Evaluation of biocompatibility and osteoconductivity of a hybrid cell-tissue graft for bone regenerative medicine

Abstract

Aim – to evaluate in vitro the biocompatibility and osteoconductivity of a hybrid graft based on a bioorganic matrix, human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-MSC) and osteogenic growth factors. Material and methods. Bioorganic matrices were studied for biocompatibility with human BM-MSC culture used in traumatology and orthopedics. For promoted osteogenic differentiation of BM-MSCs, allogeneic plasma enriched with soluble platelet factors was used. The osteogenic potential of BM-MSCs by the synthesis of mRNAs of early (transcription factor 2 (Run X2), alkaline phosphatase (ALP)) and late genes (osteopontin (OSP)) osteogenesis was analyzed. The properties of cell adhesion and proliferation of MSCs in the conditions of a three-dimensional hybrid graft by the MTT test and fluorescence microscopy were assessed. Results. The biocompatibility of the studied bioorganic matrices with human BM-MSCs was established. The collagen matrix promoted rapid cell adhesion and proliferation between the scaffold fibrils. It has also been established that allogeneic platelet-rich plasma affects the osteogenic differentiation of human BM-MSCs in vitro, increasing the expression of marker genes RunX2, ALP, OSP. When modeling a hybrid graft in vitro, the formation of a tight contact between the alloimplant and collagen biopolymer using MSCs was shown. Conclusion. The biological properties of the developed hybrid cell-tissue graft characterize its biocompatibility and osteoconductivity of its constituent components, which makes it promising for use in regenerative medicine, especially in reconstructive surgery of bone defects.
