Osteogenic and Angiogenic Synergy of Human Adipose Stem Cells and Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells Cocultured in a Modified Perfusion Bioreactor.

ABSTRACT: Synergistic promotion of angiogenesis and osteogenesis in bone tissue-engineered constructs remains a crucial clinical challenge, which might be overcome by simultaneous employment of superior techniques including coculture systems, differentiation-stimulated factors, combinatorial scaffolds and bioreactors.Current study investigated the effect of flow perfusion along with coculture of human adipose stem cells (hASCs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) on osteogenic and angiogenic differentiation.Pre-treated hASCs with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D₃ were seeded onto poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)/β-tricalcium phosphate/polycaprolactone (PLGA/β-TCP/PCL) scaffold with/without HUVECs, and cultured for 14 days within a flask or modified perfusion bioreactor.
