  • COMPARATIVE STUDY ON REPAIRING RABBIT RADIUS SEGMENTAL DEFECTS WITH TWO DIFFERENT PROPORTIONS OF CHITOSAN COMBINED WITH ALLOGENEIC MORSELIZED BONE

    Objective To give a prel iminary experimental evidence and to prove chitosan and allogeneic morsel ized bone as potential bone substitutions in repairing rabbit radius segmental defect. Methods Chitosan and allogeneic morsel ized bone were mixed with various ratios (1 ∶ 5, 1 ∶ 10, 1 ∶ 25, 1 ∶ 50, and 1 ∶ 100). After preparation, the physicaland chemical properties of the composites were prel iminary detected; the composites at the ratios of 1 ∶ 50 and 1 ∶ 25 had good physical and chemical properties and were used for the animal experiment. The radius segmental defects of 15 mm in length were made in 50 adult New Zealand white rabbits (weighing 2.5-3.0 kg), then the animals were divided into 2 groups. In groups A and B, chitosan/allogeneic morsel ized bone composites were implanted at the ratio of 1 ∶ 50 and 1 ∶ 25, respectively. After 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks of operation, the gross, histological, immunohistochemical observations were performed. Before the rabbits were sacrified, X-ray films were taken; the serum calcium and alkal ine phosphatase (ALP) concentration were measured; and the biomechanical measurement was carried out at 12 weeks. Results The results of gross observation were essentially consistent with those of the X-ray films. The histological observation showed that the bone formation was earl ier in group A than in group B; the amount of new bone formation in group A was more than that in group B; and the bone forming area in group A was bigger than that in group B (P lt; 0.05) at 4 and 8 weeks after operation. The immunohistochemical staining showed that vascular endothel ial growth factor and insul in-l ike growth factor receptor II proteins expressed in the cytoplasm of 2 groups after 4 and 8 weeks, and the expression in group A was higher than that in group B (P lt; 0.05). There was no significant difference in the serum calcium concentration between 2 groups at each time point (P gt; 0.05). After 4 and 8 weeks, the ALP concentration in group A was significantly higher than that in group B (P lt; 0.05). After 12 weeks, the radius maximum bending loads of groups A and B were (299.75 ± 27.69) N and (278.54 ± 17.09) N, respectively, showing significant difference (t=4.045,P=0.002). Conclusion The composite of chitosan and allogeneic morsel ized bone has good osteogeneic activity and can beused as a bone tissue engineering scaffold, and the optimum ratio of chitosan to allogeneic morsel ized bone was 1 ∶ 50.

  • IMMUNOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION OF REPAIR OF ARTICULAR CARTILAGE DEFECTS WITH ALLOGENEIC CHONDROCYTES IN PORCINS

    Objective To evaluate the immunological reaction and the outcome of allogeneic chondrocyte transplantation in repairing articular cartilage defects in porcins. Methods Full articular cartilage from the knee of two Shanghai white porcins about one-month-old was removed and cut mechanically, digested by 0.25% trypsin and 0.2% type Ⅱ collagenase and cultured in 10% DMEM medium. Defects of 0.5 cm×0.5 cm involving the subchodral bone were created in both the left and right femur condyloid in 8 two-month-old Yunnai bama porcins. Allogeneic chondrocyte transplantation were implanted in defects at a density of (1.0-2.0)×106,0.2 ml. The lymphocytes from the receivers’ blood were collected before transplantation and after 3, 5, 7 and 12 weeks of transplantation, then mixed with allogeneic chondrocytes to determin the lymphocyte stimulation index(SI) in vitro. The histological observation in vivo was made after 5, 7 and 24 weeks of transplantation. Results Lymphocyte SI at 3, 5, 7 and 12 weeks(1.457±0.062,1.739±0.142,1.548±0.047,1.216±0.028) after transplantation was higher than that before transplantation(1.102±0.034,Plt;0.05). SI began to increase in the 3rd week and reached the peak value in the 5th week, then gradually declined at the 7th and 12th weeks, showing significant differences when compared with in the 5th week (Plt;0.05). Inflammation and lymphocytes infiltration could be seen in subchondral bone and the intergration area between repair tissue and normal cartilage in the 5th week, and then decreased and limited in subchondral bone in the 7th week. Defects were filled with cartilage tissue, which had good intergration with subchondral bone at 24 weeks after transplantation. Conclusion Immunological reactions can be found at early stage of allogeneic chondrocyte transplantation and then decreased with the time, the fullthickness articular cartilage defects could be repaired mainlywith hyaline cartilage by the allogeneic chondrocyte transplantation. This may provide a new method to repair articular cartilage defects clinically.

  • EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON ADHESIVENESS OF OSTEOBLASTS AND VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL CELLS FROM RAT BMSCs CO-CULTURED ON ALLOGENEIC FREEZE-DRIED PARTIALLY BONE IN VITRO.

    Objective To investigate the adhesiveness of osteoblasts and vascular endothel ial cells from rat BMSCs co-cultured on allogeneic freeze-dried partially bone in vitro. Methods The BMSCs were isolated from 4-week-old SD rats (weighing 100-110 g) and cultured in vitro. The third generation of BMSCs were induced into osteoblasts and vascular endothel ial cells. The osteoblasts and vascular endothel ial cells after being induced for 7 days in a ratio of 1 to 1 were directlyco-cultured (experimental group), while the second generation of uninduced BMSCs was used as a control (control group). The growth and prol iferation abil ity were analyzed by MTT examination and the growth curve was drawn at 1-8 days. The osteoblasts and vascular endothel ial cells after being induced for 14 days were implanted in the allogeneic freeze-dried partially bone coated by 20% Col I or not at different densities (0.25 × 106/mL、0.50 × 106/mL、1.00 × 106/mL、2.00 × 106/mL、4.00 × 106/mL), as modified group and unmodified group, the cell adherence rate was calculated after 24 hours. These two kinds of cells were implanted in the pre-disposal treated allogeneic freeze-dried partially bone and observed by scanning electron microscope. Results ALP staining of osteoblasts showed that there were blue grains in cytoplasm at 7 days. CD31 and CD34 immunocytochemical staining of vascular endothelial cell showed that there were positive signals in the cytoplasm at 14 days. The MTT test showed that the prol iferation level of the experimental group was lower than those of the control group. There were significant differences in absorbance value between two group from 3 days to 8 days (P lt; 0.05). The cell adherence rate increased with increasing seeding density when the seeding density was (0.25-1.00) × 106/mL. The cell adherence rate reached the peak when the seeding density was 1.00 × 106/mL. The cell adherence rate decreased when the seeding density was more than 2.00 × 106/mL. There were significant differences in cell adherence rate between modified group and unmodified group at different seeding densities (P lt; 0.05). The prol iferation of the osteoblasts and endothel ial cells presented better growth and histocompatibil ity under scanning electron microscope. Conclusion The growing behavior of two kinds of cells is good in the allogeneic freezedried partially bone coated by 20% Col I , which can be used in reconstrction of vascularized tissue engineered bone.

  • STUDY ON THE APPLICATION OF ALLOGENEIC BONE TRANSPLANTATION

    Objective To explore the clinical application of allogeneic bone transplantation. Methods Related literatures on clinical application of various allograft bone materials of the past 5 years were extensively reviewed. Results The allografts could be processed into various kinds of transplanting materials, such as small blocks, large segments, morselised or granular material, and bone ring, so that they could be applied to bone defect filling, prosthesis revision, limb preservation after tumor resection, and joint fusion. All these applications ended up with good clinical results. However, complications resulted in thestructural transplantation of large block bones could be overlooked. Conclusion The main advantage of bone allograft is that it can be integrated with host bone and be remodelled, so as to reconstruct bone structure and function. How to accelerate their integration and remodelling while exerting normal functions is the problem that requires solution.

    Objective Tri ptol ide can suppress immunological rejection reaction. To investigate the effect of tri ptol ide on allogenic tendon transplantation in repairing tendon defect in chicken. Methods The defect model of the third toes tendon was establ ished in 64 healthy-cleaning male Leghorn chickens (4-month-old, weighing 1.9-2.3 kg), which underwent allogenic tendon transplantation for repairing and were divided into 2 groups randomly (n=32). Tri ptol ide feeding[100 μg/(kg·d)] was given for 3 weeks in the experimental group and normal feeding in the control group. General condition of the chickens was observed after operation. The transplanted tendons were harvested from 4 chickens in each group for gross observation at 1, 2, 3, and 4 weeks after operation; the histological observation was performed at 1 and 3 weeks, and transmission electron microscope observation at 2 and 4 weeks. The blood and tendon were harvested from another 8 chickens in each group for flow cytometry and biomechanical tests respectively at 3 and 6 weeks. Results All chickens survived to the experiment end. Gross observation: with time extending, hyperemia and edema around transplanted tendon were rel ieved. Rarefaction adhering zone was seen in experimental group, and pyknotic adhering zone in control group. Histological observation: inflammatory reaction in experimental group was sl ighter than that in control group at 1 and 3 weeks. Transmission electron microscope observation: at 2 and 4 weeks, fibroblasts had big cell nucleus, more euchromatin, and l ittle heterochromatin in experimental group; however, there were small amount of rough endocytoplasmic reticulums with gentle expanded capsular space in control group, which contained sparse content. Flow cytometry test: at 3 and 6 weeks, peri pheral blood contained less CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes in experimental group than in control group, and the ratio of CD4+ to CD8+ T lymphocyte significantly decreased in experimental group when compared with control group (P lt; 0.05). Biomechanical examination: at 3and 6 weeks, the maximum tensile strength in experimental group was bigger than that in control group, and tensile adhesion power in experimental group was smaller than that in control group. There were significant differences in the indexes between 2 groups (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion Tri ptol ide can suppress immunological rejection reaction, strengthen tendon healing strength, and reduce tendon adhesion in allogenic tendon transplantation.

    Objective To investigate the effectiveness of meniscal allograft in treatment of discoid meniscus tear. Methods Between May 2005 and September 2009, 7 cases of discoid meniscus tear were treated with meniscal allograft. There were 2 males and 5 females with an average age of 22.6 years (range, 18-33 years). The locations were the left knee in 5cases and the right knee in 2 cases. The causes were sport trauma in 4 cases, impact injury in 2 cases, and no apparent reason in 1 case. Of them, 7 cases had joint tenderness gap, 2 cases had positive results in floating patella test, 7 cases had positive results in McMurray test, and 6 cases had positive results in squatting test. The range of knee motion was 0-60°. The disease duration ranged from 3 months to 17 years (median, 26 months). Results The number of the pins was 9-13 (mean, 11). The operative time ranged from 1.5 to 2.7 hours (mean, 1.7 hours). The postoperative fever time ranged from 31 to 57 hours (mean, 46.4 hours). Incisions healed by first intention in 6 cases; infection occurred in 1 case after operation and was cured after 18 days of local irrigation with antibiotic sal ine. Seven patients were followed up 21.6 months on average (range, 12-53 months). The range of knee motion was 0-125°. All patients had the negative results of floating patella test, McMurray test, and squatting test. MRI showed that there was a good heal ing between the transplanted meniscus and the surrounding synovium. The Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score was 80.71 ± 4.82 at 6 months after operation, showing significant difference (t=10.11, P=0.00) when compared with the score (41.71 ± 8.07) before operation. Conclusion Meniscal allograft in treatment of discoid meniscus tear is a rel iable and effective method, which can ease knee pain.
