Role of rhBMP-7, Fibronectin, And Type I Collagen in Dental Implant Osseointegration Process: An Initial Pilot Study on Minipig Animals. MATERIALS 2021; 14:ma14092185. [PMID: 33923213 PMCID: PMC8123155 DOI: 10.3390/ma14092185] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2021] [Revised: 04/21/2021] [Accepted: 04/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/09/2022]
Abstract
Background: The biological factors involved in dental implant osseointegration need to be investigated to improve implant success. Methods: Twenty-four implants were inserted into the tibias of six minipigs. Bone samples were obtained at 7, 14, and 56 days. Biomolecular analyses evaluated mRNA of BMP-4, -7, Transforming Growth Factor-β2, Interleukin-1β, and Osteocalcin in sites treated with rhBMP-7, Type 1 Collagen, or Fibronectin (FN). Inflammation and osteogenesis were evaluated by histological analyses. Results: At 7 and 14 days, BMP-4 and BMP-7 increased in the sites prepared with rhBMP-7 and FN. BMP-7 remained greater at 56 days in rhBMP-7 and FN sites. BPM-4 at 7 and 14 days increased in Type 1 Collagen sites; BMP-7 increased from day 14. FN increased the TGF-β2 at all experimental times, whilst the rhBMP-7 only did so up to 7 days. IL-1β increased only in collagen-treated sites from 14 days. Osteocalcin was high in FN-treated sites. Neutrophilic granulocytes characterized the inflammatory infiltrate at 7 days, and mononuclear cells at 14 and 56 days. Conclusions: This initial pilot study, in a novel way, evidenced that Type 1 Collagen induced inflammation and did not stimulate bone production; conversely FN or rhBMP-7 showed neo-osteogenetic and anti-inflammatory properties when directly added into implant bone site.

Abstract
Collagen triple helix repeat containing-1 (CTHRC1), a secreted protein, is transiently expressed in the arterial wall in response to injury, indicating that it may contribute to vascular remodeling by limiting collagen matrix deposition and promoting cell migration. Recent studies showed that it is aberrantly upregulated in most human solid tumors, yet its role in osteosarcoma remains unclear. In this study, the authors investigated the role of CTHRC1 in human osteosarcoma tumorigenesis. The authors used lentivirus-mediated short hairpin RNA (shRNA) against CTHRC1 to limit its endogenous expression in U2OS and SW1353 cells. Interestingly, they found that depletion of CTHRC1 significantly inhibited cell proliferation and colony formation in U2OS and SW1353 cells. Flow cytometry assay showed that knockdown of CTHRC1 increased the cell percentage of G0/G1 phase, resulting in cell cycle arrest in U2OS cells. Moreover, CTHRC1 silencing induced the cell cycle arrest by a decrease in the cell percentage in G0/G1 phase and increased in G2/M phase in SW1353 cells. In addition, crystal violet staining suggested CTHRC1 silencing inhibited migration of U2OS and SW1353 cells. These results demonstrated that CTHRC1 might play an important role in osteosarcoma progression.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma is the most common nonhematologic malignancy of bone in children and adults. The peak incidence occurs in the second decade of life, with a smaller peak after age 50. Osteosarcoma typically arises around the growth plate of long bones. Most osteosarcoma tumors are of high grade and tend to develop pulmonary metastases. Despite clinical improvements, patients with metastatic or recurrent diseases have a poor prognosis. Here, we reviewed the current understanding of human osteosarcoma, with an emphasis on potential links between defective osteogenic differentiation and bone tumorigenesis. Existing data indicate osteosarcoma tumors display a broad range of genetic and molecular alterations, including the gains, losses, or arrangements of chromosomal regions, inactivation of tumor suppressor genes, and the deregulation of major signaling pathways. However, except for p53 and/or RB mutations, most alterations are not constantly detected in the majority of osteosarcoma tumors. With a rapid expansion of our knowledge about stem cell biology, emerging evidence suggests osteosarcoma should be regarded as a differentiation disease caused by genetic and epigenetic changes that interrupt osteoblast differentiation from mesenchymal stem cells. Understanding the molecular pathogenesis of human osteosarcoma could ultimately lead to the development of diagnostic and prognostic markers, as well as targeted therapeutics for osteosarcoma patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Most dental implants are positioned using a drilling surgery technique. However, dentistry recently experienced the implementation of piezoelectric surgery. This technique was introduced to overcome some of the limitations involving rotating instruments in bone surgery. This study used biomolecular and histologic analyses to compare the osseointegration of porous implants positioned using traditional drills versus the piezoelectric bone surgery technique. METHODS Porous titanium implants were inserted into minipig tibias. Histomorphology and levels of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-4, transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta2, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and interleukin-1beta and -10 were evaluated in the peri-implant osseous samples. RESULTS Histomorphological analyses demonstrated that more inflammatory cells were present in samples from drilled sites. Also, neo-osteogenesis was consistently more active in bone samples from the implant sites that were prepared using piezoelectric bone surgery. Moreover, bone around the implants treated with the piezoelectric bone surgery technique showed an earlier increase in BMP-4 and TGF-beta2 proteins as well as a reduction in proinflammatory cytokines. CONCLUSION Piezoelectric bone surgery appears to be more efficient in the first phases of bone healing; it induced an earlier increase in BMPs, controlled the inflammatory process better, and stimulated bone remodeling as early as 56 days post-treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The stability of titanium implants is determined by the rigid load-bearing connections that are formed by the bone, a process that involves a complex network of cells, pro- and anti-inflammatory mediators, and growth factors. The osseointegration processes at the interfaces of machined and porous implants were studied using molecular and histological techniques. METHODS Two machined and two porous titanium implants were inserted into the tibiae of four minipigs. The animals were sacrificed at 15, 30, 60, and 90 days post-implantation. The levels of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-4, transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha were quantified in the peri-implant osseous samples. The levels of interleukin (IL)-1beta, IL-6, IL-10, and TNF-alpha in the serum were also assessed. RESULTS Histomorphological analysis showed evidence of bone ossification around the porous implant at 60 days. Surrounding the machined implants, highly sclerotic fibrous pads started the healing response at 90 days, and the levels of TGF-beta1 and BMP-4 began to increase at 60 days, at which time bone ossification around the porous implants was already evident. TNF-alpha was not present in the bone next to the implants. The serum levels of cytokines IL-1beta, IL-6, and IL-10 were not increased. The serum level of TNF-alpha increased during the healing process. CONCLUSIONS We observed that the levels of BMP-4 and TGF-beta1, which play essential roles in the osteogenesis process, increased earlier around the porous implants than around the machined implants. Similarly, the ossification process was initiated earlier at the surfaces of the porous implants than at the surfaces of the machined implants.

Abstract
The mechanism of metastasis of osteosarcoma cells to other bones has not yet fully been clarified. The purpose of the present study was to examine whether various factors involve the formation of osteosarcoma metastatic foci in other bones. Immunohistochemically, CD31 expression in osteosarcoma with no bone metastasis and osteosarcoma with bone metastasis was noted in 10 and 75% of cases, respectively. Met/hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) receptor expression in osteosarcoma with no bone metastasis and osteosarcoma with bone metastasis was noted in 90 and 25% of cases, respectively. Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) expression in osteosarcoma with no bone metastasis and osteosarcoma with bone metastasis was noted in 20 and 75% of cases, respectively. Metastasis of osteosarcoma cells to other bones was significantly correlated with expression of BMP and CD31 and with no expression of Met/HGF receptor protein in osteosarcoma cells. In contrast, expression of insulin-like growth factor receptor in osteosarcoma cells did not correlate significantly with bone metastasis. These results suggest that formation of metastatic foci of osteosarcoma cells in other bones is regulated by CD31, which is associated with migration between endothelial cells, by BMP, which can induce and activate various mesenchymal cells affecting bone formation, and by escape of effect by HGF, which promotes differentiation of osteosarcoma cells.

Abstract
Osteoblastic culture models, experimental, and clinical models have revealed that bone growth factors influence cellular activity. Growth factors including bone morphogenetic proteins, transforming growth factor beta, platelet-derived growth factor, insulin-like growth factors I and II, and acidic and basic fibroblast growth factors, are powerful tools for fracture healing and bone grafting. Understanding the role that bone growth factors play in bone repair is necessary to apply these factors in a clinical setting.

Abstract
To identify the function of these bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP) during pathogenesis of cleft palate, an experimental model was established in BALB/c mice. Cleft palate was induced by exposure to retinoic acid on embryonic day (E)12. The expression of BMP-2,3,4,5 mRNA in normal and abnormal embryonic palatal shelves was then examined from E13 to E16 by in situ hybridization. The results showed that BMP-4 mRNA was expressed strongly and uniformly in normal epithelial cells and dispersed mesenchymal cells on E13. BMP-2,5 mRNA expression appeared only in dispersed mesenchymal cells. With the development of shelves, the staining density of BMP-2,4,5 decreased gradually in mesenchymal cells outside of the condensation and increased inside the condensation. After shelves had fused on E16, no positive signals for BMP-2,4,5 were detected in dispersed mesenchymal cells, but their expression persisted in the condensation. Exposure to retinoic acid delayed the formation of the condensation and decreased BMP-2,4,5 mRNA dramatically in mesenchyme from E13 to E15. BMP-3 mRNA expression were almost negative in either control or retinoic acid-treated groups during all stages. It was concluded that spatial and temporal expression of BMP-2,4,5 was required during normal palatogenesis, and that a deficiency of their mRNA expression may contribute to the pathogenesis of cleft palate.

Abstract
The regeneration of bone remains an elusive yet important goal in the field of orthopaedic surgery. Despite its limitations, autogenous cancellous bone grafting continues to the most effective means by which bone healing is enhanced clinically. Biosynthetic bone grafts currently are being developed as an alternative to autogenous bone grafting. These grafts generally contain one or more of three critical components: (1) osteoprogenitor cells; (2) an osteoconductive matrix; and (3) osteoinductive growth factors. The importance of each of these components based on preclinical data supports their use in biosynthetic bone grafts. The use of growth factors such as bone morphogenetic proteins, transforming growth factor, platelet derived growth factor, and fibroblastic growth factor is reviewed in preclinical long bone defect and spinal fusion models. The use of bone marrow in preclinical and clinical settings is presented with specific emphasis given to the use of bone marrow as a source of osteoprogenitor cells and how the use of these cells can be enhanced with the use of bone morphogenetic protein-2. These data support the concept that although products that contain only one of the three key components of a bone graft may regenerate bone successfully, composites of the three key components will be more successful clinically.

Abstract
Prostatic adenocarcinoma commonly metastasizes to bone. Unlike most other bony secondaries, the majority of skeletal prostatic metastases are osteoblastic rather than osteolytic in nature. Several growth factors which are known to stimulate bone formation are expressed in benign and malignant prostate cells, but none has been specifically linked to osteosclerotic metastases. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) induce ectopic bone formation in vivo. We have reported previously that BMP-6 mRNA and protein are expressed in the majority of primary prostatic carcinomas with established skeletal metastases but rarely in clinically organ-confined tumours. This study examines the expression of BMP-6 mRNA in matched prostatic primary and secondary bony lesions and in isolated skeletal metastases from prostatic adenocarcinomas, as well as other common human malignancies, by in situ hybridization. BMP-6 mRNA was detected in 11 out of 13 bone metastases from prostate carcinoma and in three paired samples of primary prostate carcinoma and matching skeletal metastasis. Weak signals for BMP-6 were also present in 5 out of 17 skeletal deposits from non-prostatic malignancies. BMP-6 mRNA appears to be strongly expressed in prostatic adenocarcinomas, both in the primary tumour and in bone metastases. It is also expressed, though less frequently, in skeletal metastases from other human carcinomas. Our findings suggest that BMP-6 may hold potential as an attractive marker and possible mediator of skeletal metastases, particularly in prostate carcinoma.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to describe the expression and distribution of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) in odontogenic tumors by immunohistochemistry using monoclonal antibody against bovine BMP (BMPMcAb). Eight types of odontogenic tumors (44 cases), including ameloblastoma (20 cases), cementifying fibroma (8 cases), benign cementoblastoma (5 cases), dentinoma (3 cases), compound odontoma (2 cases), adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (2 cases), calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (2 cases) and odontogenic fibroma (2 cases), were studied. The results showed that, according to the immunostaining pattern of BMPMcAb, tumors could be classified into two types: all cementifying fibromas, benign cementoblastomas, dentinomas, odontogenic fibromas, and compound odontomas demonstrated a positive reaction, whereas all ameloblastomas, adenomatoid odontogenic tumors, and calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumors were negative. BMPMcAb-positive odontogenic tumors were those tumors with formation of enamel, dentin, cementum or bone. Therefore, BMP might play an important role in the formation of calcified dental tissues and the development of odontogenic tumors contaning such tissues.

Abstract
Immunohistochemical reaction of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) was assessed in 19 cases of skin mixed tumor and 5 cases of skin appendage tumors by using monoclonal antibody raised against BMP. All cases of skin mixed tumor showed positive staining for BMP in modified myoepithelial cells located at the periphery of tubulo-ductal or solid structures, and in plasmacytoid or tumor cells in hyalinous structures. Chondroidally changed cells also showed a strong BMP immunoreactivity. Tumors originating from sweat glands were devoid of BMP immunoreactivity. It is concluded that BMP is synthesized and produced in modified or transformed myoepithelial cells in skin mixed tumor and participates in the process of chondroid changes in the tumor.

Abstract
The distribution of immunoreactivity of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP), the glycosaminoglycans chondroitin 4-sulphate (C4SPG), chondroitin 6-sulphate (C6SPG), dermatan sulphate (DSPG) and keratan sulphate proteoglycans (KSPG), cytokeratin (K8.12), vimentin, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), actin, desmin, S-100 protein and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) in mixed tumour of the skin was investigated using immunohistochemical methods using monoclonal (MoAb) and polyclonal antibodies (PoAb). A strong BMP immunoreactivity was found characteristically in outer tumour cells of tubuloductal structures and modified myoepithelial cells. Modified myoepithelial cells and chondroidally changed cells showed positive immunoreactivity for C4SPG, C6SPG and DSPG; and KSPG was more pronounced in the modified myoepithelial cells. Vimentin, S-100 protein, GFAP and NSE, but not actin and desmin, were distribute in the outer tumour cells and modified myoepithelial cells in chondroidally changed tissue. Two factors show that chondrogenesis in mixed tumour of the skin is associated with the modified myoepithelial cells through the activity of BMP and biosynthesis of glycosaminoglycans as matrix substance. First, outer or basal tumour cells in mixed tumour of the skin is characterized by the presence of positive immunoreactivity for BMP, KSPG, vimentin, cytokeratin K8.12, S-100 protein, GFAP and NSE, and second, there is a matrix of chondroidally changed tissue containing the reaction products of C4SPG, C6SPG, DSPF and KSPG.

Abstract
Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) is a potent induction factor for new bone formation including heterotopic chondro-ossification in soft tissues. The immunohistochemical reaction for BMP was studied in 23 cases of pleomorphic adenoma of salivary gland by using a monoclonal antibody produced by hybridoma technique. Positive BMP immunoreactivity was seen in 87% of tumours. Immunohistochemical expression of BMP was observed in modified myoepithelial cells (88% cases), luminal tumour cells of tubulo-ductal structures (78% cases) and chondroid cells in hyaline tissue (22% cases). The authors concluded that the simultaneous presence of glycosaminoglycans as matrix substance with BMP-mediated cellular activity of modified myoepithelial cells in the formation of chondroid structures in pleomorphic adenomas of the salivary glands.

Abstract
Immunohistochemical detection of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) in calcifying fibrous epulis was performed to elucidate the biological process of ossification and cemento-ossification. In a total 25 cases, 15 (60%) showed positive BMP staining in bone forming areas. Histopathological features of developing hard tissues were varied, consisting of structures such as woven bone and cemento-osseous formations. BMP immunostaining was limited to osteoblasts and fibrous connective tissue surrounding the bone matrix. BMP was concentrated in the periodontal fibres and in dense fibrous structures in the cemento-osseous masses. On the basis of histopathological and immunohistochemical features, the histogenesis of ossifying and cemento-ossifying processes appear to be of two possible origins; the excessive proliferation of periodontal ligament and a metaplastic process occurring in the connective tissue fibres (non-periodontal in origin), with the former being more common.
