Abstract:
Objective To evaluate effectiveness of bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs) transduced by adenovirus mediated human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (Adv-hBMP-2) gene in the repair of diaphysic segmental bone defects of goats. Methods The tibial bone defects (2.1 cm) of 22 goats, who weighted from 18.1 kg to 29.5 kg, were established and divided into 4 groups: groupⅠ, Adv-hBMP-2 transduced BMSCs group (n=8); groupⅡ, adenovirus mediated ?-galactosidase(Adv-?gal)gene transduced BMSCs group (n=6); groupⅢ, non-transduced BMSCs group (n=6); groupⅣ, untreated group (n=2). Roentgenography, histomorphometrical analysis and biomechanical measurement were studied at various times. Results Roentgenography showed more callus in the bone defect site of group Ⅰ. At 24th week after implantation, the healing rates of group Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ, and Ⅳ were 6/7, 1/5, 2/5, and 0/1 respectively. There was statistic significant difference of X-ray grading between groupⅠand groupⅡor Ⅲ. Histomorphometrical analysis showed much more total new trabecular bone area (TBA) of groupⅠthan that of other groups. Biomechanical strength of groupⅠwas superior to that of groupⅡand Ⅲ. Conclusion Adenovirus mediated BMP-2 gene transferred BMSCs can repair segmental bone defect in goat without osteoconductive scaffold.
