In order to achieve bone repair, bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) is typically delivered in non-physiological doses and can result in significant adverse side effects. To reduce the amount of BMP-2 necessary for bone formation, we delivered a known chemokine (stromal cell derived factor-1α, SDF-1α) in combination with BMP-2 using proteolytically degradable hydrogels. A critical-sized calvarial defect was used to determine the effect of biomolecule delivery on bone formation in vivo. The treatment group with combined SDF-1α and BMP-2 hydrogel delivery showed significantly higher bone formation when compared to hydrogels loaded with the same BMP-2 or SDF-1α concentrations alone, suggesting the combined delivery of both biomolecules synergistically improves osteogenesis.
为了实现骨修复,骨形态发生蛋白-2(BMP-2)通常以非生理剂量递送,并且会导致显著的不良副作用。为了减少骨形成所需的BMP-2量,我们使用可蛋白水解降解的水凝胶将一种已知的趋化因子(基质细胞衍生因子-1α,SDF-1α)与BMP-2联合递送。使用临界尺寸的颅骨缺损来确定生物分子递送对体内骨形成的影响。与单独加载相同BMP-2或SDF-1α浓度的水凝胶相比,联合递送SDF-1α和BMP-2水凝胶的治疗组显示出显著更高的骨形成,这表明两种生物分子的联合递送协同改善了骨生成。
