Comparison of Effects of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Stimulation on Platelet-Rich Plasma and Bone Marrow Stromal Stem Cell Using Rat Zygomatic Bone Defect Model

掲載誌: Ann Plast Surg 2015; 75 (5): 565-571

この研究は、頬骨を欠損(4mm)させ、その部位を浅側頭筋膜で覆ったラットモデルを用いて、その骨治癒過程での骨密度を指標に、骨再生にポジティブな影響をもつと考えられている多血小板血漿(PRP)および骨髄間質幹細胞に対するパルス電磁界刺激の効果を調べた。頬骨欠損ラットモデルの作成手術後に、PRPまたは骨髄間質幹細胞パルス電磁界刺激の有無による4通りの組合せ処置を患部に与えた。その結果、他の組合せに比べ、PRPとパルス電磁界の組合せが骨再生に有効であった、と報告している。

研究目的(著者による)

The effects of exposure of rats with an experimental zygomatic bone fracture to a pulsed 50 Hz magnetic field in combination with other therapeutical treatments on bone healing should be investigated.

詳細情報

Isogeneic (inbred) rats were divided into 9 groups (n=15 rats each): 1) exposure to the sinusoidal magnetic field, 2) exposure to the pulsed magnetic field, 3) treatment with platelet-rich plasma, 4) treatment with bone marrow stromal stem cells, 5) co-exposure to the sinusoidal and pulsed magnetic field, 6) exposure to the pulsed magnetic field and treatment with platelet-rich plasma, 7) exposure to the pulsed magnetic field and treatment with bone marrow stromal stem cells, 8) sham group (no exposure or treatment, only bone fracture) and 9) control group (no exposure, no treatment, no bone fracture).
Except for the control groups, rats in all groups underwent a surgery to induce an experimental non-union fracture of the zygomatic bone. Treatments with platelet-rich plasma or bone marrow stromal stem cells took place directly after creation of the fracture during the same surgery. Exposure to the magnetic fields started on the 7. day after the surgery/treatments.

General information

remark EMF-Portal: as the same exposure device was used for the purpose of obtaining a magnetic field with pulse via intermittent flow of power supply and to obtain a sinusoidal field via constant power flow, it is not evident how a co-exposure to both fields (group 5) was realized

研究の主なアウトカム(著者による)

After 6 months, the bone density showed significant differences between the groups. The highest mean bone density was found in the control group (group 9). Group 6 (pulsed magnetic field and platelet-rich plasma) showed the second highest value followed by group 7 (pulsed magnetic field and bone marrow stromal stem cells).
Regarding the marker levels, significant differences between the groups were found as well. The highest values of hydroxyproline in urine and in bone tissue, alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin in the blood were found in group 6.
Histopathological comparison of the groups did not point out any differences regarding inflammation. The highest increase in terms of blood vessel formation was observed in group 6, whereas the lowest increase was seen in group 7. The values closest to the control groups in terms of collagen fibrils and osteocyte ratio were found in groups 6 and 7.
The authors conclude that exposure of rats with an experimental zygomatic bone fracture to a pulsed 50 Hz magnetic field in combination with a treatment with platelet-rich plasma might be beneficial for bone healing and useful for clinical applications.
