Background: /Objective: Tissue engineering involves scaffolds, cells and growth factors, among which growth factors have limited applications due to potential safety risks and high costs. Therefore, an alternative approach to exogenously induce osteogenesis is desirable. Considering that osteogenesis and angiogenesis are coupled, a system of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and human bone mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) coculture is more biologically adapted to the microenvironment in vivo and can mediate osteogenesis and angiogenesis via paracrine signalling. Hence, in this study, a HUVECs/hBMSCs coculture system with appropriate cell and medium proportions was established. The substrate for the coculture system was a 3D-printed composite bioceramic scaffold (β-TCP/CaSiO3) based on a previous study. The aim of this study was to explore the potential of this system for bone tissue engineering. Methods: Bioactive ceramic scaffolds for tissue engineering were fabricated via a 3D Bioplotter™ system. The coculture system for in vitro and in vivo studies consisted of direct contact between HUVECs and hBMSCs cultured on the 3D-printed scaffolds. Results: The proportions of HUVECs/hBMSCs and medium components were determined by cell viability, and the coculture system showed negligible cytotoxicity. CD31 secreted by HUVECs formed strings, and cells tended to aggregate in island chain-like arrays. Real-time cell tracking showed that HUVECs were recruited by hBMSCs, and the integrin expression by HUVECs was upregulated. Ultimately, osteogenic and angiogenic marker gene expression and protein secretion were upregulated. Moreover, the obtained bone tissue engineering scaffolds could induce early osteogenic protein secretion and capillary tube formation in nude rats. Conclusion: These bone tissue engineering scaffolds without exogenous growth factors exhibited the ability to promote osteogenesis/angiogenesis. Translational potential of this article: The fabricated 3D-printed bioactive ceramic scaffolds could provide mechanical, biodegradable and bioadaptive support for personalized bone regeneration. In addition, the bone tissue engineering scaffolds exhibited the ability to promote osteogenesis/angiogenesis without the addition of exogenous growth factors, thus mitigating safety risks. Although application of the HUVECs/hBMSCs coculture system might be a time-consuming process, further development of cord blood storage could be beneficial for multicell coculture. |
