Additional studies are required to confirm whether THS isa better alternative for smokers to improve delays in bone healing followingfracture.展开更多

Effect of Sr-HAP and HAP on cell growth numbers with thymidine incorporationtest. In order to estimated cytotoxicities of materials,relative cell growth rate (RGR) werecalculated from data and score of cytotoxicties were assaied. Results showed cell growth numbers and rate of 3H-thymidine incorporation in Sr-HAP and HAP groups were the same asthat of blank control group. Values were increased with the increase of co-cultured time.There were no inhibition of cell growth and DNA syntheses in human osteoblast like cells. Accoding to RGR and score of cytotoxicity degree,all values were qurlified with sdandard ofbiomaterials. Results suggested these qurlified with sdandard or biomaterials. Results suggested these apatite ceramics had no obvious cytotoxicities.展开更多

An elastin-like recombinamer (ELR) with a nucleation sequence for hydroxyapatitewas incorporated into films prepared from a collagen-silk fibroin blend carrying microchannel patternsto stimulate anisotropic osteogenesis. SEM and fluorescence microscopy showed the alignment ofadipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and the human osteoblasts (HOBs) on the ridges and in the groovesof microchannel patterned collagen-fibroin-ELR blend films. The Young's modulus and the ultimatetensile strength (UTS) of untreated films were 0.58 ± 0.13 MPa and 0.18 ± 0.05 MPa, respectively. After 28days of cell culture, ADSC seeded film had a Young's modulus of 1.21 ± 0.42 MPa and UTS of0.32 ± 0.15 MPa which were about 3 fold higher than HOB seeded films. The difference in Young'smodulus was statistically significant (p: 0.02). ADSCs attached, proliferated and mineralized better thanthe HOBs. In the light of these results, ADSCs served as a better cell source than HOBs for bone tissueengineering of collagen-fibroin-ELR based constructs used in this study. We have thus shown theenhancement in the tensile mechanical properties of the bone tissue engineered scaffolds by usingADSCs.展开更多
The effect of parathyroid hormone (PTH) (0.01 nM-10 nM) and 17 -estradiol (E2, 1 nmol-10 nM) alone or in combination on 3H thymidine incorporation, alkaline phosphatase and adenylate cyclase activities were investigat...The effect of parathyroid hormone (PTH) (0.01 nM-10 nM) and 17 -estradiol (E2, 1 nmol-10 nM) alone or in combination on 3H thymidine incorporation, alkaline phosphatase and adenylate cyclase activities were investigated in human fetal osteoblasts using serum-free monolayer primary cultures. The results showed that PTH inhibited cell proliferation while E, promoted it. On alkaline phosphatase activity, PTH showed a complex results while E, were slightly inhibitory. PHT-E2 combination suggested that E2 could alter the effect of PTH alone, also potentiated the anabolic and antagonize the catabolic effects of PTH on bone formation.展开更多

The present study separated the osteoblast like cells from human alveolar bone and seeded them into 3 types of biodegradable scaffold to form the complexes and then evaluated their osteogenic activities in vitro, in order to acquire experimental data that are essential to future clinical practice of this new type of therapeutical procedure in oral and maxillofacial surgery. Material and methods: Human alveolar bone origin cells were separated from alveolar bone around the third impacted teeth of 3 patients by enzyme digestion and went on cultures with α MEM containing β glycerophosphate and Dexamethasone at 5% CO2 ,37℃ for 21 28 days. Confirmed osteoblasts like cells were then seeded onto 3 types of degradable biomaterials of polyglycolic acid scaffold, collagen sponge, and L lactic acid/ε caprolactone to form cell matrices complexes. The 3 types of complex were continued to culture for 21 28 days in vitro at the same conditions with the single layer cultured cells. The cell proliferation, morphological changes, ALPase activity and mineral nodules formation on scaffolds were measured and observed at 3 days intervals to evaluate the affinities & the osteogenic activities of the human alveolar osteoblast like cells in the 3 different complexes. Result and discussion: The results indicated that the cultured human alveolar bone origin cells from 3 patients could successfully express the osteoblasts phenotype in single layered culturing in vitro after stimulated by β glycerophosphate and Dexamethasone. It has been shown that the cultured osteoblast like cells seeded on PGAS matrix had the highest attachmental, proliferative and osteogenic activities, suggesting a good bio affinity between the human alveolar osteoblast like cells and the PGAS matrix. The statistical analysis (ANOVA) showed that there were significant differences between PGAS osteoblasts complex and CLGS or LACT complexes on osteogenic activities. (P<0.05). It was also noticed that cultured human alveolar osteoblasts seeded in biodegradable materials had a delayed peak period on cell proliferation and PLAase production ,suggesting the osteoblasts seeded on scaffolds need a period of time to adjust themselves before they can normally proliferate and expres their phenotypes. Conclusion: PGAS osteoblasts complex is worth to be further developed into a tissue engineered cellular artificial bony implant for reconstructing the oral maxillofacial bony defects in a more effective way in the future.展开更多
