The MSCs were cultured and transfected with rAAV2-bFGF after differential adherence isolation. The transfection efficiency was detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting. The transfected MSCs were compounded with poly-DL-lactide/hydroxyapatite (PDLLA/HA) in vitro. The cranial defect models in 36 male SD rats were created. Nothing (group A), PDLLA/HA alone (group B), PDLLA/HA combined with MSCs (group C), and PDLLA/HA combined with rAAV2-bFGF transfected MSCs (group D) were implanted in rat calvarial defects. The specimens were harvested for hematoxylin-eosin staining on the day 1, 3 and 7 after implantation. Factor Ⅷ immunohistochemical staining and histomorphometric analysis were carried out to evaluate neovascularization around the implantation. The results indicated that MSCs could indeed be successfully transfected with the rAAV2-bFGF vector. Histological and histomorphometric analysis revealed that the angiogenesis in group D was significantly enhanced as compared with the rest groups (P<0.05). These results strongly suggest that MSCs transfected with rAAV2-bFGF in combination with PDLLA/HA can effectively promote the early angiogenesis of calvarial defects in rats, which played an important role in creating an environment suitable for the survival and activity of transplanted cells for further applications in cranio-maxillofacial bone regeneration.展开更多

The recombinant plasmid was identified with enzyme digestion and sequencing. The recombinant plasmid, pAAV-RC, pHelper were co-transfected into AAV-293 cells according to the calcium phosphate-based protocol. The viral stock was collected by 4 rounds of freeze/thaw. After purified and concentrated, the recombinant virus titer was determined by dot-blot assay. HEK293 cells were transfected with the recombinant virus at different MOI, and the expression of BMP7 mRNA was detected by RT-PCR. The results showed rAAV-BMP7 was constructed and packaged successfully. The physical particle titer was 2.5×10^11 vector genomes/mL. There was different expression level of BMP7 mRNA after transfecton. These data suggested that recombinant AAV mediated a stable expression of hBMP7 mRNA in 293 cells. The AAV production method may pave the way of an effective strategy for the jaw bone defection around dental implants.展开更多

A follow-up examination included 27 patients who underwent the ablative tumor and （or） reconstructive surgery during a 5-year period. The follow-up protocol included clinical examination, radiological evaluation, and an interview using a standardized questionnaire. The reasons related to implant failure were studied by comparing the amount of failure with the value of marginal bone resorption, probing pocket depth, and plaque index using statistical t-test. The relationship between smoking and implant failure was analyzed statistically by chi-square test. The results showed among the 112 implants observed after implant loading, 29 have failed with the failure rate being 22.14 %. There was no significant correlation between the peri-implant status and the implant failure （P〉0.05）, however, the association of smoking and implant failure was statistically tested （P〈0.05）. It was suggested that the association of peri-implant status and implant failure in the maxilla after tumor surgery can＇t be statistically tested, however smoking was still a mainly significant factor.展开更多
