Abstract
The aim of this study was to develop a new cell transplantation technique for osteoanagenesis at bone defect sites. Polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC) film was evaluated because of its good biocompatibility and flexibility. We used this film as both a cell scaffold and a barrier membrane. Initially, the cell compatibility of the PVDC film for fibroblast-like cells and osteoblast-like cells was confirmed. Subsequently, bone marrow cells were obtained from rats and cultured on PVDC films in two kinds of medium. The PVDC films with bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were then applied to critical-sized bone defects in the calvarial bone of rats. After the transplantation, the surgical sites were dissected out and evaluated by soft X-ray radiography, micro-CT analysis and histological examinations. The bone marrow-derived MSC-transplanted rats showed greater bone regeneration than the control rats. Therefore, PVDC film is considered to be useful as a scaffold for bone regeneration.
