Abstract (original English)
Background Adipose-derived stem cells have recently shown differentiation potential in multiple mesenchymal lineages in vitro and in vivo. These cells can be easily isolated in large amounts from autologous adipose tissue and used without culturing or differentiation induction, which may make them relatively easy to use for clinical purposes; however, their use has not been tested in a distraction osteogenesis model. Question/purposes The question of this animal study in a rodent model of distraction osteogenesis was whether uncultured adipose-derived regenerative cells (ADRCs), which can easily be isolated in large amounts from autologous adipose tissue and contain several types of stem and regenerative cells, promote bone formation in distraction osteogenesis. We evaluated this using several tools: (1) radiographic analysis of bone density; (2) histological analysis of the callus that formed; (3) biomechanical testing; (4) DiI labeling (a method of membrane staining for postimplant celltracing); and (5) real-time polymerase chain reaction. Methods Sixty rats were randomly assigned to three groups. Physiological saline (control group), Type I collagen gel (collagen group), or a mixture of ADRC and Type I collagen gel (ADRC group) was injected into the distracted callus immediately after distraction termination. To a rat femur an external fixator was applied at a rate of 0.8 mm
