Abstract (original English)

Background The objective of this study was to compare the osteogenic potential of reinforced and conventional tissue-engineered periosteum. Methods Adipose-derived stromal cells of rabbits were induced into osteoblasts. Osteoinduced cells were seeded onto chitosan-tricalcium-phosphate-gelatin (Cs-TCP-Gel) and chitosan (Cs) scaffold, thus constructing the reinforced and conventional tissue-engineered periostea, respectively. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and von Kossa staining protocols were used to assess osteoblast phenotype.We surgically created a 15-mm-long bone defect in the right radii of New Zealand rabbits. The defects were treated with reinforced biomimetic periosteum in group A (n = 30) and treated with conventional tissue-engineered periosteum in group B (n = 30).Group C (n = 30) received CS-TCP-Gel scaffold alone, and group D (n = 30) served as untreated side (sham group). Radiologic,histologic, immunohistochemical, and histomorphometric studies were used to analyze healing pattern. Results ALP was remarkably expressed in the osteoinduced cells, indicating that osteoblastic differentiation was stable. Extracellular matrix calcification with dark nodule was detected by von Kossa staining. Compared with groups B and C, histologic results demonstrated that de novo osteogenesis proliferated in group A at 4 weeks. This was further confirmed by radiographic findings, which di

What this study does not prove
