Abstract
OBJECTIVES Recently, recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 9 (rhBMP9) has been characterized as one of the most osteogenic growth factors among the 15 human BMPs. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of rhBMP9 in comparison to the clinically utilized rhBMP2 on in vitro cell behavior when combined with two bone graft materials including demineralized freeze-dried bone allografts (DFDBAs) and biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP). MATERIALS AND METHODS The absorption and release kinetics of rhBMPs from DFDBA and BCP were investigated by ELISA. Moreover, murine bone stromal ST2 cell behavior was investigated on DFDBA or BCP seeded on (1) graft only, (2) rhBMP2 (10 ng/ml), (3) rhBMP2 (100 ng/ml), (4) rhBMP9 (10 ng/ml), and (5) rhBMP9 (100 ng/ml). The effects of rhBMPs on DFDBA and BCP were assessed for cell adhesion, proliferation, and osteoblast differentiation by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, alizarin red staining, and real-time PCR for genes encoding Runx2, ALP, and bone sialoprotein (BSP). RESULTS While both BMPs were gradually released from DFDBA and BCP over time, significantly higher adsorption was observed on BCP when compared to DFDBA. Cell attachment and proliferation was higher on BCP with little influence of either rhBMP2/9. Despite rhBMPs having relatively no effect on cell attachment/proliferation, a pronounced and marked effect was observed on osteoblast differentiation for both rhBMP2/9. Interestingly, it was observed that rhBMP9 induced significantly higher ALP activity, alizarin red staining, and messenger RNA (mRNA) levels of ALP and BSP when compared to rhBMP2. Our results also revealed higher differentiation for rhBMP2/9 with BCP when compared to DFDBA most likely as a result of higher growth factor adsorption. CONCLUSION While both rhBMP2/9 combined with DFDBA or BCP induced osteoblast differentiation, rhBMP9 induced greater osteoblast differentiation when compared to rhBMP2. CLINICAL RELEVANCE rhBMP9 may be a recombinant growth factor with higher potential to induce new bone formation when compared to rhBMP2. Further in vivo studies are necessary to characterize its regenerative potential in various animal models.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP2) has been successfully utilized in dentistry to promote new bone formation because of its osteoinductive ability to recruit mesenchymal progenitor cells and induce their differentiation to bone-forming osteoblasts. Recently, novel biphasic calcium phosphate scaffolds have been developed with similar osteoinductive properties capable of forming ectopic bone formation. PURPOSE The aim of the present study was to assess whether the combination of BMP2 with this novel Biphasic Calcium Phosphate (BCP) scaffold may additionally promote new bone regeneration. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cylindrical bone defects measuring 2.5 mm were created bilaterally in the femurs of 18 Wistar rats. After 4 weeks, the following six groups were assessed for new bone formation by micro-computed tomography (CT) as well as histological assessment: 1) collagen scaffolds + 20 μg of BMP2; 2) collagen scaffolds + 50 μg of BMP2; 3) collagen scaffolds + 100 μg of BMP2; 4) BCP scaffolds + 20 μg of BMP2; 5) BCP scaffolds + 50 μg of BMP2; and 6) BCP scaffolds + 100 μg of BMP2. Furthermore, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining was utilized to assess osteoclast activity and osteoclast number. The release kinetics of BMP2 from both BCP and collagen scaffolds was investigated over a 14-day period. RESULTS The results from present study demonstrate that BMP2 is able to promote new bone formation in a concentration dependant manner when loaded with either a collagen scaffolds or BCP scaffolds. Micro-CT analysis demonstrated significantly higher levels of new bone formation in groups containing BCP + BMP2 when compared with collagen scaffolds + BMP2. BMP2 had little effect on osteoclast activity; however, less TRAP staining and osteoclast number was observed in the defects receiving collagen scaffolds when compared with BCP scaffolds. The release of BMP2 over time was rapidly released after 1 day on BCP scaffolds whereas a gradually release over time was observed for collagen scaffolds up to 14 days. CONCLUSION The osteoinductive properties of BMP2 may further be enhanced by its combination with a novel synthetically fabricated osteoinductive BCP scaffold. Future clinical testing is required to further assess these preliminary findings.

Osteogenic embryoid body-derived material induces bone formation in vivo. Sci Rep 2015; 5:9960.

Abstract
The progressive loss of endogenous regenerative capacity that accompanies mammalian aging has been attributed at least in part to alterations in the extracellular matrix (ECM) composition of adult tissues. Thus, creation of a more regenerative microenvironment, analogous to embryonic morphogenesis, may be achieved via pluripotent embryonic stem cell (ESC) differentiation and derivation of devitalized materials as an alternative to decellularized adult tissues, such as demineralized bone matrix (DBM). Transplantation of devitalized ESC materials represents a novel approach to promote functional tissue regeneration and reduce the inherent batch-to-batch variability of allograft-derived materials. In this study, the osteoinductivity of embryoid body-derived material (EBM) was compared to DBM in a standard in vivo ectopic osteoinduction assay in nude mice. EBM derived from EBs differentiated for 10 days with osteogenic media (+β-glycerophosphate) exhibited similar osteoinductivity to active DBM (osteoinduction score = 2.50 ± 0.27 vs. 2.75 ± 0.16) based on histological scoring, and exceeded inactive DBM (1.13 ± 0.13, p < 0.005). Moreover, EBM stimulated formation of new bone, ossicles, and marrow spaces, similar to active DBM. The potent osteoinductivity of EBM demonstrates that morphogenic factors expressed by ESCs undergoing osteogenic differentiation yield a novel devitalized material capable of stimulating de novo bone formation in vivo.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study compared the bone regenerative effects of a recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 2 (rhBMP-2)-loaded collagen-based biphasic calcium phosphate composite (BCPC) and rhBMP-2-loaded biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP). MATERIAL AND METHODS The in vitro release profiles of rhBMP-2-loaded BCP and BCPC were measured. The animal surgery was performed on ten rabbits. Four 8-mm-diameter circular calvarial defects were made and filled with BCP, BCPC, rhBMP-2-loaded BCP (BMP + BCP) and rhBMP-2-loaded BCPC (BMP + BCPC). The animals were euthanized either 2 or 8 weeks after surgery. RESULTS The initial burst release of rhBMP-2 was greater for BCP than for BCPC, and both presented a slow release pattern thereafter. In rabbit calvarial defects, the space maintaining capability and graft resorption of all experimental groups did not show statistical differences at 2 and 8 weeks. New bone formation in the rhBMP-2-loaded groups was greater than in the non-loaded groups at both weeks, but the amount of new bone was comparable between both rhBMP-2-loaded groups at both weeks. There was a distinct histologic difference between the BMP + BCP and BMP + BCPC groups at 2 weeks; the new bone formation occurred more in the intergranular spaces and the BCP-to-bone contact was greater in the BMP + BCPC group, but these differences were no longer discernible at 8 weeks. CONCLUSIONS BCP- and BCPC-loaded rhBMP-2 significantly improved bone regeneration and BCPC led to a dense network of new bone and bone particles during the early healing period. BCPC can therefore be considered as a promising candidate for carrying rhBMP-2.

Abstract
Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease that causes loss of the tooth-supporting apparatus, including periodontal ligament, cementum, and alveolar bone. A broad range of treatment options is currently available to restore the structure and function of the periodontal tissues. A regenerative approach, among others, is now considered the most promising paradigm for this purpose, harnessing the unique properties of stem cells. How to make full use of the body's innate regenerative capacity is thus a key issue. While stem cells and bioactive factors are essential components in the regenerative processes, matrices play pivotal roles in recapitulating stem cell functions and potentiating therapeutic actions of bioactive molecules. Moreover, the positions of appropriate bioactive matrices relative to the injury site may stimulate the innate regenerative stem cell populations, removing the need to deliver cells that have been manipulated outside of the body. In this topical review, we update views on advanced designs of biomatrices-including mimicking of the native extracellular matrix, providing mechanical stimulation, activating cell-driven matrices, and delivering bioactive factors in a controllable manner-which are ultimately useful for the regenerative therapy of periodontal tissues.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of the present randomized controlled trial was to determine the safety and efficacy of injectable demineralized bone matrix (DBM) gel combined with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) on alveolar ridge preservation after tooth extraction. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 69 patients were randomly assigned to either a test group (n = 35) or a control group (n = 34). In the test group, DBM, together with rhBMP-2 (0.05 mg/mL; rhBMP-2/DBM) was transplanted into the extraction sockets. The control group received DBM alone. The safety of rhBMP-2/DBM was evaluated by oral examination, serum chemistry, and hematologic examination. The radiographic changes in alveolar bone height and width were measured using computed tomography scans performed immediately after transplant and again 3 months thereafter. RESULTS Healing was uneventful in all subjects, with no anticipated adverse events and no clinically significant changes in the serum chemistry and hematologic findings. No meaningful immune response was found among the study groups. No significant difference was found in the radiographic changes of alveolar bone height and width (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS This new injectable biomaterial can be used easily and safely in clinical applications.

Abstract
Objectives The
purpose of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of adding
platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to a new highly purified bovine allograft
(Laddec®) in the bone regeneration of cystic bony defects
augmented following cystectomy. Material and Methods Study
sample included 20 patients undergoing cystectomy in which the bone
defect was filled with PRP and Laddec®. All patients were
examined with periapical radiographs before operation and at follow-up.
After 3 months, at re-entry surgery for implant placement, bone core was
taken for histological and histomorphometric analysis. Results The
postoperative successive radiographs showed a good regeneration of bone
in the height of bony defects with application of PRP to bone graft. By
the first postoperative month, about 48% of the defect was filled, which
gradually increased in each month and showed about 90% of defect-fill by
6 months. Histological and histomorphometric analysis, showed a
significant presence of bone tissue and vessels, with newly formed bone
in contact with anorganic bone particles. The mean volume of vital bone
was 68 ± 1.6% and the mean percentage of vital bone was 48 ± 2.4%. The
mean percentage of inorganic particles in tissues was 20 ± 1.2% of the
total volume. All the samples analyzed did not evidence the presence of
inflammatory cells. Conclusions The
results of this study showed how the use of Laddec® in
association with platelet-rich plasma allows bone regeneration and has a
potential for routine clinical use for regeneration of cystic bony
defects.

Abstract
Thiolated chitosan (Thio-CS) is a well-established pharmaceutical excipient for drug delivery. However, its use as a scaffold for bone formation has not been investigated. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of Thio-CS in bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) delivery and bone formation. In vitro study showed that BMP-2 interacted with the Thio-CS and did not affect the swelling behavior. The release kinetics of BMP-2 from the Thio-CS was slightly delayed (70%) within 7 days compared with that from collagen gel (Col-gel, 85%), which is widely used in BMP-2 delivery. The BMP-2 released from Thio-CS increased osteoblastic cell differentiation but did not show any cytotoxicity until 21 days. Analysis of the in vivo ectopic bone formation at 4 weeks of posttransplantation showed that use of Thio-CS for BMP-2 delivery induced more bone formation to a greater extent (1.8 fold) than that of Col-gel. However, bone mineral density in both bones was equivalent, regardless of Thio-CS or Col-gel carrier. Taken together, Thio-CS system might be useful for delivering osteogenic protein BMP-2 and present a promising bone regeneration strategy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preclinical and clinical studies suggest that a combination of enamel matrix derivative (EMD) with demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) may improve periodontal wound healing and regeneration. To date, no single study has characterized the effects of this combination on in vitro cell behavior. The aim of this study is to test the ability of EMD to adsorb to the surface of DFDBA particles and determine the effect of EMD coating on downstream cellular pathways such as adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation of primary human osteoblasts and periodontal ligament (PDL) cells. METHODS DFDBA particles were precoated with EMD or human blood and analyzed for protein adsorption patterns via scanning electron microscopy. Cell attachment and proliferation were quantified using a commercial assay. Cell differentiation was analyzed using real-time polymerase chain reaction for genes encoding Runx2, alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, and collagen 1α1, and mineralization was assessed using alizarinred staining. RESULTS Analysis of cell attachment revealed no significant differences among control, blood-coated, and EMD-coated DFDBA particles. EMD significantly increased cell proliferation at 3 and 5 days after seeding for both osteoblasts and PDL cells compared to control and blood-coated samples. Moreover, there were significantly higher messenger ribonucleic acid levels of osteogenic differentiation markers, including collagen 1α1, alkaline phosphatase, and osteocalcin, in osteoblasts and PDL cells cultured on EMD-coated DFDBA particles at 3, 7, and 14 days. CONCLUSION The results suggest that the addition of EMD to DFDBA particles may influence periodontal regeneration by stimulating PDL cell and osteoblast proliferation and differentiation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Various bone graft materials have been used for periodontal tissue regeneration. Demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) is a widely used bone substitute. The current widespread use of DFDBA is based on its potential osteoinductive ability. Due to the lack of verifiable data, the purpose of this study was to assess the osteoinductive activity of different DFDBAs in vitro. METHODS Sarcoma osteogenic (SaOS-2) cells (human osteoblast-like cells) were exposed to 8 mg/mL and 16 mg/mL concentrations of three commercial types of DFDBA: Osseo+, AlloOss, and Cenobone. The effect of these materials on cell proliferation was determined using the 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay. The osteoinductive ability was evaluated using alizarin red staining, and the results were confirmed by evaluating osteogenic gene expression using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). RESULTS In the SaOS-2 cells, an 8 mg/mL concentration of Osseo+ and Cenobone significantly increased cell proliferation in 48 hours after exposure (P<0.001); however, in these two bone materials, the proliferation of cells was significantly decreased after 48 hours of exposure with a 16 mg/mL concentration (P<0.001). The alizarin red staining results demonstrated that the 16 mg/mL concentration of all three tested DFDBA induced complete morphologic differentiation and mineralized nodule production of the SaOS-2 cells. The RT-PCR results revealed osteopontin gene expression at a 16 mg/mL concentration of all three test groups, but not at an 8 mg/mL concentration. CONCLUSIONS These commercial types of DFDBA are capable of decreasing proliferation and increasing osteogenic differentiation of the SaOS-2 cell line and have osteoinductive activity in vitro.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Demineralized bone matrix is commonly used as a bone graft substitute, either alone or to supplement an osteoconductive material, because of its osteoinductive properties. The aging of the population has led to an increase in the number of prospective donors of demineralized bone matrix who have taken bisphosphonates to prevent osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. The aim of this study was to determine whether oral bisphosphonate usage affects the osteoinductivity of demineralized bone matrix from donors. METHODS Sex-matched and age-matched pairs of samples were provided by four tissue banks (three or four pairs per bank). Demineralized bone matrix donors without bisphosphonate treatment had a mean age (and standard deviation) of 69.1 ± 2.5 years, and donors with bisphosphonate treatment had a mean age of 68.9 ± 2.0 years. Each pair included one donor known to have taken bisphosphonates and one who had not taken bisphosphonates. Demineralized bone matrix previously confirmed as osteoinductive was the positive control, and heat-inactivated demineralized bone matrix was the negative control. Demineralized bone matrix incubated with 1 mL of phosphate-buffered saline solution containing 0, 0.002, 2.0, or 2000 ng/mL of alendronate was also tested. Gelatin capsules containing 15 mg of demineralized bone matrix were implanted bilaterally in the gastrocnemius muscle of male nude mice (eight implants per group). The mice were killed thirty-five days after implantation, and hind limbs were recovered and processed for histological analysis. Osteoinductivity was measured with use of a qualitative score and by histomorphometry. RESULTS Nine of fifteen samples from donors who had had bisphosphonate treatment and ten of fifteen samples from patients who had not had bisphosphonate treatment were osteoinductive. Qualitative mean scores were comparable (1.7 ± 0.4 for those without bisphosphonates and 1.9 ± 0.7 for those with bisphosphonates). Osteoinductive demineralized bone matrix samples produced ossicles of comparable size, regardless of bisphosphonate usage. Histomorphometric measurements of the area of new bone formation and residual demineralized bone matrix were also comparable. The addition of alendronate to control demineralized bone matrix did not affect its osteoinductivity. CONCLUSIONS Demineralized bone matrix samples from donors treated with bisphosphonates and donors not treated with bisphosphonates have the same ability to induce bone formation. However, it is not known if the quality of the new bone is affected, with subsequent consequences affecting bone remodeling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Allografts, such as demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) and mineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (FDBA) are commonly used by clinicians for ridge preservation procedures. The primary objective of this study is to histologically evaluate and compare the healing of non-molar extraction sockets grafted with DFDBA versus FDBA for ridge preservation. The secondary aim of this study is to compare dimensional changes in ridge height and width after grafting with these two materials. MATERIALS Forty patients were randomly divided into two groups of 20. Extraction sockets were filled with either FDBA or DFDBA. To minimize variables associated with the organ donor and with tissue processing, all of the graft material was procured from a single donor; the only difference in the two materials was the percentage mineralization of the final bone graft. A 2-mm-diameter core biopsy was taken from each grafted site ≈19 weeks after grafting. Histomorphometric analysis was performed to determine percentage of vital bone, residual graft particles, and connective tissue (CT)/other non-bone components. RESULTS There were no significant differences when comparing changes in alveolar ridge dimensions of the two groups. There was no significant difference in percentage CT/other between groups. DFDBA had a significantly greater percentage of vital bone at 38.42% versus FDBA at 24.63%. The DFDBA group also had a significantly lower mean percentage of residual graft particles at 8.88% compared to FDBA at 25.42%. CONCLUSION This study provides the first histologic and clinical evidence directly comparing ridge preservation with DFDBA versus FDBA in humans and demonstrates significantly greater new bone formation with DFDBA.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to identify the exact mechanism(s) by which cytoskeletal structures are modulated during bone resorption. In this study, we have shown the possible role of different actin-binding and signaling proteins in the regulation of sealing ring formation. Our analyses have demonstrated a significant increase in cortactin and a corresponding decrease in L-plastin protein levels in osteoclasts subjected to bone resorption for 18 h in the presence of RANKL, M-CSF, and native bone particles. Time-dependent changes in the localization of L-plastin (in actin aggregates) and cortactin (in the sealing ring) suggest that these proteins may be involved in the initial and maturation phases of sealing ring formation, respectively. siRNA to cortactin inhibits this maturation process but not the formation of actin aggregates. Osteoclasts treated as above but with TNF-α demonstrated very similar effects as observed with RANKL. Osteoclasts treated with a neutralizing antibody to TNF-α displayed podosome-like structures in the entire subsurface and at the periphery of osteoclast. It is possible that TNF-α and RANKL-mediated signaling may play a role in the early phase of sealing ring configuration (i.e. either in the disassembly of podosomes or formation of actin aggregates). Furthermore, osteoclasts treated with alendronate or αv reduced the formation of the sealing ring but not actin aggregates. The present study demonstrates a novel mechanistic link between L-plastin and cortactin in sealing ring formation. These results suggest that actin aggregates formed by L-plastin independent of integrin signaling function as a core in assembling signaling molecules (integrin αvβ3, Src, cortactin, etc.) involved in the maturation process.

Abstract
OBJECT This study was designed to evaluate the bone regeneration potential of the dura mater and dura mater substitute (Durepair) in the presence of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) delivered in a collagen sponge-collagen-ceramic matrix (CCM; MasterGraft Matrix) in a large skull defect in growing canines. METHODS Forty immature male beagles were used to create two 2.5 x 4-cm cranial defects on each side of the sagittal suture. The dura mater on the left side was cut to make a 1 x 3-cm defect and replaced with bovine skin collagen (Durepair). The dura mater on the right side remained intact. Different doses of rhBMP-2 (none [8 animals], 0.11 mg/ml [4 animals], 0.21 mg/ml [4 animals], and 0.43 mg/ml [8 animals]) were infused on 2 Type I bovine absorbable collagen sponge (ACS) strips. The strips were layered with the CCM (15% hydroxyapatite [HA]/85% tricalcium phosphate [TCP]) to reconstruct both cranial defects. In a fifth group (8 animals), 0.43 mg/ml rhBMP-2 was directly infused into the CCM. Demineralized canine cancellous freeze-dried demineralized bone matrix (DBM; 8 animals) was used as a control in a sixth group. All materials were fixed under 2 resorbable protective sheets (MacroPore). Skulls were resected 16 weeks after operation. Histological and histomorphometric analyses on the percentage of the defect spanned by bone, and the percentage of residual HA-TCP granules and collagen were analyzed. RESULTS Calcified seroma was the only complication observed and only occurred in the 0.43-mg/ml rhBMP-2 groups (Groups 4 and 5). Dura mater repair appeared complete at 4 months in all animals. New bone was formed sporadically throughout the skull defect in the ACS+CCM and DBM groups without rhBMP-2. In all rhBMP-2 groups, mature new bone (compact and trabecular) was uniformly formed across the defect on both the repaired and intact dura mater sides. There was significant new compact bone formation on top of the repaired dura mater, which did not appear in the ACS+CCM and DBM groups lacking rhBMP-2. Greater HA-TCP and collagen scaffold resorption was noted in rhBMP-2 groups compared with non-rhBMP-2 groups. Statistical analysis showed there was a significantly lower percentage of bone spanning the defect in the ACS+CCM group compared with groups with rhBMP-2, with more residual HA-TCP and collagen on the repaired dura mater side than the intact dura mater side (p < 0.05). In all rhBMP-2 groups, there were no significant differences in new bone formation between the repaired and intact dura mater sides (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The ACS+CCM combination had an effect similar to demineralized bone-on-bone regeneration in craniofacial reconstruction. The addition of rhBMP-2 to CCM directly or with ACS induces mature new bone formation in large cranial defects both in the presence of intact dura mater and repaired dura mater.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the in vitro effect of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-7 (rhBMP-7) combined with demineralised freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) and an inorganic bovine material with a synthetic peptide (PepGen P-15) on human periodontal ligament (hPDL) cell differentiation, in a time-dependent manner. hPDL cells were cultured and treated with: (1) 500 ng/ml of rhBMP-7, (2) 10 mg of DFDBA or PepGen P-15 and (3) their combination. Cell differentiation was estimated after 48 and 72 h by measuring alkaline phosphatase (ALPase) activity and osteocalcin (OC) secretion. The presence of rhBMP-7, DFDBA, PepGen P-15, rhBMP-7 + DFDBA and rhBMP-7+ PepGen P-15 promoted a significant increase of ALPase activity after 48 and 72 h. The combination of rhBMP-7 with DFDBA or PepGen P-15 did not lead to significant OC secretion. The results of this study imply that rhBMP-7 stimulates the early osteoblastic differentiation of hPDL cells and that DFDBA and PepGen P-15 could serve as carriers for rhBMP-7.

Abstract
Allograft is frequently used in orthopaedic and trauma surgery. On top of safety issues its biological activity is limited also due to processing. Consequently, the combination of allograft with osteoinductive substances may increase its effectiveness and decrease failure rates. In particular Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) seem to be a promising partner for clinical applications. This overview focuses on the combined application of allograft/BMPs. Current points of view from available literature are summarized.

Abstract
Although massive allografts are widely used for reconstruction of critical defects in long bones caused by tumor or trauma, many will have inadequate long-term outcomes. Toward a tissue engineering solution to this problem, we developed experimental stem cell and gene therapy adjuvants that induce angiogenesis, osteogenesis, and remodeling of the structural allografts. We present data from pilot studies to show the utility of dynamic contrast enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) to quantify vascularity after femoral osteotomy in a canine femur model and cone beam CT (CB-CT) to quantify bone volume in a patient after composite prosthetic-allograft reconstructive surgery. The results demonstrate our ability to suppress the artifacts generated by the metal implants required to secure massive allografts such that precise quantification of cortical bone revascularization (>10-fold increase at 3 weeks postoperatively) and new bone formation (accurate to about 193 mum(3)) around the graft can be performed longitudinally via DCE-MRI and CB-CT, respectively.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cranial defect reconstruction presents 2 challenges: induction of new bone formation, and providing structural support during the healing process. This study compares quantity and quality of new bone formation based on various materials and support frameworks. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighteen dogs underwent surgical removal of a significant portion of their cranial vault. Demineralized bone matrix was used to fill the defect in all animals. In 9 dogs, recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) was added, while the other 9 served as the non-rhBMP-2 group. In each group, 3 animals were fixed with cobalt chrome plates, 3 with adding platelet-rich plasma, and 3 fixed with a Lactosorb (Walter Lorenz Surgical, Inc, Jacksonville, FL) resorbable mesh. Necropsy was done at 12 weeks postoperative. Histomorphometry, density, and mechanical properties of the regenerate were analyzed. RESULTS The non-rhBMP-2 groups showed minimal substitution of demineralized bone matrix with new bone, while only sporadic remnants of demineralized bone matrix were present in the rhBMP-2 groups. The defect showed more new bone formation (P < .001) and density (P < .001) in the rhBMP-2 groups by Kruskal-Wallis test. The area of new bone was not significantly different among the rhBMP-2 subgroups. The resorbable mesh struts showed no sign of bone invasion or substitution. In the non-rhBMP-2 resorbable mesh group, demineralized bone matrix almost totally disintegrated without replacement by new bone. CONCLUSIONS The addition of rhBMP-2 to demineralized bone matrix accelerated new bone formation in large cranial defects, regardless of the supporting framework or the addition of platelet-rich plasma. The use of a resorbable mesh in such defects is advisable only if rhBMP-2 is added.

Abstract
Bone replacement grafts, including autogenous grafts from intraoral donor sites, allografts, xenografts, and alloplastic bone substitutes, are the most widely used treatment modalities for the regeneration of periodontal osseous defects. Studies suggest a favorable clinical outcome with the use of these materials in terms of improvements in periodontal probing depths, probing attachment gains, and bone fill. In terms of bone fill, most studies report more than 50% resolution of intrabony defects when treated with bone replacement grafts. However, histologic evidence of periodontal regeneration, including new bone, periodontal ligament, and cementum, has been reported only for autogenous bone grafts and demineralized freeze-dried bone allografts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is unclear whether platelet-rich plasma is a clinically effective adjunct to osteoinductive agents such as demineralized bone matrix. It contains platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), which decreases osteoinduction by human demineralized bone matrix in nude-mouse muscle, suggesting that platelet-rich plasma may also have a negative impact. This study tested the hypothesis that platelet-rich plasma reduces demineralized bone matrix-induced bone formation and that this effect varies with donor-dependent differences in platelet-rich plasma and demineralized bone matrix. METHODS Human platelet-rich plasma was prepared from blood from six men (average age [and standard error of the mean], 29.2 +/- 2.4 years). Platelet numbers were determined, and growth factors were quantified before and after platelet activation. Human demineralized bone matrix from two donors (demineralized bone matrix-1 and demineralized bone matrix-2) was mixed with activated platelet-rich plasma and was implanted bilaterally in the gastrocnemius muscle in eighty male nude mice (eight implants per variable). Fifty-six days after implantation, the hindlimb calf muscles were harvested for histological analysis. Osteoinduction was evaluated with use of a qualitative score and morphometric measurements of ossicle size, new bone formation, and residual demineralized bone matrix. RESULTS Compared with platelet-poor plasma, platelet-rich plasma preparations exhibited a fourfold increase in the platelet count, a fifteenfold increase in the amount of transforming growth factor-beta, a sixfold increase in the amount of PDGF-BB, a fivefold increase in the amount of PDGF-AA, and a twofold increase in the amount of PDGF-AB. Demineralized bone matrix-1 was more osteoinductive than demineralized bone matrix-2, as determined on the basis of a greater ossicle area. The effect of platelet-rich plasma was either neutral or inhibitory depending on the demineralized bone matrix batch. When used with demineralized bone matrix-1, platelet-rich plasma did not alter the qualitative score or overall ossicle size, but it decreased the new bone area. When used with demineralized bone matrix-2, platelet-rich plasma reduced the qualitative score, ossicle area, and new bone area and increased the amount of residual demineralized bone matrix. The effects on osteoinduction also varied with the donor of the platelet-rich plasma. CONCLUSIONS Platelet-rich plasma decreased the osteoinductivity of demineralized bone matrix implanted in immunocom-promised mice, and the activities of both demineralized bone matrix and platelet-rich plasma were donor-dependent.

[PMID: 17197333 DOI: 10.1016/j.spinee.2006.04.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 94] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2006] [Revised: 03/23/2006] [Accepted: 04/07/2006] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND CONTEXT Recombinant growth factors bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) and BMP-7 are currently approved for human use but are associated with various adverse effects including ectopic bone formation and local inflammatory reaction. The development of alternative growth factors may help minimize the adverse effects of current osteoinductive therapeutics. Nell-1 (Nel-like molecule-1; Nel [a protein strongly expressed in neural tissue encoding epidermal growth factor like domain]) is a novel secretory molecule that appears to act more specifically on osteoblasts than the BMPs, which can act on multiple cell types. From a molecular point of view, Nell-1 is directly regulated by runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2/Cbfa1), a master regulatory gene controlling bone formation. Previous studies showed that Nell-1 accelerates osteogenic differentiation in vitro and calvarial bone formation in vivo. We hypothesize that Nell-1 may also effectively form bone in spinal fusion. PURPOSE Our primary aim was to assess if direct adenoviral gene delivery with Nell-1 in a demineralized bone matrix (DBM) carrier can improve spinal fusion in a rat model. Because adenoviral vectors allow for sustained growth factor delivery, they were used for initial feasibility testing before protein studies. STUDY DESIGN/SETTING Two groups of 20 athymic rats underwent posterolateral intertransverse process spinal fusion at L4-L5 with implanted DBM carrier containing either adenovirus coding for Nell-1 (AdNell-1) or control, Lac Z (AdLacZ). No cells were implanted. The 20 rats were sacrificed at 6 weeks for evaluation of spinal fusion. METHODS All animals underwent Faxitron radiographs at 2, 4, and 6 weeks, manual spine palpation at 6 weeks, and high-resolution micro computerized tomography (microCT) at 6 weeks. Spinal fusion rate was assessed by: 1) 6-week Faxitron images; 2) manual palpation by three independent observers; 3) microCT; and 4) histology. New bone formation was assessed by hematoxylin-eosin and Masson trichrome staining on decalcified, coronally sectioned spine segments. RESULTS All differences achieved statistical significance. After 6 weeks, direct application of adenoviral Nell-1 in a DBM carrier achieved significantly higher rates of spinal fusion over Lac Z controls: 60% Nell-1 versus 20% Lac Z by manual palpation and 70% Nell-1 versus 20% Lac Z by microCT and histology. Histological assessment of bone quality and maturity revealed more mature, higher quality bone in all the Nell-1 treated specimens relative to Lac Z at 6 weeks. CONCLUSIONS Spinal fusion is more accurately assessed by microCT and histology than manual palpation. Direct application of adenoviral Nell-1 in a DBM carrier achieved significantly higher rates of spinal fusion over Lac Z controls at 6 weeks. Direct application of adenoviral Nell-1 in a DBM carrier also achieved significantly higher rates of spinal fusion over other reports in the literature using direct adenoviral BMP application. Direct application of adenoviral BMP in an allograft carrier achieved 8% fusion for BMP-2 and 16% fusion for BMP-7 at 8 weeks. These results indicate that Nell-1 may be a potent osteoinductive molecule. In addition, the regulation of Nell-1 by the master bone regulatory gene, Runx2 suggests that Nell-1 may exert its effects more specifically in osteoblastic cells than BMPs which affect multiple cell types. Overall, Nell-1 may fulfil a current need for an osteoinductive factor.

Abstract
The osteoinduction potential of human demineralized bone matrix (DBM) in females with low estrogen (E2) is unknown. Moreover, the osteoinductivity of commercial human DBM is tested in male athymic rats and mice, but DBM performance in these animals may not reflect performance in female animals or provide information on E2's role in the process. To gain insight, human DBM was implanted bilaterally in the gastrocnemius of twenty-four athymic female mice (10 mg/implant) and twenty-four athymic female rats (15 mg/implant). Eight animals in each group were sham-operated (SHAM), ovariectomized (OVX), or ovariectomized with E2-replacement (OVX+E2) via subcutaneous slow release capsules of 17beta-estradiol. OVX and OVX+E2 animals were pair-fed to SHAM animals. Four animals from each group were euthanized at 35 days and four at 56 days. Animal weight, uterine weight, and blood estrogen levels confirmed that pair feeding, ovariectomy, and E2 replacement were successful. Histological sections of implanted tissues were evaluated qualitatively for absence or presence of DBM, ossicle formation, and new bone or cartilage using a previously developed qualitative scoring system (QS) and by histomorphometry to obtain a quantitative assessment of osteoinduction. OVX mice had a small but significant QS decrease at 35 days compared to SHAM mice, confirmed by quantitative measurement of ossicle, marrow space, and new bone areas. The QS in rats was not affected by OVX but histomorphometry showed decreased new bone in OVX rats, which was restored by E2. The QS indicated that the number of new bone sites was not reduced by OVX in rats or mice at 56 days, but the relative amount of new bone v. marrow space was affected and differed with animal species. Residual DBM was less in OVX animals, indicating that DBM resorption was affected. Cartilage was present in rats but not in mice, suggesting that endochondral ossification was slower and indicating that bone graft studies in these species are not necessarily comparable. These results show the importance of E2 in human DBM-induced bone formation and suggest that E2 may be needed for clinical effectiveness in post-menopausal women.

Abstract
Reconstruction of the atrophic maxilla is a difficult task. The gold standard for such reconstruction is autogenous bone. Presently, many excellent products are available to the dental surgeon to facilitate alveolar reconstruction in the absence of autogenous bone. This study describes the use of bone morphogenic protein in combination with allogenic bone substitute (Puros) to reconstruct the maxilla in preparation for dental implant placement.

Abstract
These studies evaluated whether F2A4-K-NS, a peptide mimetic of FGF-2, could augment ectopic bone production following the subcutaneous implant of human demineralized bone matrix (DBM). DBM was formulated into a gel with and without F2A4-K-NS, and injected subcutaneously into athymic rats. After 28 days the resultant tissue was excised and fixed. The tissue was examined with soft X-rays and microcomputerized tomography (micro-CT), and by histological methods. Inclusion of F2A4-K-NS with DBM resulted in an increased mineral deposition as determined by soft X-ray and micro-CT analysis and von Kossa staining. DBM-containing tissues showed extensive mineralization compared to the carrier alone, which was poorly mineralized. The mineralization was qualitatively and quantitatively the most extensive in the samples containing F2A4-K-NS plus DBM. Additionally, the highest amount of von Kossa staining for calcium was observed in tissues from animals that had received DBM plus F2A4-K-NS. In these studies, 100 ng of peptide per 0.2 mL of injectable DBM gel generated the most optimal results. The synthetic peptide F2A4-K-NS augmented DBM-induced ectopic mineralization in athymic animals.

Abstract
Subantral sinus augmentation is often necessary to permit placement of endosseous implants. Recent efforts to improve wound healing have focused on autogenous sources of bioactive mediators, such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP), which offer the potential to enhance the biological activity of bone replacement grafts. The purpose of this randomized, single-blinded, controlled study was to compare bone formation after subantral maxillary sinus augmentation with freeze-dried bone allograft (FDBA) plus PRP versus FDBA plus resorbable membrane. Ten patients underwent bilateral maxillary subantral sinus augmentation, with sites within subjects randomized to receive FDBA plus PRP or FDBA plus membrane. Core biopsy specimens were obtained 4.5 to 6 months after the grafting procedure at time of implant placement. Histomorphometric analysis revealed a significantly higher percentage of vital tissue in sinuses after treatment with FDBA and PRP (78.8 +/- 8.3) than with FDBA and membrane (63.0 +/- 15.7). Moreover, the percentage of bone formation in sinuses augmented with the combination of FDBA plus PRP (33.3 +/- 11.3) was nonsignificantly (P </= 0.10) higher than in sinuses grafted with FDBA plus membrane (26.5 +/- 6.8). Residual graft particles constituted a significantly higher percentage of the regenerate in sinuses treated with FDBA plus membrane than in sinuses augmented with FDBA plus PRP (37.0 +/- 15.7) versus (21.2 +/- 8.3, respectively). When comparing the relative proportion of vital bone to residual graft particles, a significant difference also was observed between sinuses treated with FDBA and membrane compared with sinuses augmented with FDBA and PRP (0.98 +/- 0.77 versus 1.82 +/- 0.88, respectively). The results of this study suggest that the combination of FDBA and PRP enhances the rate of formation of bone compared with FDBA and membrane, when used in subantral sinus augmentation. Future research is needed to determine the clinical significance and the cost- and risk-benefit considerations of the approach.

Abstract
A correlation between extractable bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) in demineralized bone matrix (DBM) and osteoinduction has been suggested. Extractable BMP-4 and osteoinductivity of DBM from 40 donors were assessed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and in vivo athymic mouse assay, respectively. Extractable BMP-4 level averaged 3.7 +/- 0.21 ng/g of DBM and correlated with osteoinductivity of the DBM in an in vivo assessment of induced newbone formation.

Abstract
The field of tissue engineering integrates the latest advances in molecular biology, biochemistry, engineering, material science, and medical transplantation. Researchers in the developing field of regenerative medicine have identified bone tissue engineering as an attractive translational target. Clinical problems requiring bone regeneration are diverse, and no single regeneration approach will likely resolve all defects. Recent advances in the field of tissue engineering have included the use of sophisticated biocompatible scaffolds, new postnatal multipotent cell populations, and the appropriate cellular stimulation. In particular, synthetic polymer scaffolds allow for fast and reproducible construction, while still retaining biocompatible characteristics. These criteria relate to the immediate goal of determining the ideal implant. The search is becoming a reality with widespread availability of biocompatible scaffolds; however, the desired parameters have not been clearly defined. Currently, most research focuses on the use of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), specifically BMP-2 and BMP-7. These proteins induce osteogenic differentiation in vitro, as well as bone defect healing in vivo. Protein-scaffold interactions that enhance BMP binding are of the utmost importance, since prolonged BMP release creates the most osteogenic microenvironment. Transition into clinical studies has had only mild success and relies on large doses of BMPs for bone formation. Advances within the field of bone tissue engineering will likely overcome these challenges and lead to more clinically relevant therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A recent study suggests that the addition of enamel matrix derivative to demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft may enhance osseoinduction. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) in combination with enamel matrix derivative (EMD + DFDBA) compared to enamel matrix derivative (EMD) alone in the treatment of human intrabony periodontal defects. METHODS Forty patients with a total of 67 sites (intrabony defect > or = 3 mm deep) were selected to participate in this single-masked, parallel design, randomized, controlled clinical trial. Each subject received either EMD alone (34 sites) or in combination with DFDBA (33 sites). Soft tissue measurements included probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), and recession. Hard tissue measurements included defect depth, alveolar crestal resorption, and defect morphology. Following 6 months of healing, all soft tissue measurements were repeated. Forty-nine sites (EMD + DFDBA = 26 sites, EMD alone = 23 sites) were surgically reentered. Statistical analyses were performed using unpaired and paired Student t tests. RESULTS Analyses showed a significant improvement in soft tissue parameters for both treatment groups (P < 0.001) as compared to preoperative measurements. There were no statistical differences between treatment groups. The probing depth reduction (PDR) for the EMD + DFDBA was 3.6 +/- 0.2 mm, while the EMD alone had a PDR of 4.0 +/- 0.3 mm. The CAL gain for the EMD + DFDBA group was 3.0 +/- 0.3 mm and 3.2 +/- 0.3 mm for the EMD alone group. The mean value for bone fill in the EMD + DFDBA group was 3.7 +/- 0.2 mm (74.9%), while the EMD alone group demonstrated a mean bone fill of 2.6 +/- 0.4 mm (55.3%). While there were no significant differences between the two treatments with regards to soft tissue measurements, the combination of EMD + DFDBA therapy yielded statistically significant improvements in bone fill, crestal resorption, and percentage of sites gaining greater than 50% and 90% bone fill when compared to EMD alone (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION The results of this study indicate that there may be an enhancement of hard tissue parameters when enamel matrix derivative is added to demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM The aim of this study was to investigate healing responses to demineralized freeze-dried bone powder allografts in standardized periodontal fenestration defects, compared with subcutaneous wounds in a dog model. METHODS Circular periodontal fenestration defects were created buccally at all four canines in 14 mongrel dogs. Each site received one of the following underneath a barrier membrane: (a) ethylene oxide (EO)-sterilized demineralized freeze-dried bone allografts (DFDBA), (b) heat-treated DFDBA, (c) non-sterilized DFDBA and (d) ungrafted control. Twelve of the 14 dogs had three subcutaneous chest wall pouches created and one of the three DFDBA materials placed in each. The animals were necropsied at 4 weeks. Histologic sections were prepared through the center of the fenestration sites in an apico-coronal direction. Quantitative analysis using computer-assisted imaging technique was performed. Subcutaneous implants were evaluated histologically and quantified for associated inflammatory cell infiltrate. RESULTS Fenestration defects healed by partial osseous fill and cementum regeneration with formation of a periodontal ligament. The graft particles generally appeared isolated from the site of osteogenesis and covered by cementum-like substance. Graft particles incorporated into newly formed bone at a distance from the root surface was the exception. No statistically significant differences in new bone formation were observed between treatment groups within animals, but significant inter-animal variation was found (p<0.01). Quantities of retained graft particles were limited, and without cellular resorption. A bone augmentation effect was associated with the barrier in the majority of sites. No bone formation was evident at the subcutaneous sites where graft particles displayed distinctly modified surface zones and multinucleated giant cell resorption. Significantly more inflammatory infiltrate was associated with EO-sterilized grafts compared with heat-treated grafts (p=0.05). CONCLUSION Implantation of DFDBA neither enhanced osseous healing in periodontal fenestration defects, nor resulted in ectopic bone induction. DFDBA particles implanted in either periodontal fenestration or subcutaneous wounds evoked distinctly different healing responses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone replacement grafts (BRG) are widely used in the treatment of periodontal osseous defects; however, the clinical benefits of this therapeutic practice require further clarification through a systematic review of randomized controlled studies. RATIONALE The purpose of this systematic review is to access the efficacy of bone replacement grafts in proving demonstrable clinical improvements in periodontal osseous defects compared to surgical debridement alone. FOCUSED QUESTION What is the effect of bone replacement grafts compared to other interventions on clinical, radiographic, adverse, and patient-centered outcomes in patients with periodontal osseous defects? SEARCH PROTOCOL The computerized bibliographical databases MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched from 1966 and 1974, respectively, to October 2002 for randomized controlled studies in which bone replacement grafts were compared to other surgical interventions in the treatment of periodontal osseous defects. The search strategy included screening of review articles and reference lists of retrieved articles as well as hand searches of selected journals. INCLUSION CRITERIA All searches were limited to human studies in English language publications. EXCLUSION CRITERIA Non-randomized observational studies (e.g., case reports, case series), publications providing summary statistics without variance estimates or data to permit computation, and studies without BRG intervention alone were excluded. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS The therapeutic endpoints examined included changes in bone level, clinical attachment level, probing depth, gingival recession, and crestal resorption. For purposes of meta-analysis, change in bone level (bone fill) was used as the primary outcome measure, measured upon surgical re-entry or transgingival probing (sounding). MAIN RESULTS 1. Forty-nine controlled studies met eligibility criteria and provided clinical outcome data on intrabony defects following grafting procedures. 2. Seventeen studies provided clinical outcome data on BRG materials for the treatment of furcation defects. REVIEWERS' CONCLUSIONS 1. With respect to the treatment of intrabony defects, the results of meta-analysis supported the following conclusions: 1) bone grafts increase bone level, reduce crestal bone loss, increase clinical attachment level, and reduce probing depth compared to open flap debridement (OFD) procedures; 2) No differences in clinical outcome measures emerge between particulate bone allograft and calcium phosphate (hydroxyapatite) ceramic grafts; and 3) bone grafts in combination with barrier membranes increase clinical attachment level and reduce probing depth compared to graft alone. 2. With respect to the treatment of furcation defects, 15 controlled studies provided data on clinical outcomes. Insufficient studies of comparable design were available to submit data to meta-analysis. Nonetheless, outcome data from these studies generally indicated positive clinical benefits with the use of grafts in the treatment of Class II furcations. 3. With respect to histological outcome parameters, 2 randomized controlled studies provide evidence that demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) supports the formation of a new attachment apparatus in intrabony defects, whereas OFD results in periodontal repair characterized primarily by the formation of a long junctional epithelial attachment. Multiple observational studies provide consistent histological evidence that autogenous and demineralized allogeneic bone grafts support the formation of new attachment. Limited data also suggest that xenogenic bone grafts can support the formation of a new attachment apparatus. In contrast, essentially all available data indicate that alloplastic grafts support periodontal repair rather than regeneration. 4. The results of this systematic review indicate that bone replacement grafts provide demonstrable clinical improvements in periodontal osseous defects compared to surgical debridement alone.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are results suggesting that differences regarding bone-inducing potential, in terms of amount and/or rate of bone formation, exist between demineralized bone matrices (DBMs) of different embryonic origins. PURPOSE The aim of the present study was to examine whether the embryonic origin of DBM affects bone formation when used as an adjunct to guided tissue regeneration (GTR). MATERIALS AND METHODS Endomembranous (EM) and endochondral (ECH) DBMs were produced from calvarial and long bones of rats, respectively. Prior to the study the osteoinductive properties of the DBMs were confirmed in six rats following intramuscular implantation. Following surgical exposure of the mandibular ramus, a rigid hemispheric Teflon capsule loosely packed with a standardized quantity of DBM was placed with its open part facing the lateral surface of the ramus in both sides of the jaw in 30 rats. In one side of the jaw, chosen at random, the capsule was filled with EM-DBM, whereas in the other side ECH-DBM was used. Groups of 10 animals were sacrificed after healing periods of 1, 2, and 4 months, and undecalcified sections of the capsules were produced and subjected to histologic analysis and computer-assisted planimetric measurements. RESULTS During the experiment increasing amounts of newly formed bone were observed inside the capsules in both sides of the animals' jaws. Limited bone formation was observed in the 1- and 2-month specimens, but after 4 months of healing, the newly formed bone in the ECH-DBM grafted sides occupied 59.1% (range 45.6-74.7%) of the area created by the capsule versus 46.9% (range 23.0-64.0%) in the EM-DBM grafted sides (p =.01). CONCLUSION It is concluded that the embryonic origin of DBM influences bone formation by GTR and that ECH-DBM is superior to EM-DBM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Attempts to stimulate periodontal regeneration in the past have focused on either filling the defect with some type of material or providing a space for host cells to repopulate the site and elicit new tissue. In some cases, these approaches have been combined with the assumption that the filler material will help maintain the space necessary for the host cells to invade the area. Growth stimulating substances such as growth factors and other proteins have also been used to encourage periodontal tissue regeneration and histological evaluation supports the use of these substances. Thus, the role for and the necessity of a certain amount of space maintenance for periodontal regeneration is not exactly understood. In addition, it is not known if there is some critical size required for space maintenance or for exactly how long the space must be maintained in order for the host cells to stimulate new cementum, periodontal ligament, and bone. The goal of this study was to evaluate periodontal regeneration in intrabony defects of various sizes treated with a combination of enamel matrix proteins and autogenous bone graft. METHODS Periodontal defects ranging in size from 1 to 6 mm were randomized and created bilaterally beside three teeth in the mandibles of baboons. Plaque was allowed to accumulate around wire ligatures placed into the defects. After 2 months, the wire ligatures were removed, the teeth and roots scaled and root planed, and a notch was placed with a chisel at the base of the defect. On one side of the mandible, neutral ethylene diamine tetracetic acid and enamel matrix derivative (EMD) were first used to treat the defect. Autogenous bone taken from the same surgical site was treated with enamel matrix derivative in a dampen dish and then added to the EMD-treated defects. The other side of the mandible served as control with neutral ethylene diamine tetracetic acid and scaling and root planing. Flaps were sutured and the animals were allowed to heal without oral hygiene procedures. After 5 months, the animals were sacrificed and the teeth were processed for histological evaluation. RESULTS The results revealed new cementum, periodontal ligament with Sharpey's fibers, and new bone tissue similar to native periodontal tissues. Remnants of the autogenous bone chips were still present at this 5-month post-healing period. Thus periodontal regeneration occurred in all sizes of the periodontal defects. In general, EMD plus autogenous graft treatment resulted in greater tissue formation than controls. In fact, in many cases, very dramatic tissue formation occurred far coronal to the base of the defects in the EMD plus autogenous graft-treated lesions. In addition, horizontal bone fill occurred in the defects and was prominent in the 4 or 6 mm wide lesions. When evaluating the combined 1 and 2 mm defects, the height of new cementum with EMD plus graft was 3.88 mm versus 2.03 mm in the controls, a statistically significant (P < 0.005) difference. In the wider (4 and 6 mm) lesions, this difference was not significant and was much less between treated and control lesions with 2.78 and 2.57 mm of new cementum respectively. In the case of new bone height, in the smaller lesions EMD plus graft resulted in 4.00 mm new bone versus 2.22 mm in the controls, again a statistically significant (P < 0.005) difference. In the larger lesions, EMD plus autogenous bone graft had 3.24 mm new bone height compared to 2.71 mm in the controls, a difference that was not statistically significant. Additionally, in the smaller lesions, new cementum width at the level of the notch was twice as great (statistically significant, P < 0.015) in the EMD plus graft sites compared to control. The width of the periodontal ligament at the coronal aspect of the new bone tissue was similar in the smaller lesions between treated and control sites. The results from the wider defects must be interpreted cautiously as the interproximal bone heights were remodeled adjacent to the wider defects and likely limited the potential for regeneration. CONCLUSIONS The combination of enamel matrix derivative plus autogenous bone graft stimulated statistically significant periodontal regeneration in the more narrow 1 and 2 mm lesions. No statistically significant difference was observed in the wider 4 and 6 mm lesions. In many cases, dramatic amounts of new cementum, Sharpey's fibers, periodontal ligament, and bone tissue were formed far above the notch placed at the base of the contaminated defects. This was especially significant considering the width of some of the defects and the fact that no oral hygiene was performed over the 5-month healing period. This periodontal regeneration occurred in the absence of exogenous growth factors or barrier membranes. In summary, the combination of enamel matrix derivative and autogenous bone represents a therapeutic combination that can be highly effective in stimulating significant amounts of periodontal regeneration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Demineralized freeze-dried bone matrix (DFDBM) stimulates new bone formation; however, immune reactions from the residual antigens of prepared grafts might play a role in inducing osteogenesis. This study examined whether cyclosporine-A (CsA), an immunosuppressant, enhanced the DFDBM-induced new bone formation. METHODS After creating a bony defect in the posterior mandible, 40 male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups of 10 each: no graft with mineral oil (control); no graft with CsA in mineral oil; DFDBM with mineral oil; and DFDBM with CsA in mineral oil (combined therapy). CsA was administered at 2 mg/kg body weight. Five rats in each group were sacrificed at days 10 and 28 and tissue samples were taken for histological examination. RESULTS Soft tissue was observed in the defects of all animals without grafts, whereas the repaired hard tissue formed in the defects of animals with grafts. Histometery, which was performed only at day 10, revealed both DFDBM and CsA therapies produced a significant increase in the total area of repaired hard tissue. Only CsA therapy significantly increased the new bone area. Compared with the DFDBM group, the composition of the repaired hard tissue in the combined therapy group shifted; i.e., the new bone area increased but the residual particle area decreased. The cartilage formation was greater in the combined therapy group than the DFDBM group. CONCLUSION Within the limitations of this study, we suggest that the DFDBM grafts play a major role, which could be enhanced by CsA, in the induction of new bone formation, especially at an early phase.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) has been found to promote the osteoblastic differentiation of human periodontal ligament cells. Its effect depends on the delivery system used. In this study we examined the effect of rhBMP-2 on the proliferation and osteoblastic differentiation of human periodontal ligament cells cultured alone or with 3 different bone allografts. METHODS The rhBMP-2 effect on cell proliferation and osteoblastic differentiation was examined by measuring [3H] thymidine incorporation and ALPase activity, respectively, on human periodontal ligament (hPDL) cells. Two human demineralized freeze-dried allografts of cortical (DFDBAco) and cancellous (DFBDAca) bone origin and 1 non-demineralized freeze-dried allograft (FDBA) of cancellous bone origin, derived from different tissue banks, were used to evaluate the rhBMP-2 effect on cell osteoblastic differentiation. The measurements were taken on various days. RESULTS rhBMP-2 decreased hPDL cell proliferation. rhBMP-2 acted on the third day of the process of cell differentiation, had a specific time of action, achieved its peak effect on the fourth and fifth days, and then did not provoke any further effects. The 3 bone allografts were efficiently combined with rhBMP-2. The combination of rhBMP-2 and DFDBAco showed the effect with the longest duration. rhBMP-2, on day 4, made the inactive bone allograft more active while, on the other days, its effect was dependent on the allograft alone. CONCLUSIONS rhBMP-2 promotes the osteoblastic differentiation of human periodontal ligament cells and decreases cell proliferation. In this study rhBMP-2 in the presence of the bone allografts tested resulted in hPDL cell differentiation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Therapeutic approaches to periodontal regeneration in the past have utilized bone replacement grafts, growth factors, barrier membranes, or combinations of these approaches. More recently, enamel extracellular matrix proteins have been introduced to stimulate periodontal regeneration. One factor thought to have an impact on the outcome of the regenerative process is the initial size of the periodontal defect. This is particularly the case when using proteins to stimulate regeneration, because the concepts of guided tissue regeneration emphasize the need for space maintenance to allow for selected cell repopulation. The goal of this study was to evaluate periodontal regeneration in intrabony defects of various sizes treated with enamel matrix proteins. METHODS Periodontal defects ranging in size from 1 to 6 mm were created bilaterally around 3 teeth in the mandibles of baboons. Plaque was allowed to accumulate around ligatures placed into the defects. After 2 months, the ligatures were removed, the teeth were scaled and root planed, and a notch was placed at the base of the defect. On one side of the mandible, neutral ethylene diamine tetracetic acid and enamel matrix proteins were used to treat the defects. The other side served as a control, with neutral ethylene diamine tetracetic acid treatment alone after scaling and root planing. Flaps were sutured and the animals were allowed to heal without oral hygiene procedures. After 5 months, the animals were sacrificed and the teeth were processed for histological evaluation. RESULTS Periodontal regeneration occurred in all sizes of the periodontal defects. Qualitatively, new cementum, periodontal ligament with Sharpey's fibers, and new bone tissue were observed. In general, enamel matrix protein treatment resulted in greater tissue formation than controls. In many instances, dramatic tissue formation occurred far coronal to the base of the defects. In addition, horizontal bone fill occurred in defects that were initially 4 or 6 mm wide. The resultant width of the periodontal ligament was similar in all defects regardless of the original defect width. The cementum width was slightly greater in the wider (4 and 6 mm) defects compared to the more narrow (1 and 2 mm) defects. When evaluating the combined 1 and 2 mm defects, the height of new cementum with enamel matrix protein treatment was 45% greater than the control, with 31% greater new bone height versus the control. In the combined wider defects (4 and 6 mm), new tissue height was more similar between enamel matrix protein-treated defects and control defects. The results from the wider defects must be interpreted cautiously, because the interproximal bone heights were resorbed more adjacent to the wider defects during the plaque accumulation period and likely limited the potential for regeneration. CONCLUSIONS The treatment of various sized periodontal defects with enamel matrix proteins stimulated substantial periodontal regeneration. In many cases, dramatic amounts of new cementum, Sharpey's fibers, periodontal ligament, and bone tissue were formed far coronal to the notch at the base of the defect, especially considering the width of the original defects. This periodontal regeneration occurred in the absence of exogenous growth factors, bone replacement grafts, barrier membranes, or their combination.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endosseous dental implants with rough surfaces have been designed to improve early healing, especially in areas of poor bone or insufficient bone quantity. The aim of this study was to histomorphometrically assess the bone-to-implant contact on 3 different rough-surfaced implants following guided bone regeneration. METHODS Mandibular premolars and first molars were extracted in 12 dogs, and healing was allowed for 6 months. Six implant osteotomy sites were prepared, 3 per side, followed by the creation of 7.3 mm wide by 5 mm deep surgical defects in the coronal section of the osteotomy sites. Ten-mm long titanium screw-type implants with titanium plasma-sprayed (TPS), hydroxyapatite-coated (HA), or acid-etched (AE) surfaces were placed; the surrounding defects were filled with canine demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft; implants/grafts were covered with expanded polytetrafluoroethylene membranes; and the tissue was closed. Following a healing period of 4 months, the animals were sacrificed and mandibular blocks were harvested for histomorphometric analysis. RESULTS The mean percentage of bone-to-implant contact in the defect and non-defect areas for the different implant surfaces was: AE 16.24% defect, and 28.78% non-defect; TPS 25.08% defect, and 16.96% non-defect; and HA 48.25% defect and 26.60% non-defect. Within the defect, the mean difference in the bone-to-implant contact was significant for HA compared to TPS (P < 0.0001) and HA versus AE (P < 0.0001); TPS versus AE was not significant (P = 0.063). In the non-defect areas, the mean difference in the bone-to-implant contact was significant for AE versus TPS (P = 0.010); all other comparisons were not significant. There were 18 membrane exposures in the 72 implant sites. Data were analyzed again to assess the impact of membrane complications. Using a 1-way analysis of variance, the bone-to-implant contact was compared between the sites with and without membrane complications. No significant differences were seen in the defect areas or in the non-defect areas between the sites with and without membrane complications. CONCLUSION In this study, the bone-to-implant contact in regenerated bone was greatest when an HA-coated implant was used.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several studies have documented the role of growth factors in periodontal regeneration. It has been shown that platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is a potent stimulator of human periodontal ligament (PDL) cells. A variety of bone graft materials are used to treat osseous defects caused by periodontal disease. We evaluated the mitogenic effect of PDGF on human PDL cells cultured with different allografts to determine which of the allografts with or without PDGF promoted periodontal regeneration. METHODS Two human demineralized freeze-dried allografts of cortical (DFDBA) and cancellous (DFBA) bone and a non-demineralized freeze-dried allograft (FBA) from cancellous bone were used alone or supplemented with PDGF-BB. Human PDL cultures were derived from the mid-root of 2 maxillary premolars extracted for orthodontic reasons. Cells were grown separately in 24-well dishes with or without 20 mg of each bone allograft. On day 2 of quiescence, new medium was added with 10 ng/ml of PDGF-BB. DNA synthesis was estimated by measuring [3H] thymidine incorporation to determine the effects of the test agents on cell proliferation. Cells were processed and subjected to scintillation counting after 48 hours of incubation. Counts per minute (cpm/well) were determined for each sample. RESULTS There was no statistically significant difference (P<0.05) on PDL cell proliferation when the allografts were used alone. PDL cells exhibited significantly greater proliferative responses to the 2 demineralized bone allografts, DFDBA and DFBA, when combined with PDGF-BB. A statistically significant difference on DNA synthesis was noticed when PDGF-BB was added to PDL cells cultured with FBA. PDL cells displayed no significant increase in mitogenic activity when cultured with PDGF-BB alone. CONCLUSIONS The findings of this study demonstrate the beneficial role of DFDBA, DFBA, and FBA as synergic agents with PDGF-BB to periodontal regeneration. The significant ability of the 2 decalcified bone allografts, DFDBA and DFBA, combined with PDGF to stimulate PDL cell proliferation might be a useful adjunct in the treatment of periodontal defects.
