Popis: | Many wounds to both soft and hard tissues heal via the formation of a granulation tissue bed. This bed is supportive of neoangiogenesis and releases proangiogenic, migratory, and proliferative growth factors and cytokines. In this study granulation tissue was grown on an intraperitoneal implant (4 mm diameter, 20 mm length) in a sheep. After 2 weeks, this implant was removed and transplanted into a femoral bone defect (4 mm diameter, 20 mm length). The sheep were sacrificed after 3 months, and the implant site examined using micro-CT and histology. A bone plaque formed adjacent to the implant, only in the presence of the peritoneal granulation tissue. This suggests that the formation of granulation tissue is a relatively conserved response at various locations in the body and its transplantation from one location to another can be used to induce tissue healing. This technique may prove useful as a method of improving physiological response to biomaterials. |
