Abstract

We investigated the impact of human demineralized bone matrix (hDBM) plus adipose-derived stem cells (hADS) plus photobiomodulation (PBM) on a critical-sized femoral defect (CSFD) in ovariectomy induced osteoporosis in rats. There were 6 groups as follows. In group 1 (control, C), only CSFDs were created. Groups 2–6 were implanted with DBM into the CSFD (DBM-CSFD). In group 2 (S), only DBM was transplanted into the CSFD. In group 3 (S + PBM), the DBM-CSFDs were treated with PBM. In group 4, the DBM-CSFDs were treated with alendronate (S + ALN). In group 5, ADSs were seeded into DBM-CSFD (S + ADS). In group 6, ADSs were seeded into DBM-CSFD and the CSFDs were treated with PBM (S + PBM + ADS). At week eight (catabolic phase of bone repair), the S + ALN, S + PBM + ADS, S + PBM, and S + ADS groups all had significantly increased bone strength than the S group (ANOVA, p = 0.000). The S + PBM, S + PBM + ADS, and S + ADS groups had significantly increased Hounsfield unit than the S group (ANOVA, p = 0.000). ALN, ADS, and PBM significantly increased healed bone strength in an experimental model of DBM-treated CSFD in the catabolic phase of bone healing in osteoporotic rats. However, ALN alone and PBM plus ADS were superior to the other protocols. © 2020 Elsevier Inc.
