Cuff Repair

The healing of tendon–bone in the rotator cuff is featured by the formation of the scar tissues in the interface after repair. This study aimed to determine if the 3D-printed poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) scaffolds loaded with bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) could augment the rotator cuff repair in the rabbits. PLGA scaffolds were generated by the 3D-printed technology; Cell Counting Kit-8 assay evaluated the proliferation of BMSCs; the mRNA and protein expression levels were assessed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blot, respectively; immunohistology evaluated the rotator cuff repair; biomechanical characteristics of the repaired tissues were also assessed. 3D-printed PLGA scaffolds showed good biocompatibility without affecting the proliferative ability of BMSCs. BMSCs–PLGA scaffolds implantation enhanced the cell infiltration into the tendon-bone injunction at 4 weeks after implantation and improved the histology score in the tendon tissues after implantation. The mRNA expression levels of collagen I, III, tenascin, and biglycan were significantly higher in the scaffolds + BMSCs group at 4 weeks post-implantation than that in the scaffolds group. At 8 and 12 weeks after implantation, the biglycan mRNA expression level in the BMSCs–PLGA scaffolds group was significantly lower than that in the scaffolds group. BMSCs–PLGA scaffolds implantation enhanced collagen formation and increased collagen dimeter in the tendon–bone interface. The biomechanical analysis showed that BMSCs–PLGA scaffolds implantation improved the biomechanical properties of the regenerated tendon. The combination of 3D-printed PLGA scaffolds with BMSCs can augment the tendon–bone healing in the rabbit rotator cuff repair model.

Background/Aims: This study investigated the effect of silencing TOB1 (Transducer of ERBB2, 1) expression in bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on MSC-facilitated tendon-bone healing in a rat supraspinatus repair model. Methods: Rat MSCs were transduced with a recombinant lentivirus encoding short hairpin RNA (shRNA) against TOB1. MSC cell proliferation was analyzed by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assays. The effect of MSCs with TOB1 deficiency on tendon-bone healing in a rat rotator cuff repair model was evaluated by biomechanical testing, histological analysis and collagen type I and II gene expression. An upstream regulator (miR-218) of TOB1 was determined in MSCs. Results: We found that knockdown of TOB1 significantly increased the proliferative activity of rat MSCs in vitro. When MSCs with TOB1 deficiency were injected into injured rat supraspinatus tendon-bone junctions, the effect on tendon-bone healing was enhanced compared to treatment with control MSCs with normal TOB1 expression, as evidenced by elevated levels of ultimate load to failure and stiffness, increased amount of fibrocartilage and augmented expression of collagen type I and type II genes. In addition, we found that the TOB1 3′ untranslated region is a direct target of miR-218. Similar to the effect of TOB1 deficiency, overexpression of miR-218 effectively promoted tendon-bone healing in rat. Conclusion: These results suggest that TOB1 may play a negative role in the effect of MSCs on tendon-bone healing, and imply that expression of TOB1 may be regulated by miR-218.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the in vitro biocompatibility of three different suture anchors (all-suture anchor, metal anchor, and polyetheretherketone anchor), commonly used for the rotator cuff repair. Methods To assess the biocompatibility of the anchors, the possible cytotoxicity and the immunogenicity of the devices were assessed by cell viability assay and cell count on cultures of bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) and peripheral blood leucocytes (PBLs), respectively. The possible inhibitory effect of the devices on BMSCs osteogenic potential was evaluated by alkaline phosphatase activity and matrix deposition assay. Results The viability of BMSCs was slightly reduced when cultured in the presence of the devices (−24 ± 3%). Nevertheless, they were able to differentiate toward the osteogenic lineage in all culture conditions. The proliferation of PBLs and the production of interleukin-2 were not enhanced by the presence of any device. Conclusion The analyzed devices did not significantly affect the normal cells functions when directly cultured with human primary BMSCs or PBLs, in terms of osteogenic differentiation and inflammatory reaction. Clinical Relevance A deeper knowledge of the biological reactions to different devices used in rotator cuff surgeries would improve the clinical outcome of these procedures.

Objective: The aim of this study was to explore the role of has_circ_0010452 in the progression of osteoporosis (OP) targeting miR-543, as well as their functions in regulating proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs). Methods: The expression levels of circ_0010452 and miR-543 in hBMSCs at different time points of osteogenic differentiation were determined by quantitative Real Time-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR). After transfection of circ_0010452 siRNA or miR-543 inhibitor in hBMSCs, the relative expression levels of osteogenic marker proteins, including oat spelt xylan (OSX), osteocalcin (OCN) and collagen I (Col-1), were determined by western blot. Cell proliferation of hBMSCs was valued by Cell Counting Kit 8 (CCK-8) assay. Dual-Luciferase reporter gene assay was performed to verify the relationship between circ_0010452 and miR-543. Subsequently, the regulatory effects of circ_0010452 and miR-543 on osteogenic differentiation and the capability of mineralization were evaluated by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) determination and alizarin red staining, respectively. Results: The expression of circ_0010452 decreased gradually and miR-543 increased in hBMSCs with the prolongation of osteogenic differentiation. circ_0010452 could bind to miR-543, which was negatively regulated by miR-543 in hBMSCs. Moreover, knockdown of circ_0010452 inhibited proliferation and osteogenic differentiation by upregulating miR-543, as well as upregulating expressions of OSX, OCN and Col-1. Furthermore, knockdown of circ_0010452 markedly promoted the capability of mineralization of hBMSCs, which was further reversed by transfection of miR-543 inhibitor. The knockdown of miR-543 partially reversed the inhibitory effect of circ_0010452 on the osteogenesis of hBMSCs. Conclusions: Silence of circ_0010452 promotes the development of OP via binding to miR-543 regulating proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs, thus promoting the progression of osteoporosis.
