Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a collagen-cartilage cell composite material composed of a collagen containing a basic fibroblast growth factor and cartilage cell, having high biocompatibility, effective for proliferating cartilage cell in vivo and promoting the regeneration of cartilage tissue and useful e.g. as a material for regenerating and curing cartilage tissue. CONSTITUTION:This collagen-cartilage cell composite material is composed of a spongy collagen containing a basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and cartiage cell such as human cartilage, has high blocompatibility and is effective for proliferating cartilage cell in vivo and promoting the regeneration of cartilage tissue, applicable to various cartilage diseases and useful e.g. as a material for regenerating and curing cartilage tissue. The collagen-cartilage cell composite material can be produced by punching a type-I collagen sponge in disk form, laying one disk on another, sewing the circumference of the laminate to form a bag, immersing the bag in 70% ethanol for 1 day, immersing in a bFGF solution for 1 day and injecting a cartilage cell dispersion into the collagen sponge bag with an injector.

Although it proliferates vigorously in n vitro culture, it does not differentiate into cartilage tissue. Therefore, it seems that the task of rebuilding cartilage tissue should be entrusted to the living body. It has already been reported that cartilage tissue could be reconstructed by using polylactic acid, which is a biodegradable and absorbable synthetic polymer, as a scaffold to attach chondrocytes to the scaffold and implant it in the body of nude mice. It takes time.

After a week, it was almost completely absorbed. Cartilage tissue was not observed until 2 weeks after the control 2 sample was implanted, but when a tissue section was observed 4 weeks later, formation of tissue specific to cartilage was observed, which was embedded. Only a small portion of the sample. One week after implanting the complex of the present invention, no cartilage tissue was observed, but it was confirmed that cartilage proteoglycan was produced between the cells from the heterostaining of thionine. A large number of capillaries were also formed in the sample. After 4 weeks, cartilage tissue is observed on almost the entire surface of the embedded sample. Also, in this case, the entire sample could be removed from the mouse as a white mass.
