Owing to their lower chemical durability, bioactive borate glasses degrade more rapidly and consequently have a quicker conversion rate to bone-like mineral hydroxy-carbonated apatite, HCA when compared to the traditional silicate bioactive glasses 1 ...

Cells in vivo are subjected to mechanical signals including deformations, external mechanical forces, and the stiffness of the extracellular matrix1...

Myofibroblasts have been implicated in scar tissue formation around biomaterials. When biomaterials are implanted as part of a tissue engineered construct, as a sensor, as a prosthetic or even as a drug delivery device, scar formation fibrosis around the biomaterial often interferes with the intended function...
