    Notes: Summary When demineralized bone matrix powder is implanted subcutaneously in the rat, the early responses involve the appearance and proliferation of mesenchymal cells at the site of implantation, followed by cartilage and bone formation. The ability of cells to migrate to the implant suggests that chemotaxis may be a critical event in this process. Therefore, using the modified Boyden chamber assay, we tested extracts of demineralized bone matrix for chemotactic activity. We have identified and partially purified, on molecular sieve chromatography, a heat labile and trypsin-sensitive protein (Mr=60,000–70,000) that is a potent chemoattractant for mouse calvaria, osteoblast-like cells (MMB-1), but not for monocytes (putative osteoclast precursors). These findings suggest that chemotactic protein(s) have a significant role in the recruitment of osteoprogenitor cells to a site of bone repair.

    Changes in proline synthetic and degradative enzymes during matrix-induced cartilage and bone formation (1979)

    Notes: Summary Proline biosynthetic and degradative enzymes are unevenly distributed in differentiated mammalian tissues. Activities of the synthetic enzymes are relatively high in collagenous tissues, whereas activities of the degradative enzymes are high in noncollagenous tissues. In order to further characterize tissue-specific proline biosynthesis and degradation, we have determined proline enzyme activities during cartilage and bone formation induced by demineralized bone matrix. We can thus follow temporal changes in enzyme activity in a single tissue as different cell types develop. Ornithine aminotransferase and pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase have peaks of activity which correlate with maximal type II collagen synthesis by chondrocytes. Both enzymes also are active during bone formation. In contrast, proline oxidase and pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase are present at low levels and do not change as new cell types appear. Arginase activity peaks during the first 3 days and then rapidly decreases by the time cartilage and bone formation begin. These observations further substantiate the importance of proline biosynthesis in collagenous tissues. The close correlation between ornithine aminotransferase activity and type II collagen synthesis suggests that the pathway from ornithine to proline may be especially important during formation of type II collagen.

    Influence of magnesium depletion on matrix-induced endochondral bone formation (1979)

    Notes: Summary The effect of magnesium deficiency on bone cell differentiation and bone formation was investigated using in vivo matrix-induced endochondral ossification as a test system. Demineralized bone matrix was implanted subcutaneously in young (35-day-old) male Long-Evans rats that had been fed a semisynthetic Mg-deficient diet (50 ppm Mg) for 7 days. Plasma Mg levels were reduced to 25–30% of control values at that time. Control rats were pairfed the same diet, supplemented to contain 1000 ppm Mg. The implants were harvested 7, 9, 11, 15, and 20 days after implantation and analyzed for Mg and Ca content,45Ca incorporation, and alkaline phosphatase levels. At each stage, plaques (implants) removed from Mg-deficient rats showed retardation in cartilage and bone differentiation and matrix calcification. Magnesium content was markedly reduced when compared to the control plaques. Histological appearance of the matrix-induced plaques confirmed the retardation in bone development and mineralization suggested by the chemical indicators. Most marked was the virtual absence of bone marrow in 20-day-old plaques in Mg-depleted rats. These data show that bone cell differentiation can occur in a severely Mg-depleted environment, although the onset of mineralization and bone remodeling was delayed and bone marrow differentiation was impaired.

    The functional equivalence of demineralized bone and tooth matrices in ectopic bone induction (1993)

    Notes: The objective of this study was to determine whether demineralized rat incisor matrices were a more potent inducer of ectopic endochondral bone formation than demineralized diaphyseal bone matrices derived from the same donors. Twenty-five-milligram disks of demineralized bone or tooth matrix obtained from adolescent Long-Evans rats were implanted in a standardized ectopic site. Biochemical and histometric measurements of bone formation revealed that the two matrices were functionally equivalent inducers of endochondral bone formation. The induced pellicle of bone reached a maturation point 18 days after implantation. Dentin matrix implants generated a significantly greater amount of mineralized tissue than did bone matrix implants. This difference could be explained on the basis of remineralization of the dentin particles to a greater degree than the bone matrix particles. Initial observations suggesting a more robust osteoinductive activity in demineralized incisor matrix can be attributed to the decreasing activity of bone matrix from older donors when compared to younger donors. The extent of osteoinduction by the two substrata was equivalent when the matrices were matched for age. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The sequential cellular reactions in the interface of collagenous bone matrix implants are described. The multistep cascade in response to bone matrix implantation include: binding of fibrin and fibronectin to the implanted matrix, chemotaxis of cells, proliferation of fibroblasts, differentiation into chondroblasts, cartilage formation, vascular invasion, bone formation, remodeling, and bone marrow differentiation. The mechanism of action is not known. However, several properties governing the implantcell interface are described. It is possible that bone matrix is a suitable biomaterial with potential applications in periodontal and orthopedic practice.
