Bone regeneration of sheep lumbar osteopenia is promoted by targeted delivery of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) via a biodegradable, brushite-forming calcium-phosphate-cement (CPC) with stabilizing poly(l-lactide- co -glycolide) acid (PLGA) fibers. The present study sought to quantify the release and bioactivity of BMPs from a specific own CPC formulation successfully used in previous in vivo studies. CPC solid bodies with PLGA fibers (0%, 5%, 10%) containing increasing dosages of GDF5, BB-1, and BMP-2 (2 to 1000 µg/mL) were ground and extracted in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) or pure sheep serum/cell culture medium containing 10% fetal calf serum (FCS; up to 30/31 days). Released BMPs were quantified by ELISA, bioactivity was determined via alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity after 3-day exposure of different osteogenic cell lines (C2C12; C2C12BRlb with overexpressed BMP-receptor-1b; MCHT-1/26; ATDC-5) and via the influence of the extracts on the expression of osteogenic/chondrogenic genes and proteins in human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hASCs). There was hardly any BMP release in PBS, whereas in medium + FCS or sheep serum the cumulative release over 30/31 days was 11-34% for GDF5 and 6-17% for BB-1; the release of BMP-2 over 14 days was 25.7%. Addition of 10% PLGA fibers significantly augmented the 14-day release of GDF5 and BMP-2 (to 22.6% and 43.7%, respectively), but not of BB-1 (13.2%). All BMPs proved to be bioactive, as demonstrated by increased ALP activity in several cell lines, with partial enhancement by 10% PLGA fibers, and by a specific, early regulation of osteogenic/chondrogenic genes and proteins in hASCs. Between 10% and 45% of bioactive BMPs were released in vitro from CPC + PLGA fibers over a time period of 14 days, providing a basis for estimating and tailoring therapeutically effective doses for experimental and human in vivo studies.
