Abstract:

BACKGROUND: With the continuous development of medical model, high-level treatment and rehabilitation for bone defects are required. Therefore, bone tissue engineering technique based on stem cell culture has become a more important component of bone defect repair.
OBJECTIVE: To explore and analyze the feasibility of allogeneic adipose-derived stem cells combined with nano collagen-based bone for repair of ulna bone defects.
METHODS: Seventy adult female New Zealand rabbits were selected, 10 of which were used to isolate and culture adipose-derived stem cells, another 60 were randomized into scaffold group, scaffold+bone autograft group, scaffold+allogeneic adipose-derived stem cells group, with 20 rabbits in each group. The middle part of the ulna was resected to construct 12-mm bone defect models in the three groups, and then, corresponding materials were implanted. At 6, 9 and 12 weeks after implantation, bone mineral density was detected; at 14 weeks after implantation, the rates of solid fusion rate, non-solid fusion, and false joint were observed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with the other two groups, the rate of solid fusion was significantly higher and the rates of non-solid fusion and false joint were lower in the scaffold+allogeneic adipose-derived stem 
cells group (P < 0.05). Compared with the scaffold group, the rate of solid fusion was higher and the rates of non-solid fusion and false joint were significantly lower in the scaffold+bone autograft group (P < 0.05). The bone mineral density increased dramatically at 6, 9, 12 weeks after implantation of scaffold+allogeneic adipose-derived stem cells, which was significantly higher than that in the scaffold group and scaffold+bone autograft group (P < 0.05). Compared with the scaffold group, the bone mineral density in the scaffold+bone autograft group was significantly higher (P < 0.05). These findings indicate that allogeneic adipose-derived stem cells combined with nano collagen-based bone has exact fusion effects with a higher bone mineral density.
