Proteome analysis of human mesenchymal stem cells undergoing chondrogenesis when exposed to the products of various magnesium-based materials degradation.
Treatment of physeal fractures (15%-30% of all paediatric fractures) remains a challenge as in approximately 10% of the cases, significant growth disturbance may occur. Bioresorbable Magnesium-based implants represent a strategy to minimize damage (i.e., load support until bone healing without second surgery). Nevertheless, the absence of harmful effects of magnesium-implants and their degradation products on the growth plate should be confirmed. Here, the proteome of human mesenchymal stem cells undergoing chondrogenesis was evaluated when exposed to the products of various Magnesium-based materials degradation. The results of this study indicate that the materials induced regulation of proteins associated with cell chondrogenesis and cartilage formation, which should be beneficial for cartilage regeneration.
