AbstractPrevious reports have suggested that bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) gene therapy could be applied for in vivo bone regeneration. However, these studies were conducted either using immunodeficient animals because of immunogenicity of adenovirus vectors, or using ex vivo gene transfer technique, which is much more difficult to handle. Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a replication-defective virus without any association with immunogenicity and human disease. This study was conducted to investigate whether orthotopic new bone formation could be induced by in vivo gene therapy using AAV-based BMP2 vectors. To test the feasibility of this approach, we constructed an AAV vector carrying human BMP2 gene. Mouse myoblast cells (C2C12) transduced with this vector could produce and secrete biologically active BMP2 protein and induce osteogenic activity, which was confirmed by ELISA and alkaline phosphatase activity assay. For in vivo study, AAV-BMP2 vectors were directly injected into the hindlimb muscle of immunocompetent Sprague-Dawley rats. Significant new bone under X-ray films could be detected as early as 3 weeks postinjection. The ossification tissue was further examined by histological and immunohistochemical analysis. This study is, to our knowledge, the first to establish the feasibility of AAV-based BMP2 gene therapy for endochondral ossification in immunocompetent animals.
