Periosteal Progenitor Cell Fate in Segmental Cortical Bone Graft Transplantations: Implications for Functional Tissue Engineering

A murine segmental femoral bone graft model was used to show the essential role of donor periosteal progenitor cells in bone graft healing. Transplantation of live bone graft harvested from Rosa 26A mice showed that ∼70% of osteogenesis on the graft was attributed to the expansion and differentiation of donor periosteal progenitor cells. Furthermore, engraftment of BMP‐2‐producing bone marrow stromal cells on nonvital allografts showed marked increases in cortical graft incorporation and neovascularization, suggesting that gene‐enhanced, tissue engineered functional periosteum may improve allograft incorporation and repair.
