Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Nano-hydroxyapatite/collagen (nHAC) is a kind of nano-bone material prepared according to bionic principle, its micro-structure and compositions are closely similar to natural bone, has good biocompatibility.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the bonding of rabbit marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and nHAC cultured in vitro, and to explore the feasibility of constructing tissue-engineering bone.
METHODS: Rabbit MSCs were isolated, cultured and purified in vitro, then rabbit MSCs of third generation were seeded onto the nHAC. Their adhesion situation was analyzed by laser confocal scanning microscope and scanning electron microscope at 3, 7, 20 days.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Rabbit MSCs were well combined with nHAC, cell growth could be seen under confocal scanning microscope and scanning electron microscope; nHAC can be served as a good scaffold, it can make MSCs stably grow. Rabbit MSCs grow adherently in nHAC, and show osteogenesis potential.
