Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Cell based tissue engineered bone is successful in the repair of bone defects, but it is a complex operation, easy to be contaminated and takes a long time, and not conducive to clinical application.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the efficacy of repairing large-segment bone defects by non-cell based tissue engineered complex constructed by autologous red bone marrow.
METHODS: Twenty-seven rabbits were used to prepare 2 cm unilateral radial large-segment bone defect models, and then randomly divided into group A, group B and group C. Group A was implanted with autologous red bone marrow to construct tissue engineered bone (autologous red bone marrow+recombinant human insulin-like growth factor-1/coralline hydroxyapatite); group B was implanted with autologous red bone marrow/coralline hydroxyapatite artificial bone material; group C was implanted with coralline hydroxyapatite/recombinant human insulin-like growth factor-1 artificial bone material.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Group A was superior to the other two group in terms of osteogenic potential and material degradation by comparison of degree of bone formation, bone trabecular number, the structure formation of mature bone and implant degradation at 4, 8, 12 weeks after implantation (P < 0.05). Non-cell based tissue engineered bone constructed by autologous red bone marrow has better osteogenic activity, and effective to repair large-segment bone defects.
