The use of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 has been officially approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration only for single level anterior lumbar interbody fusion, nevertheless it is widely used by many surgeons with off-label indications. Despite advantages in bone formation, its use still remains a controversial issue and several complications have been described by authors who oppose their wide use.展开更多

Methods: The new type of composite xenogeneic bone was obtained by combining the chemically treated cance1lous bone with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2). It was implanted on the bone defect of rabbit. Results: There was a large amount of new bone formation within the combined material and the amount was increasing as the time elapsed. In contrast, there was a lot of fibrous tissue with a little new bone formed on the area of the bone defect when the treated cancellous bone was implanted alone. Conclusion: The results imply that the rhBMP-2 plays a very important role in new bone formation and the composite xenogeneic bone appear to be an ideal material for repair of bone defect.展开更多

Following implantation of the composite into the muscle pouches of mice, cartilage growth was induced in the pores or on the surface of the implants at one week, woven bone at three week and lamellar bone with bone marrow at six week, and coral was absorbed partially. The induced formation of endochondral bone was time-related and rhBMP-2 dose-related. The results of this study indicate that the composite possesses a superior ability of osteogenesis, and coral acts as one of the most suitable rhBMP-2 slowrelease carriers currently available. The composite will be a new type of bone substitute to be used in orthopaedics and maxillofacial surgery.展开更多

Methods: TheDNA fragment encoding the mature peptide of human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (hBMP-2m) was inserted into expression vectorpDH in which foreign gene was controlled by PRPL promoters. E. coli DH5a transformed with recombinant plasmid pDHB2m wasinduced at 42℃to express the target protein. The expressed product was partially purified and refolded, and then implanted intorat thigh muscles to assay its bone inductive activity. Results: After induction, a protein band on SDS-PAGE gel with an apparentmol. wt. of 13kD was observed to anticipate in the strain carrying pDHB2m, but not in the control. The expressed hBMP-2m accounted for 45%-60% of the total bacterial protein. The expressed product existed in a form of inclusion body. After partially purified and refolded, rhBMP-2m could induce the formation of cartilage and bone tissue heterotopically. Conclusion: The maturepeptide of human bone morphogenetic protein-2 has ben successfully expressed in E. coli and the product has ectopic bone inductive activity.展开更多

Mandibular defects were created in 48 New Zealand Rabbits, and then randomly divided into 4 groups, which was grafted in the mandibular defects with AXCB, AXCB soaked with rhBMP-2, autograft bone, or blank. Equal number of animals from each group was classified into three time points (4, 8, and 12 weeks) after operation for gross pathological observation, hematoxylin and eosin (H & E) staining, radiographic examination, and bone density measurement. H & E staining revealed that the area percentage of bone regeneration in the group of AXCB/rhBMP-2 graft was 27.72 ± 4.68, 53.90 ± 21.92, and 77.35 ± 9.83 when at 4, 8, and 12 weeks, which was better than that of auto bone graft, prompting that the group of AXCB/rhBMP-2 graft had commendable osteogenic effect. And comparing with the AXCB without rhBMP-2, of which the area percentage of bone regeneration was only 14.03 ± 5.02, 28.49 ± 11.35, and 53.90 ± 21.92, the osteogenic effect of AXCB/rhBMP-2 graft was demonstrated to be much better. In the group of AXCB/rhBMP-2 graft, the area percentage of bone regeneration increased, and the implanted materials were gradually degraded and replaced by autogenous bone regeneration over time. We concluded that antigen-extracted xenogeneic cancellous bone (AXCB) graft soaked with rhBMP-2 had shown excellent osteogenic effect in repair of bone defects, with good biocompability.展开更多
