Abstract:[Objective] To evaluate the efficacy of calcium phosphate cement (CPC) / fibrin glue (FG) / mechano-growth factor (MGF) / bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) tissue engineered artificial bone in repairing osteoporotic bone defects in rats. [Methods] The CPC/FG (scaffold) , CPC/FG/BMSCs (scaffold-cells) and CPC/FG/MGF/BMSCs (fully composed) were constructed in vitro. Fifty-four Sprague-Dawley female rats were randomly divided into 3 groups. The rats were firstly treated with bilateral ovariectomies, 3 months later had a 4 mm radial bone defect in length created, then CPC/FG, CPC/FG/BMSCs and CPC/FG/MGF/BMSCs filled respectively. Radiograph- ic check, histological observation and ALP immunohistochemistry were conducted 4 weeks and 8 weeks postoperatively. [Results] Com- pared with those at 4 weeks after operation, all the 3 groups of animals got significant increases in terms of radiographic and histological scores (P<0.05) , whereas the IOD values of ALP immunohistochemistry decreased significantly at 8 weeks postoperatively (P<0.05) . At all the corresponding time points, the radiographic and histological scores, as well as the ALP immunohistochemistry IOD value was all ranked up-down as: the fully composed group > scaffold cell group > scaffold group, with statistical significances in total (P<0.05) . [Conclusion] Compared with the pure scaffold or scaffold-cell materials, fully composed material containing mechano-growth factor has better capacity to repair osteoporotic bone defect.
