Abstract (original English)
Adipose-derived stem cells mitigate deleterious effects of radiation on bone and enhance radiated fracture healing by replacing damaged cells and stimulating angiogenesis. However, adipose-derived stem cell harvest and delivery techniques must be refined to comply with the US Food and Drug Administration restrictions on implantation of cultured cells into human subjects prior to clinical translation. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the preservation of efficacy of adipose-derived stem cells to remediate the injurious effects of radiation on fracture healing utilizing a novel harvest and delivery technique that avoids the need for cell culture. Forty-four Lewis rats were divided into 4 groups: fracture control (Fx), radiated fracture control (XFx), radiated fracture treated with cultured adipose-derived stem cells (ASC), and radiated fracture treated with noncultured minimally processed adipose-derived stem cells (MP-ASC). Excluding the Fx group, all rats received a fractionated human-equivalent dose of radiation. All groups underwent mandibular osteotomy with external fixation. Following sacrifice on postoperative day 40, union rate, mineralization, and biomechanical strength were compared between groups at P < 0.05 significance. Compared with Fx controls, the XFx group demonstrated decreased union rate (100% vs 20%), bone volume fraction (P = 0.003), and ultimate lo
