Abstract
PURPOSE: The purpose of these two pilot studies using animal bony defect models was to evaluate the influence of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) and proportion of hydroxyapatite (HA)/beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) in biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) graft on new bone formation. METHODS: In this study, four kinds of synthetic osteoconductive bone materials known for bone growth scaffold, OSTEON™II(HA:β-TCP 30:70), OSTEON™III (HA:β-TCP 20:80), OSTEON™II Collagen, and OSTEON™III Collagen, were prepared as BCP graft materials. In pilot study 1, three BCP materials (OSTEON™II, OSTEON™III, and OSTEON™II Collagen) were grafted in rabbit calvarial defects after impregnating in rhBMP-2. OSTEON™II without the rhBMP-2 impregnation was included in the study as the control. The amount of new bone was examined and measured histologically at 2, 4, and 8 weeks. In pilot study 2, four BCP materials (OSTEON™II, OSTEON™III, OSTEON™II Collagen, and OSTEON™III Collagen) were grafted in beagle dog mandibular defects after soaking in the rhBMP-2. The amount of total bone and new bone were measured three-dimensionally using microCT and healing process was examined histologically at 2, 4, and 8 weeks. RESULTS: In pilot study 1, rhBMP-2 impregnated groups showed more new bone formation than the rhBMP-2 free group. In pilot study 2, increased new bone formation was observed in time-dependent manner after graft of BCP and BCP-collagen (OSTEON™II, OSTEON™III, OSTEON™II Collagen, and OSTEON™III Collagen) impregnated with rhBMP-2. Also, BCP with a higher proportion of HA (30% HA) showed more favorable result in new bone formation and space maintenance, especially at the 8 weeks. CONCLUSION: From the results of the pilot studies, rhBMP-2 played positive roles in new bone formation and BCP could become a scaffold candidate for rhBMP-2 impregnation to induce new bone formation. Moreover, BCP with a higher proportion of HA (30% HA) could be considered more appropriate for rhBMP-2 carrier.
