Calvarial Defect Healing Induced by Small Molecule Smoothened Agonist
Lee, Soonchul,Shen, Jia,Pan, Hsin Chuan,Shrestha, Swati,Asatrian, Greg,Nguyen, Alan,Meyers, Carolyn,Nguyen, Vi,Lee, Min,Soo, Chia,Ting, Kang,James, Aaron W. Mary Ann Liebert 2016 Tissue engineering. Part A Vol.22 No.23
<P>Hedgehog (Hh) signaling positively regulates both endochondral and intramembranous ossification. Use of small molecules for tissue engineering applications poses several advantages. In this study, we examined whether use of an acellular scaffold treated with the small molecule Smoothened agonist (SAG) could aid in critical-size mouse calvarial defect repair. First, we verified the pro-osteogenic effect of SAG in vitro, using primary neonatal mouse calvarial cells (NMCCs). Next, a 4mm nonhealing defect was created in the mid-parietal bone of 10-week-old CD-1 mice. The scaffold consisted of a custom-fabricated poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) disc with hydroxyapatite coating (measuring 4mm diameterx0.5mm thickness). Treatment groups included dimethylsulfoxide control (n=6), 0.5mM SAG (n=7) or 1.0mM SAG (n=7). Evaluation was performed at 4 and 8 weeks postoperative, by a combination of high-resolution microcomputed tomography, histology (H & E, Masson's Trichrome), histomorphometry, and immunohistochemistry (BSP, OCN, VEGF). In vivo results showed that SAG treatment induced a significant and dose-dependent increase in calvarial bone healing by all radiographic parameters. Histomorphometric analysis showed an increase in all parameters of bone formation with SAG treatment, but also an increase in blood vessel number and density. In summary, SAG is a pro-osteogenic, provasculogenic stimulus when applied locally in a bone defect environment.</P>
