Bone regeneration of the alveolar crest around dental implants is an important factor in the success of implant use. Calcium phosphate cement can be used as a bone substitute and applied clinically as a paste to fill micro- and macroscopic bone defects. We have shown earlier that the intermixing of the recombinant human transforming growth factor-beta1 (rhTGF-beta1) in hardening calcium phosphate cement stimulated osteoblastic differentiation of rat primary bone cells in vitro. The aim of the present study was to examine whether the similar enrichment with rhTGF-beta1 affects the replacement of calcium phosphate cement by bone (osteotransduction) in calvarial critical size defects (csd) of adult rats. Two bone defects of 5 mm diameter were created bilaterally in each skull of 10 adult male rats. Both defects were filled with 53 mg of calcium phosphate cement without rhTGF-beta1 (control) at one side, and with 10 or 20 ng rhTGF-beta1 at the other side. After 8 weeks, defects with surrounding skull were analysed histologically and histomorphometrically. The addition of rhTGF-beta1 in the cement increased the amount of bone in rat skull defects. This finding coincidences with our in vitro observations, that intermixing of rhTGF-beta1 in calcium phosphate cement stimulates bone cell differentiation. Addition of rhTGF-beta1 stimulated bone formation as indicated by an increased bone volume of 50% and an increased bone/cement contact of 65%, in comparison to control defects with cement without rhTGF-beta1. In addition, rhTGF-beta1 reduced the remaining volume of cement, by 11% at 10 ng rhTGF-beta1, and by 20% at 20 ng rhTGF-beta1 in the cement. Defect closure was not affected. We conclude that the intermixing of rhTGF-beta1 in a fast-setting calcium phosphate cement stimulates bone growth and the osteotransduction of the cement. For bone regeneration procedures around endosseous implants, calcium phosphate cement with rhTGF-beta1 might be an appropriate combination for early osseointegration and implant use.
