    Cell source is the key to decellularized matrix (DM) strategy. This study compared 3 cell types, osteocytes with/without dominant active Wnt/β-catenin signaling (daCO and WTO) and bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) for their DMs in bone repair. Decellularization removes all organelles and >95% DNA, and retained >74% collagen and >71% GAG, maintains the integrity of cell basement membrane with dense boundaries showing oval and honeycomb structure in osteocytic DM and smooth but irregular shape in the BMSC-DM. DM produced higher cell survival rate (90%) and higher proliferative activity. In vitro, daCO-DM induces more and longer stress fibers in BMSCs, conducive to cell adhesion, spreading, and osteogenic differentiation. 8-wk after implantation of the critical-sized parietal bone defect model, daCO-DM formed tight structures, composed of a large number of densely-arranged type-I collagen under polarized light microscope, which is similar to and integrated with host bone. BV/TV (>54%) was 1.5, 2.9, and 3.5 times of WTO-DM, BMSC-DM, and none-DM groups, and N.Ob/T.Ar (3.2 × 102/mm2) was 1.7, 2.9, and 3.3 times. At 4-wk, daCO-DM induced osteoclastogenesis, 2.3 times higher than WTO-DM; but BMSC-DM or none-DM didn't. daCO-DM increased the expression of RANKL and MCSF, Vegfa and Angpt1, and Ngf in BMSCs, which contributes to osteoclastogenesis, angiogenesis, and neurogenesis, respectively. daCO-DM promoted H-type vessel formation and nerve markers β3-tubulin and NeuN expression. Conclusion: daCO-DM produces metabolic and neurovascularized organoid bone to accelerate the repair of bone defects. These features are expected to achieve the effect of autologous bone transplantation, suitable for transformation application.
