Abstract
OBJECTIVE Pigs are emerging as a preferred experimental in vivo model for bone regeneration. The study objective was to answer the focused PEO question: in the pig model (P), what is the capacity of experimental alveolar bone defects (E) for spontaneous regeneration in terms of new bone formation (O)? METHODS Following PRISMA guidelines, electronic databases were searched for studies reporting experimental bone defects or extraction socket healing in the maxillae or mandibles of pigs. The main inclusion criteria were the presence of a control group of untreated defects/sockets and the assessment of regeneration via 3D tomography [radiographic defect fill (RDF)] or 2D histomorphometry [new bone formation (NBF)]. Random effects meta-analyses were performed for the outcomes RDF and NBF. RESULTS Overall, 45 studies were included reporting on alveolar bone defects or extraction sockets, most frequently in the mandibles of minipigs. Based on morphology, defects were broadly classified as 'box-defects' (BD) or 'cylinder-defects' (CD) with a wide range of healing times (10 days to 52 weeks). Meta-analyses revealed pooled estimates (with 95% confidence intervals) of 50% RDF (36.87%-63.15%) and 43.74% NBF (30.47%-57%) in BD, and 44% RDF (16.48%-71.61%) and 39.67% NBF (31.53%-47.81%) in CD, which were similar to estimates of socket-healing [48.74% RDF (40.35%-57.13%) and 38.73% NBF (28.57%-48.89%)]. Heterogeneity in the meta-analysis was high (I2 > 90%). CONCLUSION A substantial body of literature revealed a high capacity for spontaneous regeneration in experimental alveolar bone defects of (mini)pigs, which should be considered in future studies of bone regeneration in this animal model.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Surgical endodontics (hemisection) commonly involves the alveolar bone socket and the periradicular tissue. In today's era, optimizing the bone healing process is updated by using bone graft induction. This study explores the mechanisms of bone healing of the alveolar bone socket post-dental extraction of Wistar rats after administration of a bovine tooth graft (hydroxyapatite bovine tooth graft [HAp-BTG]). MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty Wistar rats were randomly selected into two groups, control and treatment, and into five subgroups on days 3, 7, 14, 21, and 28. The postextraction socket was filled with polyethylene glycol (PEG) as the control and PEG + HAp-BTG as the treatment group. On days 3, 7, 14, 21, and 28, Wistar rats were sacrificed, mandibles were taken, paraffin blocks were made, cut 4 µm thick, and made into glass preparations for microscopic examination. The variable analysis was performed by staining hematoxylin-eosin for osteoblasts (OBs) and osteoclasts (OCs) and immunohistochemistry for runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), osterix (OSX), osteocalcin (OCN), bone morphogenic protein (BMP) 2. We analyzed the expressed cell count per microscope field. RESULTS In general, the number of cell expressions in the treatment group was significantly higher and faster, except for significantly lower OC. The high variables peak occurred on day 14 for RUNX2 and OCN, on day 7 for OSX, while OB significantly increased on day 21 and remained until day 28. The decrease of OC cells occurred on day 7 and remained low until 28 days. BMP2 was first dominantly induced by HAp-BTG, then the others. CONCLUSION HAp-BTG can induce higher and faster bone healing biomarkers. BMP2 is the dominant first impacted. On the 28th day, it did not significantly express the suppression of OC by OB, which entered the bone formation and remodeling step.

A combined cell and growth factor delivery for the repair of a critical size tibia defect using biodegradable hydrogel implants. J Tissue Eng Regen Med 2022; 16:380-395. [PMID: 35119200 PMCID: PMC9303443 DOI: 10.1002/term.3285] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2021] [Revised: 12/09/2021] [Accepted: 01/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
The ability to repair critical‐sized long‐bone injuries using growth factor and cell delivery was investigated using hydrogel biomaterials. Physiological doses of the recombinant human bone morphogenic protein‐2 (rhBMP2) were delivered in a sustained manner from a biodegradable hydrogel containing peripheral human blood‐derived endothelial progenitor cells (hEPCs). The biodegradable implants made from polyethylene glycol (PEG) and denatured fibrinogen (PEG‐fibrinogen, PF) were loaded with 7.7 μg/ml of rhBMP2 and 2.5 × 106 cells/ml hEPCs. The safety and efficacy of the implant were tested in a rodent model of a critical‐size long‐bone defect. The hydrogel implants were formed ex‐situ and placed into defects in the tibia of athymic nude rats and analyzed for bone repair after 13 weeks following surgery. The hydrogels containing a combination of 7.7 μg/ml of rhBMP2 and 2.5 × 106 cells/ml hEPCs were compared to control hydrogels containing 7.7 μg/ml of rhBMP2 only, 2.5 × 106 cells/ml hEPCs only, or bare hydrogels. Assessments of bone repair include histological analysis, bone formation at the site of implantation using quantitative microCT, and assessment of implant degradation. New bone formation was detected in all treated animals, with the highest amounts found in the treatments that included animals that combined the PF implant with rhBMP2. Moreover, statistically significant increases in the tissue mineral density (TMD), trabecular number and trabecular thickness were observed in defects treated with rhBMP2 compared to non‐rhBMP2 defects. New bone formation was significantly higher in the hEPC‐treated defects compared to bare hydrogel defects, but there were no significant differences in new bone formation, trabecular number, trabecular thickness or TMD at 13 weeks when comparing the rhBMP2 + hEPCs‐treated defects to rhBMP2‐treated defects. The study concludes that the bone regeneration using hydrogel implants containing hEPCs are overshadowed by enhanced osteogenesis associated with sustained delivery of rhBMP2.

The effect of polyethylenglycol gel on the delivery and osteogenic differentiation of homologous tooth germ-derived stem cells in a porcine model. Clin Oral Investig 2020; 25:3043-3057. [PMID: 33104929 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-020-03625-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2020] [Accepted: 10/07/2020] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate if bone regeneration can be promoted by homologous transplantation of STRO-1 sorted (STRO-1+) porcine tooth germ mesenchymal stem cells (TGSCs) with the combination of polyethylenglycol (PEG)-based hydrogel and biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) scaffolds. MATERIAL AND METHODS TGSCs were isolated from impacted third molars of domestic pigs. Nine critical-sized defects were created as (1) untreated defect; filled with (2) autogenous bone; (3) BCP + PEG; (4) BCP + PEG + unsorted TGSCs; (5) BCP + unsorted TGSCs; (6) BCP + PEG + STRO-1-sorted TGSCs; (7) BCP + STRO-1-sorted TGSCs; (8) BCP + PEG + osteogenic induced unsorted TGSCs; and (9) BCP + PEG + osteogenic induced STRO-1-sorted TGSCs in 20 domestic pigs. CM-DiI labelling was used to track cells in vivo. Histomorphometric assessment of new bone formation was achieved by toluidine blue O staining and microradiography after 1, 2, 4 and 12 weeks posttransplantation. RESULTS Complete healing was achieved in all defects although defects with PEG hydrogel presented better bone formation while STRO-1+ and unsorted TGSCs showed similar ability to form new bone after 12 weeks. Transplanted cells were seen in defects where PEG hydrogel was used as carriers in contrast to defects treated with cells and only bone grafts. CONCLUSIONS PEG hydrogel is an efficient carrier for homologous stem cell transplantation. TGSCs are capable of promoting bone healing in critical-sized defects in combination with bone graft and PEG hydrogel. CLINICAL RELEVANCE This study provides information about the importance of the delivery vehicle for future translational stem cell delivery approaches.

Abstract
Growth factor delivery using acellular matrices presents a promising alternative to current treatment options for bone repair in critical-size injuries. However, supra-physiological doses of the factors can introduce safety concerns that must be alleviated, mainly by sustaining delivery of smaller doses using the matrix as a depot. We developed an acellular, biodegradable hydrogel implant composed of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and denatured albumin to be used for sustained delivery of bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP2). In this study, poly(ethylene glycol)-albumin (PEG-Alb) hydrogels were produced and loaded with 7.7 μg/mL of recombinant human BMP2 (rhBMP2) to be tested for safety and performance in a critical-size long-bone defect, using a rodent model. The hydrogels were formed ex situ in a 5 mm long cylindrical mold of 3 mm diameter, implanted into defects made in the tibia of Sprague-Dawley rats and compared to non-rhBMP2 control hydrogels at 13 weeks following surgery. The hydrogels were also compared to the more established PEG-fibrinogen (PEG-Fib) hydrogels we have tested previously. Comprehensive in vitro characterization as well as in vivo assessments that include: histological analyses, including safety parameters (i.e., local tolerance and toxicity), assessment of implant degradation, bone formation, as well as repair tissue density using quantitative microCT analysis were performed. The in vitro assessments demonstrated similarities between the mechanical and release properties of the PEG-Alb hydrogels to those of the PEG-Fib hydrogels. Safety analysis presented good local tolerance in the bone defects and no signs of toxicity. A significantly larger amount of bone was detected at 13 weeks in the rhBMP2-treated defects as compared to non-rhBMP2 defects. However, no significant differences were noted in bone formation at 13 weeks when comparing the PEG-Alb-treated defects to PEG-Fib-treated defects (with or without BMP2). The study concludes that hydrogel scaffolds made from PEG-Alb containing 7.7 μg/mL of rhBMP2 are effective in accelerating the bridging of boney defects in the tibia.

Abstract
Bone is a plastic tissue with a large healing capability. However, extensive bone loss due to disease or trauma requires extreme therapy such as bone grafting or tissue-engineering applications. Presently, bone grafting is the gold standard for bone repair, but presents serious limitations including donor site morbidity, rejection, and limited tissue regeneration. The use of stem cells appears to be a means to overcome such limitations. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) have been the choice thus far for stem cell therapy for bone regeneration. However, adipose-derived stem cells (ASC) have similar immunophenotype, morphology, multilineage potential, and transcriptome compared to BMSC, and both types have demonstrated extensive osteogenic capacity both in vitro and in vivo in several species. The use of scaffolds in combination with stem cells and growth factors provides a valuable tool for guided bone regeneration, especially for complex anatomic defects. Before translation to human medicine, regenerative strategies must be developed in animal models to improve effectiveness and efficiency. The pig presents as a useful model due to similar macro- and microanatomy and favorable logistics of use. This review examines data that provides strong support for the clinical translation of the pig model for bone regeneration.
