It is used widely in orthopedic research and surgery to enhance the osseointegrative potential of implants, e.g., in spinal fusion or alveolar socket augmentation. The aim of the present study was to investigate the benefit of rhBMP-2 on a titan plasma spray (TPS) layer after a special modification with chromosulfuric acid (CSA) at different postoperative times, regarding osseoconduction and osseoinduction. Methods: We allocated 27 Göttinger minipigs into three groups consisting of nine animals each. They received four dumbbell-shaped implants in the metaphyseal parts of the femora. The implants had a TPS surface with (CSA group) and without a CSA treatment (TPS group). The former received an additional layer of BMP-2 (BMP-2 group). For the assessment of osseointegration after healing periods of 4, 8, and 12 weeks, histomorphometry was applied to undecalcified specimens after staining according to Masson-Goldner. An intravital labeling with different fluorochromes was used in the gap model. A multivariable analysis with repeated measurement design was performed for statistical evaluation. Results: We observed several statistical differences in a three-way ANOVA. The comparison between the BMP-2 and the TPS group (two-way ANOVA) showed statistically significant differences in terms of the osseoinduction (osteoid volume), and pronounced for the osseoconduction (bone and osteoid ongrowth), in favor of the BMP-2 group. In the pairwise comparison between BMP-2 and CSA (two-way ANOVA), no statistical significance occurred. The intravital staining with tetracycline, calcein green, and xylenol orange revealed no considerable differences between the groups. Conclusion: BMP-2, covalently bound on a CSA-treated TPS surface, has positive effects on the osseointegration in the large animal bone gap-healing model over the observation period of 12 weeks. publisher: Biomed Central date: 2018 type: Article type: info:eu-repo/semantics/article type: NonPeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: https://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/volltextserverhttps://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/volltextserver/25457/1/13018_2018_Article_915.pdf identifier: DOI: identifier: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-heidok-254571 identifier: Lingner, Manuel ; Seidling, Roland ; Lehmann, Lars Johannes ; Mauermann, Eckhard ; Obertacke, Udo ; Schwarz, Markus Ludiwg Rupert (2018) Osseointegrative effect of rhBMP-2 covalently bound on a titan-plasma-spray-surface after modification with chromosulfuric acid in a large animal bone gap-healing model with the Göttingen minipig.
