Deproteinized cancellous bovine bone (Bio-Oss®) as bone substitute for sinus floor elevation

JOURNAL OF CLINICAL PERIODONTOLOGY, Issue 3 2003
A retrospective, histomorphometrical study of five cases
Abstract Objectives: To study in detail the performance of deproteinized cancellous bovine bone (DPBB, Bio-Osso®) granules as a bone substitute, a histomorphometric was performed on five patients treated with DPBB for reconstruction of the severely atrophic maxilla. Material and Methods: DPBB was used as mixture with autogenous bone particles, in concentrations that increased from 20% to 100% DPBB, with the time of healing increasing accordingly from 5 to 8 months. A total of 20 vertical biopsies was taken at the time of fixture installation and used for histomorphometry as undecalcified Goldner stained sections. Results: The results show that in all cases, the DPBB granules had been interconnected by bridges of vital newly formed bone. The volume of bone in the grafted area correlated inversely with the concentration of DPBB grafted, and varied between 37% and 23%. However, the total volume of mineralized material (bone plus DPI3B granules) remained within the same range in all five patients (between 53% and 59%). The high values for osteoid and resorption surface, and the presence of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-positive multinucleated osteoclasts in resorption lacunae, indicated that bone remodeling was very active in all grafts. Osteoclasts were also observed in shallow resorption pits on DPBB surfaces. The percentage DPBB surface in contact with bone remained stable at about 35% and could not be related to the proportion of DPBB grafted. Conclusion: Although the number of patients examined was limited, the data suggest that deproteinized cancellous bovine bone, preferably combined with autogenous bone particles, is a suitable material for sinus floor elevation in the severely atrophic human maxilla. Zusammenfassung Ent-Proteinisierter spöngiöser boviner Knochen (Bio-Oss) als Knochenersatz zur Sinusboden-Elevation. Eine retrospektive histomorphometrische Studie an 5 Fällen. Ziele:Um das Verhalten Ent-Proteinisierten spöngiösen bovinen Knochengranulats (DPBB, Bio,Oss) als Knochenersatzmaterial detailliert zu studieren, wurde an 5 Patienten, die mit DPBB zur Rekonstruktion der stark atrophischen Maxilla behandelt wurden, eine histomorphometrische Studie durchgeführt. Material und Methoden:DPBB wurde als Mischung mit autogenen Knochenpartikeln in einer Konzentration von 20 , 100% DPBB verwendet. Die Heilungsdauer wurde entsprechend von 5 auf 8 Monate erhöht. Zum Zeitpunkt der Implantatsetzung wurden insgesamt 20 vertikale Biopsien entnommen und für die Histomorphometrie als nicht-entkalkte, Goldner-gefärbte Schnitte verwendet. Ergebnisse: Die Ergebnisse zeigten in allen Fällen, dass die DPBB-Granula über Brücken von vitalem neu gebildetem Knochen miteinander verbunden waren. Das Volumen des Knochens in dem transplantiertem Gebiet korrelierte umgekehrt mit der Konzentration der transpantierten DPBB und variierte zwischen 37% und 23%. Jedoch lag das Gesamtvolumen des mineralisierten Materials (Knochen+DPBB-Granula)bei allen 5 Patienten im selben Bereich (zwischen 53% und 59%). Die hohen Werte für Ostoid und Resorptionsflächen sowie die Anwesenheit von TRAP-positiven multinukleären Osteoklasten in Resorptionslakunen, zeigte, dass das Knochenremodelling in allen Transplantaten sehr aktiv war. Auch in flachen Resorpionsgrübchen auf der DPBB-Oberfläche wurden Osteoklasten beobachtet. Der Prozentsatz der DPBB-Oberfläche welche im Knochenkontakt war blieb mit etwa 35% stabil und korrelierte nicht mit dem Anteil des transplantierten DPBBs. Schlussfolgerung:Obwohl die untersuchte Patientenzahl sehr gering ist, lassen die Daten vermuten, dass Ent-Proteinisierter spöngiöser boviner Knochen, vorzugsweise mit autogenen Knochenpartikeln kombiniert, ein geeignetes Material für die Sinusboden-Elevation bei stark atrophischer Maxilla ist. Résumé Os bovin spongieux déprotéiné comme substitut osseux dans l'épaississement sinusal. Une étude histomorphométrique rétrospective de cinq cas Le but de cette étude a été d'analyser en détail les performances de l'os bovin spongieux déprotéiné (DPBB, Bio-Oss®) en granules comme substitut osseux par une analyse histomorphométrique effectuée chez cinq patients traités pour une reconstruction au niveau d'un maxillaire sévèrement atrophié. DPBB a été utilisé en mélange avec des particules osseuses autogènes en concentrations augmentaient de 20 à 100% de DPBB, avec un temps de guérison augmentant paralèllement de cinq à huit mois. Vingt biopsies verticales ont ainsi été prélevées au moment du placement des implants et utilisées pour l'histomorphométrie sur coupes colorées Goldner non-décalcifiées. Les résultats ont indiqué que dans tous les cas les granules DPBB ont été interconnectées par des bridges d'os néoformé vivant. Le volume d'os dans l'aire greffée était en corrélation inverse avec les concentrations de DPBB greffées et variait entre 37 et 23 %. Cependant le volume total de matériel minéralisé (os+granules DPBB) restait dans les mêmes moyennes chez les cinq patients (entre 53 et 59 %). Les valeurs importantes pour la surface de résorption et ostéides, et la présence d'ostéoclastes multinucléaires positifs au TRAP dans les lacunes de résorption indiquaient que le remodelage osseux était très actif dans tous les greffons. Les ostéoclastes étaient également observés dans des petites crevasses de résorption étroites sur les surfaces DPBB. Le pourcentage DPBB en contact avec l'os demeurait stable à environ 35% et ne pouvait pas être mis en relation avec la proportion de DPBB greffé. Bien que le nombre de patients examinés aie été très limité, les données suggèrent que l'os bovin spongieux déprotéiné de préférence en combinaison avec des particules d'os autogène est un bon matériel pour l'épaississement du plancher sinusal en présence de maxillaire humain sévèrement atrophié.

High concentrations of bioactive glass material (BioGran®) vs. autogenous bone for sinus floor elevation

CLINICAL ORAL IMPLANTS RESEARCH, Issue 4 2002
Histomorphometrical observations on three split mouth clinical cases
Abstract: In this study, high concentrations of bioactive glass (BG) particles were compared with autogenous bone in their capacity to augment maxillary bone when grafted in the human sinus floor using a split mouth design. Three female patients with severe maxillary atrophy underwent bilateral sinus floor elevation and bone grafting using 80,100% BG particles (300,355 ,m in size) mixed with 20% to 0% iliac crest bone particles at one (experimental) side, and 100% iliac crest derived bone particles at the other (control) side. A total of 22 bone biopsies was taken at the time of fixture installation; that is, at 4, 6 and 15 months after grafting, and processed for histology and histomorphometry. At the control (autogenous bone) sides, trabecular bone amounted to 39% of the biopsy volume in the graft (site) at 4 months, almost 41% at 6 months, and 42% at 15 months. This bone contained viable osteocytes and was mostly of mature, lamellar type. At the experimental (BG particles) sides, the graft consisted of 27% of mostly woven (and some lamellar) bone at 4 months, 36% (woven and lamellar) bone at 6 months, and 39% (mainly lamellar) bone at 15 months. The grafted BG particles started to excavate at 4 months and their centers gradually filled with bone tissue. As a consequence, the volume of BG particles in the biopsy decreased from 29% at 4 months to 15% at 6 months and 8% at 15 months. The BG particles appeared to resorb within 1,2 years by dissolution rather than by osteoclastic activity. Parameters for bone turnover (% osteoid surface, % resorption surface) indicated that bone remodeling was very active at both experimental and control sides, during more than 6 months. These results suggest that mixtures of mainly (80,90%) BG particles and some (10,20%) autogenous bone are effective for bone regeneration in the augmented sinus offer 6 months healing time, while about 12 months healing time is needed for 100% BG particles.

Use of a Phage Display Technique to Identify Potential Osteoblast Binding Sites Within Osteoclast Lacunae,

JOURNAL OF BONE AND MINERAL RESEARCH, Issue 5 2002

Abstract There is a temporal coupling between the processes of bone resorption and bone formation in normal skeletal remodeling. That is, osteoblastic activity usually follows episodes of osteoclastic activity. However, what has not been universally appreciated is that there also is a spatial coupling between these processes. Bone formation only occurs in the immediate vicinity of the resorptive event. In this study, we describe a phage display technique that has been used to identify the mechanisms by which osteoblasts recognize components of the prior resorbed lacunar surface. Using a type V tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) as the bait and a random peptide M13 phage display library as the probe, we have identified specific sequences that show a very high affinity for TRAP. One of these peptides, designated clone 5, has a subnanomolar Kd for TRAP, interacts with TRAP in a Far-Western assay, binds exclusively to TRAP within osteoclast lacunae, is present in osteoblasts, and can effectively block osteoblast binding to resorption surfaces. The clone 5 peptide shows a high homology to glypican 4 (GPC4), a proteoglycan attachment receptor found in a number of cell types. [source]

Brief communication: Identification of bone formation and resorption surfaces by reflected light microscopy

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL ANTHROPOLOGY, Issue 2 2010
Cayetana Martinez-Maza
Abstract Developmental and evolutionary changes in craniofacial morphology are a central issue in paleoanthropology, but the underlying bone growth processes have been scarcely studied. Relevant knowledge on bone growth dynamics can be obtained from the spatial distribution of bone formation and resorption activities. Determining these patterns from the valuable samples typically used in anthropology and palaeoanthropology necessarily implies nondestructive procedures. In this work, we present a methodology based on the analysis of high-resolution replicas by reflected light microscopy, describing how microfeatures related to bone formation and resorption activities are recognized on both recent and fossil bone surfaces. The proposed method yields highly similar images to those obtained with scanning electron microscope and has proven its utility in an analysis of a large sample of extant and extinct hominoids.
