    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To construct a novel biomimetic calcium phosphate (BioCaP) scaffold loaded with bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), and to investigate its role in the osteogenesis of human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) in vitro and in vivo. METHODS: The BioCaP scaffold coprecipitated with BMP-2 (BMP-2-BioCaP) was constructed in this study. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to analyze the morphology of the surfaces. The release kinetics was measured to evaluate the slow-release characteristics in vitro. BMP-2-BioCaP was immersed in proliferation medium (PM) or osteogenic medium (OM), respectively. The supernatants were collected and used to culture hASCs in vitro. Cell numbers were determined using the cell-counting kit-8 (CCK-8) to assess the cell proliferation. After 7 and 14 days, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining and quantification were performed to test the activity of ALP. After 14 and 21 days, the calcification deposition was determined by alizarin red S (ARS) staining and quantification. The expressions of the osteoblast-related genes were tested on day 4 and day 14. In the in vivo study, 6 nude mice were used and implanted subcutaneously into the back of the nude mice for 4 groups: (1) BioCaP scaffold only, (2) BioCaP scaffold+hASCs, (3) BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold, (4) BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold+hASCs (test group). After 4 weeks of implantation, hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was performed to evaluate the in vivo osteogenesis of hASCs. RESULTS: SEM observations showed that BioCaP and BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold were entirely composed of straight, plate-like and sharp-edged crystal units, and the length of the crystal units varied between 5 and 10 μm. Release kinetics analysis demonstrated that BMP-2 incorporated with BioCaP could be released at certain concentration and last for more than 21 days, and the accumulative protein release could reach 20%. CCK-8 assays showed that cell proliferation was not significantly affected by BMP-2-BioCaP. ALP activity was higher by the induction of OM+BMP-2-BioCaP than of the other groups (P<0.01). More mineralization deposition and more expressions of osteoblast-related genes such as Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), ALP, osteopontin (OPN) and osteocalcin (OC) were determined in the OM+BMP-2-BioCaP group at different time points (P<0.01). HE staining showed that, in the test group and BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold group, the extracellular matrix (ECM) with eosinophilic staining were observed around hASCs, and newly-formed bone-like tissues could be found in ECM around the scaffold materials. Moreover, compared with the BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold group, more bone-like tissues could be observed in ECM with typical structure of bone tissue in the test groups. No obvious positive results were found in the other groups. CONCLUSION: BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold could achieve slow-release of BMP-2 and promote the osteogenic differentiation of hASCs in vitro and in vivo. The novel tissue-engineered bone composed of hASCs and BMP-2-BioCaPis promising for the repair of bone defect.
