The effect of the cytostatic antitumor drug ONC201 on the number of mitochondrial nucleoids and the average size of mitochondria in the BT474 human breast cancer cells was studied. It was shown that incubation of BT474 cells with ONC201 (10 μM) for 24 h reduces the number
The development of barrier membranes for guided tissue regeneration remains an urgent task. A several authors proposed to use for this purpose xenomaterials from the small intestinal submucosa (SIS). The properties of such materials depend on the technology of donor cell removal (decellularization) and the condition of their extracellular matrix after processing (the presence or absence of proinflammatory damaged matrix components). The aim of this work was to study of biological properties of tissue-engineered xenogenic membranes made from porcine SIS by our patented technology (Cardioplant LLC, Russia) in experiments in vitro and in vivo. In vitro experiments was performed on cultures of multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells of the bone marrow and human skin fibroblasts, assessing viability, proliferative and mitotic activity of cells cultured on the surface of materials during 1 -7 days. The lyophilized barrier membrane bioPLATE MEMBRANE Barrier (Cardioplant LLC, Russia) used as control. To study of biocompatibility of experimental membranes in vivo, heterotopic implantation of materials to male Wistar rats was performed. The cell and tissue reactions and the degree of biointegration and the resorption of experimental materials were evaluated by rateover 14, 30, 60, and 90 days of implantation. The results indicate a higher biocompatibility of SIS-membrane compared with pericardial materials, and indicate the promise of using the porcine small intestinal submucosa to develop implants for guided tissue regeneration.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
