Recombinant human (rh) bone morphogenetic protein 12 (BMP12) is proved to induce the formation of tendon and ligament tissues in animal experiments. But the roles of BMP12 on tissue regeneration in human tendons remain unexplored. In the present study, healthy human patellar tendon samples were collected for histological examination and preparation of tendon fibroblast culture. Immunohistochemical staining showed that BMP12 was detected on healthy patellar tendon samples, only located on active tenoblasts and perivascular mesenchymal cells but not in interstitial tenocytes. The expression of PCNA and procollagen type I also exhibited a similar distribution. It indicates that BMP12 may be involved in matrix remodeling process in adult tissues. In vitro studies showed that rhBMP12 could increase proliferation of tendon fibroblasts and increase the gene expression of procollagen type I and type III, but decrease the gene expression of decorin in tendon fibroblasts culture. Our findings suggest that BMP12 may play a role in early phases of tissue regeneration in tendons.
