Abstract

The biological properties of a new gene-activated osteoplastic material based on chitosan sponges impregnated with plasmids with the gene for the bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP2) have been studied. The optimal conditions for transfection of multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells with TurboFect reagent were selected. The in vitro osteoinducing effect of the developed material associated with an increase in the expression of osteogenic markers in mesenchymal stromal cells was shown. The designed gene-activated material can be used to repair bone defects. gene-activated material, plasmids, BMP-2, gene therapy, bone regeneration The work was supported by the Russian Science Foundation (Grant no. 16-15-00298).
