This study investigated the potential of Cranberry extract to stimulate osteogenesis in vitro. The total phenolic and monomeric anthocyanin contents in the Cranberry were determined. Liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry was used to identify the Cranberry’s constituents. To assess the Cranberry’s cytotoxicity, a thiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide assay was employed. Concerning the osteogenesis potential of Cranberry, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) expression, and extracellular matrix mineralization were evaluated. The total phenolic content was 522.72 ± 9.80 mg GAE g-1 ES and 364.95 ± 12.49 mg GAE/g detected by the Fast Blue BB and Folin–Ciocalteu method, respectively. For monomeric anthocyanin, the content was 460 ± 30 mg ECG g-1 ES. Moreover, Cranberry concentrations ranged from 62.5 to 500 mg/mL and were found to be biocompatible with osteoblasts and mesenchymal stromal cells. Regarding osteogenesis, 20 mg/mL of Cranberry promoted 2-fold more ALP activity and almost 1.5-fold more BMP-2 than compared to the positive control group. Additionally, 200 mg/mL of Cranberry stimulated a 1.7-fold increase in extracellular matrix mineralization compared to the positive control group. In conclusion, Cranberry displayed potential in stimulating early and late markers of osteogenesis. Its ability to promote osteogenesis and its biocompatibility at higher concentrations hold promise for future application into biomaterials for bone regeneration.
