Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Demineralized bone can be used as the scaffolds of osteoblasts,and body tissue developed immunologic rejection to demineralized bone.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the histological changes of cyclosporin A(CSA) effect on ossification of demineralized bone,in addition,to explore the feasibility of demineralized bone served as ideal available bone substitute material.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:The randomized control experiment of animals was performed at the Experimental Center of Second Hospital of Dalian Medical University between March 2007 and April 2008.MATERIALS:Sixteen New Zealand rabbits were divided into the control and experimental group of homogenic decalcified bone,control and experimental group of heterogenous decalcified bone.CSA was produced by Beijing Novartis Pharmaceutical Co.,Ltd.METHODS:Decalcified bone prepared from rabbits was served as homogenic decalcified bone,and decalcified bone prepared from dogs were served as heterogenous decalcified bone.Sixteen rabbits were randomly divided into 4 groups:the control and experimental group of homogenic decalcified bone,control and experimental group of heterogenous decalcified bone,with 4 rabbits in each group.Each rabbit was implanted with homogenic or heterogenous decalcified bone,respectively,2 samples per side.2 mg/kg CSA or 2 mg/kg placebo was intramuscular injected in the experimental or control groups for 4 weeks.Samples were examined by hematoxylin-eosin staining and light microscope.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:The histological observation of decalcified bone in each group.RESULTS:Homogenic allogeneic bone induced formation in all implants.CSA did not induce morphological changes of homogenic allogeneic bone.In the heterogenous decalcified bone treated group,at 4 weeks,there was no bone formation or chondrocytes production in the control group,but there was cartilage and bone formation in the experimental group.CONCLUSION:CSA did not alter the morphology of bone induction by homogenic allogeneic bone.Immunologic reactions may inhibit bone induction by heterogenous decalcified bone,which can be counteracted by treatment with CSA.CSA can increase the rate of nonunion or bone defect using heterogenous decalcified bone.
