BMP-2 is one of the most important growth factors of bone regeneration. Polylactide-co-glycolic acid (PLGA), which is used as a biodegradable scaffold for delivering therapeutic agents, has been intensively investigated. In previous studies, we synthesized a novel BMP-2-related peptide (designated P24) and found that it could enhance the osteoblastic differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs). The objective of this study was to construct a biomimetic composite by incorporating P24 into a modified PLGA-(PEG-ASP)n copolymer to promote bone formation. In vitro, our results demonstrated that PLGA-(PEG-ASP)n scaffolds were shown to be an efficient system for sustained release of P24. Significantly more BMSCs attached to the P24/PLGA-(PEG-ASP)n and PLGA-(PEG-ASP)n membranes than to PLGA, and the cells in the two groups subsequently proliferated more vigorously than those in the PLGA group. The expression of osteogenic markers in P24/PLGA-(PEG-ASP)n group was stronger than that in the PLGA-(PEG-ASP)n and PLGA groups. Radiographic and histological examination, Western blotting and RT-PCR showed that P24/PLGA-(PEG-ASP)n scaffold could induce more effective ectopic bone formation in vivo, as compared with PLGA-(PEG-ASP)n or gelatin sponge alone. It is concluded that the PLGA-(PEG-ASP)n copolymer is a good P24 carrier and can serve as a good scaffold for controlled release of P24. This novel P24/PLGA-(PEG-ASP)n composite promises to be an excellent biomaterial for inducing bone regeneration.
The modified biomimetic PLGA-(PEG-ASP)n copolymer was a good scaffold for controlled release of synthetic BMP-2-related peptide, and this novel composite is a promising composite biomaterial for bone tissue engineering.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
