19%) patients treated with PRP during operation, and 144 out of 183 (78.69%) patients treated with PRP injection alone, exhibited bone consolidation. The healing rate of the PRP group (85.80%) was higher than that of the control group (60.76%). The mean bony union time of patients treated and untreated with PRP, were, respectively, 4.64 and 5.15 months. Four papers reported that PRP was effective in pain relief of patient with delayed union and nonunion. Complications, including small subcutaneous hematoma, subcutaneous swelling, and postoperative infection, were also reported in enrolled studies. Conclusions PRP is a promising alternative treatment for patients with long-bone delayed union and nonunion. PRP could successfully promote the healing rate and relieve the pain of patients with delayed union and nonunion. However, the long-term adverse side and functional outcome in application of PRP still need further large-scale trials and long-term follow-up.

Limited potential of AAV-mediated gene therapy in transducing human mesenchymal stem cells for bone repair applications. Gene Ther 2021; 28:729-739.

Abstract
Adeno-associated viral vectors (AAV) are unique in their ability to transduce a variety of both dividing and nondividing cells, with significantly lower risk of random genomic integration and with no known pathogenicity in humans, but their role in ex vivo regional gene therapy for bone repair has not been definitively established. The goal of this study was to test the ability of AAV vectors carrying the cDNA for BMP-2 to transduce human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), produce BMP-2, and induce osteogenesis in vitro as compared with lentiviral gene therapy with a two-step transcriptional amplification system lentiviral vector (LV-TSTA). To this end, we created two AAV vectors (serotypes 2 and 6) expressing the target transgene; eGFP or BMP-2. Transduction of human MSCs isolated from bone marrow (BMSCs) or adipose tissue (ASCs) with AAV2-eGFP and AAV6-eGFP led to low transduction efficiency (BMSCs: 3.57% and 8.82%, respectively, ASCs: 6.17 and 20.2%, respectively) and mean fluorescence intensity as seen with FACS analysis 7 days following transduction, even at MOIs as high as 106. In contrast, strong eGFP expression was detectable in all of the cell types post transduction with LV-TSTA-eGFP. Transduction with BMP-2 producing vectors led to minimal BMP-2 production in AAV-transduced cells 2 and 7 days following transduction. In addition, transduction of ASCs and BMSCs with AAV2-BMP-2 and AAV6-BMP-2 did not enhance their osteogenic potential as seen with an alizarin red assay. In contrast, the LV-TSTA-BMP-2-transduced cells were characterized by an abundant BMP-2 production and induction of the osteogenic phenotype in vitro (p < 0.001 vs. AAV2 and 6). Our results demonstrate that the AAV2 and AAV6 vectors cannot induce a significant transgene expression in human BMSCs and ASCs, even at MOIs as high as 106. The LV-TSTA vector is significantly superior in transducing human MSCs; thus this vector would be preferable when developing an ex vivo regional gene therapy strategy for clinical use in orthopedic surgery applications.

Abstract
In this narrative review, the role of vitamin D deficiency in the pathophysiology, healing of fragility fractures, and rehabilitation is discussed. Vitamin D status can be assessed by measuring serum 25(OH)-vitamin D level with standardized assays. There is a high prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency (25(OH)D < 50 nmol/l (i.e., 20 ng/mL)) or deficiency (25(OH)D < 25 nmol/l (i.e., 10 ng/mL)) in patients with fragility fractures and especially in those with a hip fracture. The evidence on the effects of vitamin D deficiency and/or vitamin D supplementation on fracture healing and material osseointegration is still limited. However, it appears that vitamin D have a rather positive influence on these processes. The fracture liaison service (FLS) model can help to inform orthopedic surgeons, all caregivers, and fractured patients about the importance of optimal vitamin D status in the management of patients with fragility fractures. Therefore, vitamin D status should be included in Capture the Fracture® program as an outcome of FLS in addition to dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and specific antiosteoporosis medication. Vitamin D plays a significant role in the pathophysiology and healing of fragility fractures and in rehabilitation after fracture. Correction of vitamin D deficiency should be one of the main outcomes in fracture liaison services.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone fractures are a global public health issue; however, to date, no comprehensive study of their incidence and burden has been done. We aimed to measure the global, regional, and national incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability (YLDs) of fractures from 1990 to 2019. METHODS Using the framework of the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019, we compared numbers and age-standardised rates of global incidence, prevalence, and YLDs of fractures across the 21 GBD regions and 204 countries and territories, by age, sex, and year, from 1990 to 2019. We report estimates with 95% uncertainty intervals (UIs). FINDINGS Globally, in 2019, there were 178 million (95% UI 162-196) new fractures (an increase of 33·4% [30·1-37·0] since 1990), 455 million (428-484) prevalent cases of acute or long-term symptoms of a fracture (an increase of 70·1% [67·5-72·5] since 1990), and 25·8 million (17·8-35·8) YLDs (an increase of 65·3% [62·4-68·0] since 1990). The age-standardised rates of fractures in 2019 were 2296·2 incident cases (2091·1-2529·5) per 100 000 population (a decrease of 9·6% [8·1-11·1] since 1990), 5614·3 prevalent cases (5286·1-5977·5) per 100 000 population (a decrease of 6·7% [5·7-7·6] since 1990), and 319·0 YLDs (220·1-442·5) per 100 000 population (a decrease of 8·4% [7·2-9·5] since 1990). Lower leg fractures of the patella, tibia or fibula, or ankle were the most common and burdensome fracture in 2019, with an age-standardised incidence rate of 419·9 cases (345·8-512·0) per 100 000 population and an age-standardised rate of YLDs of 190·4 (125·0-276·9) per 100 000 population. In 2019, age-specific rates of fracture incidence were highest in the oldest age groups, with, for instance, 15 381·5 incident cases (11 245·3-20 651·9) per 100 000 population in those aged 95 years and older. INTERPRETATION The global age-standardised rates of incidence, prevalence, and YLDs for fractures decreased slightly from 1990 to 2019, but the absolute counts increased substantially. Older people have a particularly high risk of fractures, and more widespread injury-prevention efforts and access to screening and treatment of osteoporosis for older individuals should help to reduce the overall burden.

Abstract
Acemannan, a linear polysaccharide produced by Aloe vera, has been shown to have important biological effects promoting wound healing and tissue regeneration. The aim of this randomized clinical trial was to investigate the impact of acemannan in guided bone regeneration (GBR) with simultaneous implant placement. Twenty patients were randomly allocated to a test group (deproteinized bovine bone with particulate acemannan (mean size 32.45 μm)) and a control group (deproteinized bovine bone only). Twenty implants were placed with simultaneous GBR. Radiographic measurements were conducted on cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans immediately post-surgery and at 3 and 6 months. Vertical and horizontal dimensions of the buccal bone were measured at the implant platform (0) and at points 2, 4, 6, and 8 mm apically. The dimensional reduction of vertical and horizontal buccal bone was significantly smaller in the test group at 3 months postoperative (P < 0.05) at every position measured (0, 2, 4, 6, 8 mm), but the difference was not statistically significant at 6 months. Acemannan was found to be a safe and predictable biomaterial for GBR, which resulted in enhanced dimensional stability of the regenerated tissue at 3 months. However, these results were not replicated at 6 months. Further studies are required to document the long-term efficacy and potential of acemannan use as a supplement in bone regeneration.

Percutaneous administration of allogeneic bone-forming cells for the treatment of delayed unions of fractures: a pilot study. Stem Cell Res Ther 2021; 12:363. [PMID: 34174963 PMCID: PMC8235864 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-021-02432-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2020] [Accepted: 06/06/2021] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Overall, 5–10% of fractures result in delayed unions or non-unions, causing major disabilities and a huge socioeconomic burden. Since rescue surgery with autologous bone grafts can cause additional challenges, alternative treatment options have been developed to stimulate a deficient healing process. This study assessed the technical feasibility, safety and preliminary efficacy of local percutaneous implantation of allogeneic bone-forming cells in delayed unions of long bone fractures. Methods In this phase I/IIA open-label pilot trial, 22 adult patients with non-infected delayed unions of long bone fractures, which failed to consolidate after 3 to 7 months, received a percutaneous implantation of allogeneic bone-forming cells derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (ALLOB; Bone Therapeutics) into the fracture site (50 × 106 to 100 × 106 cells). Patients were monitored for adverse events and need for rescue surgery for 30 months. Fracture healing was monitored by Tomographic Union Score (TUS) and modified Radiographic Union Score. The health status was evaluated using the Global Disease Evaluation (GDE) score and pain at palpation using a visual analogue scale. The presence of reactive anti-human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibodies was evaluated. Results During the 6-month follow-up, three serious treatment-emergent adverse events were reported in two patients, of which two were considered as possibly treatment-related. None of the 21 patients in the per-protocol efficacy population needed rescue surgery within 6 months, but 2/21 (9.5%) patients had rescue surgery within 30 months post-treatment. At 6 months post-treatment, an improvement of at least 2 points in TUS was reached in 76.2% of patients, the GDE score improved by a mean of 48%, and pain at palpation at the fracture site was reduced by an average of 61% compared to baseline. The proportion of blood samples containing donor-specific anti-HLA antibodies increased from 8/22 (36.4%) before treatment to 13/22 (59.1%) at 6 months post-treatment, but no treatment-mediated allogeneic immune reactions were observed. Conclusion This pilot study showed that the percutaneous implantation of allogeneic bone-forming cells was technically feasible and well tolerated in patients with delayed unions of long bone fractures. Preliminary efficacy evidence is supporting the further development of this treatment. Trial registration NCT02020590. Registered on 25 December 2013.

Abstract
Mechano-transduction is the procedure of mechanical stimulus translation via cells, among substrate shear flow, topography, and stiffness into a biochemical answer. TAZ and YAP are transcriptional coactivators which are recognized as relay proteins that promote mechano-transduction within the Hippo pathway. With regard to healthy cells in homeostasis, mechano-transduction regularly restricts proliferation, and TAZ and YAP are totally inactive. During cancer development a YAP/TAZ - stimulating positive response loop is formed between the growing tumor and the stiffening ECM. As tumor developments, local stromal and cancerous cells take advantage of mechanotransduction to enhance proliferation, induce their migratory into remote tissues, and promote chemotherapeutic resistance. As a newly progresses paradigm, nanoparticle-conjunctions (such as magnetic nanoparticles, and graphene derivatives nanoparticles) hold significant promises for remote regulation of cells and their relevant events at molecular scale. Despite outstanding developments in employing nanoparticles for drug targeting studies, the role of nanoparticles on cellular behaviors (proliferation, migration, and differentiation) has still required more evaluations in the field of mechanotherapy. In this paper, the in-depth contribution of mechano-transduction is discussed during tumor progression, and how these consequences can be evaluated in vitro.

Abstract
Large bone defects remain a clinical challenge because they do not heal spontaneously. 3-D printed scaffolds are a promising treatment option for such critical defects. Recent scaffold design strategies have made use of computer modelling techniques to optimize scaffold design. In particular, scaffold geometries have been optimized to avoid mechanical failure and recently also to provide a distinct mechanical stimulation to cells within the scaffold pores. This way, mechanical strain levels are optimized to favour the bone tissue formation. However, bone regeneration is a highly dynamic process where the mechanical conditions immediately after surgery might not ensure optimal regeneration throughout healing. Here, we investigated in silico whether scaffolds presenting optimal mechanical conditions for bone regeneration immediately after surgery also present an optimal design for the full regeneration process. A computer framework, combining an automatic parametric scaffold design generation with a mechano-biological bone regeneration model, was developed to predict the level of regenerated bone volume for a large range of scaffold designs and to compare it with the scaffold pore volume fraction under favourable mechanical stimuli immediately after surgery. We found that many scaffold designs could be considered as highly beneficial for bone healing immediately after surgery; however, most of them did not show optimal bone formation in later regenerative phases. This study allowed to gain a more thorough understanding of the effect of scaffold geometry changes on bone regeneration and how to maximize regenerated bone volume in the long term.

Abstract
Complex comminuted fractures are accompanied by development of bone defects and loss of reparative potential of the bone tissue in the region of the trauma. This brings the necessity of using implants with optimum osteoconductive and osteointegration properties. The objective of the study was determining the condition of biochemical bone markers and peculiarities of histomorphological changes under the influence of ceramic hydroxyapatite (HA) implants with various physical-chemical properties in the conditions of diaphyseal bone defects in rabbits. We composed control and experimental groups of rabbits with 10 individuals in each with diaphyseal bone defects (3 mm) of the radial bones formed under general anesthesia. In one experimental group, they were filled with granules of hydroxyapatite with α-tricalcium phosphate, and in the second group – with β-tricalcium phosphate, alloyed with Si. In the control rabbits, the defects healed under a blood clot. Blood was analyzed on the 3rd, 7th, 14th, 21st and 42nd days, and as reference we used biochemical parameters of blood of clinically healthy rabbits (n = 10). Bone biopsied materials were taken on days 21–42 under general anesthesia. When using hydroxyapatite with β-tricalcium phosphate, alloyed with Si, we determined early intensification of the levels of nitrogen oxide, angiogenesis and development of bone regenerate in conditions of shortening of inflammatory resorption phase, which was verified according to the level of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase. According to the level of bone isoenzyme of alkaline phosphatase in the blood serum of animals of the control group, the reparative osteogenesis developed slowly and peaked on day 42, whereas in animals implanted with α-tricalcium phosphate, its development peaked peaked on days 14–42, and when using Si-alloy – on days 7–14. Histomorphologically, on the 21st day, in the case of replacement of bone defect with hydroxyapatite with α-tricalcium phosphate, coarse-fibered type of bone regenerate developed with no dense contact with the elements of the regenerate, while spongy bone trabeculae occurred when hydroxyapatite was applied with β-tricalcium phosphate alloyed with Si, and the control rabbits were observed to be in the stage of cartilaginous callus. On the 42nd day, under the influence of implants of hydroxyapatite with α-tricalcium phosphate, the spongy bone tissue transformed into compact tissue with further mineralization. With implants alloyed with Si, there occurred compact bone tissue, and bone regenerates of the control animals were regions of coarse-fibered and spongy bone tissue without dense contact with the parent bone. This study revealed that hydroxyapatite with β-tricalcium phosphate alloyed with Si had notable osteoinductive and osteointegrating properties, as indicated by early angiogenesis and osteoblast reaction, positive dynamics of the marker biochemical parameters with faster and better development of bone regenerate as spongy bone trabeculae.

Abstract
Vitamin D is considered to play an important role in musculoskeletal health. It’s classical function is the regulation of calcium and phosphate homeostasis, thus ensuring a balanced bone metabolism that is characterised by an equal amount of bone resorption and bone formation. In the past decades, a plethora of pre-clinical and clinical studies reporting on potential health-beneficial properties of vitamin D have emerged. Moreover, there is an abundance of reports highlighting vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency in patients with almost innumerable diseases. Further, it is estimated that more than one billion people globally are affected by insufficient vitamin D levels. As such, research on vitamin D has been particularly popular over the past years. In orthopaedics and traumatology, most studies describe favourable effects of vitamin D in general. However, the relative importance of vitamin D is oftentimes debated. In this narrative review of the literature, we consider first, the properties of vitamin D and how vitamin D, vitamin D deficiency and the vitamin D receptor (VDR) impact on musculoskeletal health. Secondly, we provide an overview of studies reporting the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in traumatology and diverse orthopaedic diseases including bone oncology. Lastly, we emphasise recent findings and touch on future perspectives in vitamin D research.

Abstract
Non-union is a serious postoperative complication of fracture. Early detection and intervention can avoid revision surgery. Platelet-rich plasma releases many active tissue factors and has potential to promote fracture healing. Percutaneous injection of platelet-rich plasma at the fracture site may avoid surgical treatment when non-union occurs. We present a case of atrophic non-union of an ulna fracture treated conservatively with percutaneous injection of platelet-rich plasma.

Abstract
Fracture healing has four phases: haematoma formation, soft callus, hard callus and remodelling. Often, non-healing fractures have an arrest of one of these phases, which need resurgery. We have repurposed denosumab for impaired fracture healing cases to avoid surgical intervention. Here, we report a series of three cases of impaired fracture healing where denosumab was given 120 mg subcutaneous dosages for 3 months to enhance healing. All the three cases have shown complete bone union at a mean follow-up of 6.7 months (5-9 months) as assessed clinically and radiologically, and have observed no adverse effect of the therapy. Denosumab given in this dose aids fracture healing by increasing callus volume, density and bridges the fracture gap in recalcitrant fracture healing cases where the callus fails to consolidate.

Abstract
Background The management of bone defect due to trauma or surgical debridement is a current problem in orthopedic trauma surgery, often complicated by infection and bone nonunion. The graft is one of the most challenging variables in surgical treatment. Bioactive Glass (BAG) as a biocompatible and osteogenic product is a promising bone substitute showing good results in maxillo-facial-, spine surgery and treatment of osteomyelitis. Surprisingly, there is very little data on BAG use in trauma surgery. Case presentation A 51-year-old male patient, involved in a motorcycle accident, suffered an open proximal tibia fracture, type IIIC, of the left leg. Patient was admitted in January of 2013 to a general orthopedic department for surgical treatment. After several surgical revisions due to infection, vascular damage, and bone nonunion, the patient was successfully treated with Masquelet therapy followed by GlassBONE™ grafting (GlassBONE™ 45S5; Norarker). The patient demonstrated excellent results over the course of a two-year follow-up. Conclusions In our experience, GlassBONE™ 45S5 has proven to be an effective bone substitute even in difficult grafting conditions, including multiple surgical revisions for bone nonunion and infection. In our case, at the end of 2 years and 3 months of follow-up, the patient reported no pain, and had no signs of infection. Bone union and full weight bearing was achieved. This case report is oriented by the CARE guidelines for clinical case reports; the patient gave consent for publication. GlassBONE™ 45S5 has proven to be an effective bone substitute even in difficult grafting conditions. Bone nonunion was successfully treated with Masquelet therapy followed by GlassBONE™ grafting. Bone loss due to fracture or surgical debridement is a current problem in orthopedic trauma surgery. Bone fractures are the most widespread trauma in humans.

Abstract
Large segmental bone defects represent a clinical challenge for which current treatment procedures have many drawbacks. 3D-printed scaffolds may help to support healing, but their design process relies mainly on trial and error due to a lack of understanding of which scaffold features support bone regeneration. The aim of this study was to investigate whether existing mechano-biological rules of bone regeneration can also explain scaffold-supported bone defect healing. In addition, we examined the distinct roles of bone grafting and scaffold structure on the regeneration process. To that end, scaffold-surface guided migration and tissue deposition as well as bone graft stimulatory effects were included in an in silico model and predictions were compared to in vivo data. We found graft osteoconductive properties and scaffold-surface guided extracellular matrix deposition to be essential features driving bone defect filling in a 3D-printed honeycomb titanium structure. This knowledge paves the way for the design of more effective 3D scaffold structures and their pre-clinical optimization, prior to their application in scaffold-based bone defect regeneration.

Abstract
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous platelet concentrate prepared from the whole blood that is activated to release growth factors (GFs) and cytokines and has been shown to have the potential capacity to reduce inflammation and improve tissue anabolism for regeneration. The use of PRP provides a potential for repair due to its abundant GFs and cytokines, which are key in initiating and modulating regenerative microenvironments for soft and hard tissues. Among outpatients, orthopedic injuries are common and include bone defects, ligament injury, enthesopathy, musculoskeletal injury, peripheral nerve injury, chronic nonhealing wounds, articular cartilage lesions, and osteoarthritis, which are caused by trauma, sport-related or other types of trauma, or tumor resection. Surgical intervention is often required to treat these injuries. However, for numerous reasons regarding limited regeneration capacity and insufficient blood supply of the defect region, these treatments commonly result in unsatisfactory outcomes, and follow-up treatment is challenging. The aim of the present review is to explore future research in the field of PRP therapy in the treatment of diseases associated with orthopedic injuries. Impact statement In recent years, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has become widely used in the treatment of diseases associated with orthopedic injuries, and the results of numerous studies are encouraging. Due to diseases associated with orthopedic injuries being common in clinics, as a conservative treatment, more and more doctors and patients are more likely to accept PRP. Importantly, PRP is a biological product of autologous blood that is obtained by a centrifugation procedure to enrich platelets from whole blood, resulting in few complications, such as negligible immunogenicity from an autologous source, and it is also simple to produce through an efficient and cost-effective method in a sterile environment. However, the applicability, advantages, and disadvantages of PRP therapy have not yet been fully elucidated. The aim of the present review is to explore future research in the field of PRP therapy in the treatment of diseases associated with orthopedic injuries, as well as to provide references for clinics.

[PMID: 32929906 PMCID: PMC8171733 DOI: 10.7507/1002-1892.202002028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2020] [Revised: 06/11/2020] [Indexed: 11/03/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the effectiveness of percutaneous injection of autologous concentrated bone marrow aspirate (cBMA) combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in the treatment of delayed fracture healing. METHODS A prospective, randomized, controlled, single-blind case study was conducted. Between March 2016 and July 2018, 66 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria for delayed fracture healing but had solid internal fixation of the fracture end were randomly divided into control group (31 cases, treated with percutaneous autogenous bone marrow blood injection) and study group (35 cases, treated with percutaneous autogenous cBMA+PRP injection). General data such as gender, age, body mass index, site of delayed fracture healing, length of bone defect at fracture end, and preoperative radiographic union score for tibia (RUST) showed no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). Before injection, Kirschner wire was used in both groups to stimulate the fracture end and cause minor injury. The fracture healing time, treatment cost, and adverse reactions were recorded and compared between the two groups. Visual analogue scale (VAS) score was used to evaluate pain improvement. The tibial RUST score was extended to the tubular bone healing evaluation. RESULTS No infection of bone marrow puncture needle eyes occurred in both groups. In the control group, local swelling was obvious in 5 cases and pain was aggravated at 1 day after operation in 11 cases. In the study group, postoperative swelling and pain were not obvious, but 2 cases presented local swelling and pain. All of them relieved after symptomatic treatment. Patients in both groups were followed up, the follow-up time of the control group was 16-36 months (mean, 21.8 months), and the study group lasted 14-33 months (mean, 23.2 months). The amount of bone marrow blood was significantly lower in the study group than in the control group ( t=4.610, P=0.000). The degree of postoperative pain in the study group was less than that in the control group, and the treatment cost was higher than that in the control group. But the differences between the two groups in VAS score at 1 day after operation and treatment cost were not significant ( P>0.05). Fracture healing was achieved in 19 cases (61.3%) in the control group and 30 cases (85.7%) in the study group. The difference in fracture healing rate between the two groups was significant ( χ 2=5.128, P=0.024). Fracture healing time and RUST score at last follow-up were significantly better in the study group than in the control group ( P<0.05). At last follow-up, RUST scores in both groups were significantly improved when compared with those before operation ( P<0.05). CONCLUSION Autogenous cBMA combined with PRP percutaneous injection can provide high concentration of BMSCs and growth factors, and can improve the fracture healing rate and shorten the fracture healing time better than autogenous bone marrow blood injection.

Abstract
Approx. every third hospitalized patient in Europe suffers from musculoskeletal injuries or diseases. Up to 20% of these patients need costly surgical revisions after delayed or impaired fracture healing. Reasons for this are the severity of the trauma, individual factors, e.g, the patients’ age, individual lifestyle, chronic diseases, medication, and, over 70 diseases that negatively affect the bone quality. To investigate the various disease constellations and/or develop new treatment strategies, many in vivo, ex vivo, and in vitro models can be applied. Analyzing these various models more closely, it is obvious that many of them have limits and/or restrictions. Undoubtedly, in vivo models most completely represent the biological situation. Besides possible species-specific differences, ethical concerns may question the use of in vivo models especially for large screening approaches. Challenging whether ex vivo or in vitro bone models can be used as an adequate replacement for such screenings, we here summarize the advantages and challenges of frequently used ex vivo and in vitro bone models to study disturbed bone metabolism and fracture healing. Using own examples, we discuss the common challenge of cell-specific normalization of data obtained from more complex in vitro models as one example of the analytical limits which lower the full potential of these complex model systems.

Abstract
Approximately 10-15% of fracture patients suffer impaired healing, which is either delayed or even results in non-union. We performed a Systematic Review, aiming to examine the types and frequency of specific genetic abnormalities in patients experiencing bone fracture and to ascertain whether a genetic association exists regarding the tendency for some patients to suffer fracture non-union or postoperative non-union events. GO and KEGG analyses were used to identify the likely function of the genes involved. Furthermore, we evaluated the functional significance of single nucleotide polymorphisms using RegulomeDB and GTEx. Seven eligible studies involving 29 genes and 89 SNPs were analyzed in this review. We found that the polymorphisms in gene NOS2, NOG, BMP4, CYR61, IL1β and FGFR1 apparently predisposed patients to fracture non-union, while the polymorphisms in gene MMP13, BMP6 and FAM5C appeared to provide protection from non-union. Bioinformatics analysis suggested that these genes were enriched in inflammatory pathways, suggesting that inflammation may be a potential factor involved in fracture non-union. Three SNPs (rs17563, rs3753793 and rs2853550) had smaller RegulomeDB scores, indicating significant biological function. In conclusion, we have identified a number of genes and their polymorphisms that might contribute to a genetic susceptibility to fracture non-union. Further studies with larger cohorts will enhance our understanding of fracture non-union and may inform and direct early interventions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effectiveness of the treatment under the guidance of "diamond concept" for femoral shaft fractures nonunion after intramedullary fixation. METHODS Between January 2014 and December 2016, 21 cases of femoral shaft fractures nonunion after intramedullary fixation were treated with auxiliary plate fixation combined with autogenous iliac graft, and autologous bone marrow concentrate and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) gel under the guidance of the "diamond concept". There were 13 males and 8 females, with an average age of 32.5 years (range, 17-48 years). All fractures were closed femoral shaft fractures. Four patients underwent internal fixation with plate and resulted in nonunion, then they were fixed with intramedullary nails, but did not heal either. The rest 17 patients were fixed with intramedullary nailing. Fracture nonunion classification: 4 cases of hypertrophic nonunion, 17 cases of atrophic nonunion; the length of bone defect was 1-3 mm; the duration from the last treatment to the current treatment was 10-23 months (mean, 14.3 months). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, the time between operation and full loading, fracture healing time, and complications were recorded. The visual analogue scale (VAS) score and the imaging system of fracture healing of the extremities (RUST) of patients before operation and at last follow-up were recorded to evaluate the fracture healing; the function of the affected limb was evaluated according to the Schatzker-Lambert efficacy score standard at last follow-up. RESULTS The operation time was 105-160 minutes, with an average of 125.6 minutes; the intraoperative blood loss was 160-580 mL, with an average of 370.5 mL. All incisions healed by first intention, without vascular or nerve injury. All patients were followed up 22-46 months (mean, 26.5 months). All the fractures healed, with a fracture healing time of 3-7 months (mean, 4.8 months). During the follow-up, there was no infection, loosening, implant breakage, re-fracture, and other complications. The VAS score at last follow-up was 0.8±0.3, showing significant difference ( t=7.235, P=0.000) when compared with preoperative score (5.2±3.7); the RUST score was 3.4±0.3, which was significantly higher than the preoperative score (1.5±0.7) ( t=8.336, P=0.000). According to the Schatzker-Lambert effectiveness evaluation standard, the limb function was excellent in 16 cases, good in 4 cases, fair in 1 case, and the excellent and good rate was 95.42%. CONCLUSION Nonunion after intramedullary fixation of femoral fracture treated with auxiliary plate combined with autogenous iliac graft, autogenous bone marrow concentration and PRP gel in accordance with the "diamond concept" can not only restore the stability of the fracture ends, but also improves the biological environment of the fracture site, and can improve the rate of fracture healing.
