Abstract:
BACKGROUND:In consideration of skin as the largest organ al over the body and its abundant vessels and vessel plexuses, there would be sufficient adult stem cels for tissue engineering. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the osteogenic potential of dermis-derived bone morphogenetic protein receptor subtype IB (BMPR-IB) positive cels. METHODS:In current study, histochemical analysis was adopted to study the localization and expression of BMPR-IB+ cels in skin. Fresh skin samples were digested into single cel suspension. Then, the surface marker BMPR-IB was used to isolate cel subpopulation by magnetic activated cel sorting from freshly prepared single cel suspension. After that, the osteogenic potential in vitro andin vivo was tested. Alkaline phosphatase staining and alizarin red staining were performed after osteogenic inductionin vitro. The BMPR-IB+ cels were seeded onto coral scaffolds, and the scaffolds were used to repair critical-sized calvarial defects of mice. Histochemical analysis was performed at 6 weeks postoperatively and micro-CT analysis was carried out at 24 weeks postoperatively to evaluate the ability of bone repairment. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:We localized BMPR-IB cels in situ by immunohistochemistry that turned out to be expressed in the reticular layer of dermis and by single cels. Cel subpopulation which expressed BMPR-IB could be sorted by magnetic activated cel sorting. Alkaline phosphatase staining was obviously positive and lots of calcium modules were confirmed by alizarin red staining after osteogenic induction, indicating that BMPR-IB+ cels had the osteogenic potentialin vitro. Histochemical analysis demonstrated that plenty of new bone formation was found in BMPR-IB+ cels group after 6 weeks in vivo. Micro-CT analysis revealed that BMPR-IB+ cels-coral scaffold complex could repair calvarial defects successfuly after 24 weeksin vivo. These results indicated that dermis-derived BMPR-IB+ cels possessed adequate osteogenic potential. Moreover, they might be promising seed cels for bone tissue engineering.
