Abstract

The reparative properties of amniotic membrane allografts are well-suited for a broad spectrum of specialties. Further enhancement of their utility can be achieved by designing to the needs of each application through the development of novel processing techniques and tissue configurations. As such, this study evaluated the material characteristics and biological properties of two PURION® processed amniotic membrane products, a lyophilized human amnion, intermediate layer, and chorion membrane (LHACM) and a dehydrated human amnion, chorion membrane (DHACM). LHACM is thicker; therefore, its handling properties are ideal for deep, soft tissue deficits; whereas DHACM is more similar to a film-like overlay and may be used for shallow defects or surgical on-lays. Characterization of the similarities and differences between LHACM and DHACM was conducted through a series of in vitro and in vivo studies relevant to the healing cascade. Compositional analysis was performed through histological staining along with assessment of barrier membrane properties through equilibrium dialysis. In vitro cellular response was assessed in fibroblasts and endothelial cells using cell proliferation, migration, and metabolic assays. The in vivo cellular response was assessed in an athymic nude mouse subcutaneous implantation model. The results indicated the PURION® process preserved the native membrane structure, nonviable cells and collagen distributed in the individual layers of both products. Although, LHACM is thicker than DHACM, a similar composition of growth factors, cytokines, chemokines and proteases is retained and consequently elicit comparable in vitro and in vivo cellular responses. In culture, both treatments behaved as potent mitogens, chemoattractants and stimulants, which translated to the promotion of cellular infiltration, neocollagen deposition and angiogenesis in a murine model. PURION® processed LHACM and DHACM differ in physical properties but possess similar in vitro and in vivo activities highlighting the impact of processing method on the versatility of clinical use of amniotic membrane allografts.
