Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on BMP-6 expression during mandibular distraction osteogenesis. Methods Twenty-five mature rabbits were randomly divided into five groups. Mandibular osteoto?mies were performed corticectomy in bilateral mandibles of rabbits. PRF was implanted in the one side of mandibles, which was used as experimental group. Another side of madibular was used as control group. Rabbits were sacrificed and the dis?tracted calluses were harvested and processed for HE and BMP-6 immunohistochemistry staining at 1, 3, 7, 14 and 28 days after the end of distraction, respectively. The expressions of BMP-6 in the distracted calluses were analyzed by cell digital imaging software. Results The regenerated bone was found in the distraction gap after mandibular lengthening. Expres?sions of BMP-6 were co-localized in cytoplasm of osteoblasts and newly embedded osteocytes. Compared with control group, the positive cell rate and positive area percentage of BMP-6 were significantly higher on the 1st, 3th and 7th day after the distraction in experimental group (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in positive cell rate and positive area per?centage of BMP-6 at 14-day and 28-day after the distraction between experimental group and control group. Conclusion PRF can accelerate bone formation of mandibular distraction osteogenesis in rabbits. BMP-6 may play important role at the early stage of mandibular distraction.
