Bone defects are a common challenge in clinic, usually warranting bone grafts. However, current strategies to obtain effective graft materials have many drawbacks. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based therapy is a promising alternative. We designed an innovative appliance named the stem cell screen-enrich-combine(-biomaterials) circulating system (SECCS). In this study, 42 patients who required bone graft underwent SECCS-based treatment. Their bone marrow samples and beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) granules were processed in the SECCS for 10-15 minutes, to produce MSC/β-TCP composites. These composites were grafted back into bone defect sites. The results showed 85.53% ± 7.95% autologous MSCs were successfully screened, enriched, and seeded on the β-TCP scaffolds synchronously. The cell viability remained unchanged after SECCS processing. Clinically, all patients obtained satisfactory bone healing. Thus, without in vitro culture, the SECCS can produce bioactive MSC/β-TCP composites for bone regeneration during surgery. The SECCS represents a convenient, rapid, low-cost, and safe method for bone regeneration.
骨缺损是临床上常见的挑战,通常需要进行骨移植。然而,目前获取有效移植材料的策略存在诸多缺点。基于间充质干细胞(MSC)的治疗是一种有前景的替代方法。我们设计了一种名为干细胞筛选-富集-结合(-生物材料)循环系统(SECCS)的创新装置。在本研究中,42名需要骨移植的患者接受了基于SECCS的治疗。他们的骨髓样本和β-磷酸三钙(β-TCP)颗粒在SECCS中处理10-15分钟,以制备MSC/β-TCP复合材料。这些复合材料被移植回骨缺损部位。结果显示,85.53%±7.95%的自体间充质干细胞被成功筛选、富集并同步接种到β-TCP支架上。经过SECCS处理后,细胞活力保持不变。临床上,所有患者均获得了满意的骨愈合。因此,无需体外培养,SECCS就能在手术过程中生产用于骨再生的生物活性MSC/β-TCP复合材料。SECCS是一种方便、快速、低成本且安全的骨再生方法。
