Abstract:
Objective To explore the feasibility of building tissue engineered cartilage by bone marrow stromal cells and pbotografting modified copolymers of 3-hydroxybutymte and 3-hydroxyvalerate.Methods Sheep BMSCs were seeded in three-dimensional photografting modified PHBV scaffoids.Twenty-four hours later.composites were cultured with ehondrogenically inductive medium(DMEM)containing TGF-B(10 ng/m1),IGF-1(150 ng/m1)and 20% fetal bovine serum.Three weeks later,the constructs were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and light microscopy with alcian blue,safrine 0 and type Ⅱ collage immunohistochemical staining.GAG contents of constructs were determined by DMB(1,9-dimethylmethylene blue)binding assay at weekly intervals up to 3 weeks.The composites were implanted subcutaneously in sheep abedoml and were evaluated macroscopically and bistologically at 4 weeks postoperatively.Results SEM photograph showed.after one week culture,cell morphology changed from fibroblast-like elongated spindle to the flat rounded like chondrocytes,and the extra cellular matrix also increased obviousl~.Furthmore,with the culture time extension,this change were more evident.HE staining showed that cells filled all the inter-connected pores in the constructs.And more cells were observed in the outer layer of the constructs.ECM(extraeellular matrix)Was strongly positive by Aleian blue,Safrine O staining and type Ⅱ collage immunohistechemical staining.DMB binding assay revealed that the induced BMSCs GAG secretion(1306.7±192.3)wag significantly higher than BMSCs(205.0±26.2)(P<0.001),but it was significantly lower than passage 2 ehondrocytes(1969.2±235.3)(P<0.001).Saltine O and type Ⅱ collage immunohistochemical staining were positive in constructs implanted subcutaneously.Conclusion Tissue engineered cartilage could be obtained using BMSCs and photografting modified PHBV,but there are still gaps physiologically between the constructs and the nature cartilage.
