Peri‐prosthetic tissue cells show osteogenic capacity to differentiate into the osteoblastic lineage

Description
Summary:ABSTRACT During the process of aseptic loosening of prostheses, particulate wear debris induces a continuous inflammatory‐like response resulting in the formation of a layer of fibrous peri‐prosthetic tissue at the bone‐prosthesis interface. The current treatment for loosening is revision surgery which is associated with a high‐morbidity rate, especially in old patients. Therefore, less invasive alternatives are necessary. One approach could be to re‐establish osseointegration of the prosthesis by inducing osteoblast differentiation in the peri‐prosthetic tissue. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the capacity of peri‐prosthetic tissue cells to differentiate into the osteoblast lineage. Cells isolated from peri‐prosthetic tissue samples (n = 22)−obtained during revision surgeries−were cultured under normal and several osteogenic culture conditions. Osteogenic differentiation was assessed by measurement of Alkaline Phosphatse (ALP), mineralization of the matrix and expression of several osteogenic genes. Cells cultured in osteogenic medium showed a significant increase in ALP staining (p = 0.024), mineralization of the matrix (p
