Abstract

Currently, functional treatment of fracture non-unions and bone loss remains a significant challenge in the field of orthopaedic surgery. Tissue engineering of bone has emerged as a new treatment alternative in bone repair and regeneration. Our approach is to combine a polymeric matrix with a cellular vehicle for delivery of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), constructed through retroviral gene transfer. The objective of this study is to develop an osteoinductive, tissue-engineered bone replacement system by culturing BMP-2-producing cells on an osteoconductive, biodegradable, polymeric-ceramic matrix. The hypothesis is that retroviral gene transfer can be used effectively in combination with a biodegradable matrix to promote bone formation. First, we examined the in vitro attachment and growth of transfected BMP-producing cells on a PLAGA-HA scaffold. Second, the bioactivity of the produced BMP in vitro was evaluated using a mouse model. It was found that the polymer-ceramic scaffold supported BMP-2 production, allowing the attachment and growth of retroviral transfected, BMP-2-producing cells. In vivo, the scaffold successfully functioned as a delivery vehicle for bioactive BMP-2, as it induced heterotopic bone formation i...Continue Reading

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function. Discover the latest research on adhesion molecule and their role in health and disease here.
