Abstract

Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are well-established agents for inducing orthotopic and ectopic bone formation. However, their clinical usefulness as regenerative agents may be limited by a short in vivo half-life and low specific activity. BMP gene therapy is an alternative route for exploiting the bone-inductive activity of this class of molecules. To test the feasibility of this approach, we examined the osteogenic activity of AdCMV-BMP7, an adenovirus containing BMP7 cDNA under control of the CMV promoter that was constructed using Cre/lox recombination (Hardy et al. [1997] J. Virol. 71:1842-1849). Adenovirus vectors were shown to readily infect a wide variety of cell types in vitro including osteoblasts, fibroblasts, and myoblasts. COS7 cells transduced with AdCMV-BMP7 produced high levels of BMP-7 (approximately 0 VSports手机版. 5 microg/10(6) cells). Furthermore, transduction of C2C12 murine myoblast cells with AdCMVBMP-7 suppressed the muscle phenotype and induced in vitro osteoblast differentiation. To test its in vivo biological activity, AdCMV-BMP7 was mixed with a bovine bone-derived collagen carrier (10(8) plaque-forming units virus/site) and was implanted into mouse muscle and dermal pouches. In both cases, an ossicle containing cortical and trabecular bone and a clearly defined marrow cavity formed at the site of virus implantation within 4 weeks. These data demonstrate that AdCMV-BMP7 transduced cells produce biologically active BMP-7 both in vitro and in vivo and show that gene therapy by direct viral transduction using a virus/matrix implant may be a viable route for stimulating bone regeneration. .
