Background aimsThe aim of this study was to evaluate the paracrine effects of canine umbilical cord blood (cUCB) mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) mixed with β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) on bone regeneration in ectopic implantation.Methodsβ-TCP mixed with cUCB MSC (UCB-MSC group), cell lysates (cell lysate group) or a control (control group) were respectively implanted in a subcutaneous pouches in the back of beagle dogs. The implants were harvested 1, 4, 7, 14, 28, 56, 84 days after implantation. Histological findings and stain analyzes of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRACP) and assays of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and TRACP were evaluated. The mRNA expression levels of interleukin-1 (IL-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) were analyzed using semi-quantitative reverse transcription - polymerase chain reactions (RT-PCR). An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to confirm the protein expression levels of IL-6, COX-2, VEGF and TGF-β.ResultsTRACP-positive cells were observed in all groups 7 days after implantation. ALP and TRACP activities in the UCB-MSC group 84 days after implantation were significantly higher than those of the control (P>0.05). Histologic findings after 84 days showed that the osteoid matrix area in the UCB-MSC group was significantly larger than that of the control (P<0.05). The mRNAs levels of IL-1, IL-6 and VEGF in UCB-MSC and cell lysate groups on day 1 were up-regulated compared with the control. The protein levels of IL-6 and VEGF in the UCB-MSC group at day 1 were significantly higher than that of the other groups (P<0.05).ConclusionsIt is suggested that a significant release of cytokines by cUCB MSC, 1 day following implantation, could enhance bone regeneration.
