Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Our previous research has confirmed that the microstructure of calcined bone/chitosan composite is similar to that of natural bone tissue, safe and non-toxic, with good compressive strength, and can promote the proliferation and adhesion of osteoblasts. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the effect of the composite on the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of calcined bone/chitosan composite on osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.

METHODS: The calcined bone/chitosan composite was co-cultured with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells of Sprague-Dawley rats for osteogenic induction in vitro. At 1, 2 and 3 weeks after osteogenic induction, the expression of genes related to osteogenic differentiation was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The calcined bone/chitosan composites can promote the proliferation and adhesion of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and promote the expression of osteogenic genes alkaline phosphatase, type I collagen, and osteocalcin, which can induce the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
