Purpose:Proper speed of distraction is critical for successful new bone formation in distraction osteogenesis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) on formation of new blood vessels and new bones in the rat model of tibial distraction osteogenesis (DO) to develop enhancement method of bone formation while increasing the distraction speed
Materials and Methods : Forty two rat-tibial 00 models were included in this study, and were divided into 3 groups; group Ⅰ (rapid distraction). group Ⅱ (rapid distraction with G-CSF). and group Ⅲ (slow distraction). The amount of bone formation and relative blood flow were analyzed by sequential radiographs and laser Ooppler perfusion imaging (LDPI). Blood sampling was done before G-CSF injection, at 2 weeks and 5 weeks after G-CSF injection and surface expression such as Scal -1+and C-kit+of endothelial progenitor cells(EPCs) was analyzed by fluorescence-activated cell sorter (FACS) for the effects of G-CSF in inducing mobilization of EPCs
Results:The amount of new bone formation in the distraction gap on serial radiographs was higher during the consolidation period in groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ than in group Ⅰ but, the difference was not significant (p>;O.05). The relative blood flow in the distraction gap in groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ increased more significantly than in group Ⅰ (p<;0.05). FACS analysis showed an increased EPCs fraction after G-CSF injection
Conclusion:We demonstrated that G-CSF administration ameliorated bone formation and blood flow during rapid distraction in the rat model of tibial distraction osteogenesis. We think that G-CSF has an effect on mobilization of EPCs resulting in an increase in the blood flow.
