Analysis of the effects of tissue-specific extracellular matrix on the adipogenic differentiation of human adipose-derived stromal cells in culture
comments
The extracellular matrix ECM is an intricate and complex network of proteins and polysaccharides, with tissue-specific structure and composition that regulates a range of cell behaviours and functions...
Purpose The objective of this project was to deliver a unique malleable DNA-based hydrogel scaffold that can easily be injected by orthopedic surgeons, will set and integrate to the injured site after placement, and will be resorbed over time as it induces rapid in situ tissue regeneration via sustained delivery of osteoinductive drugs...
Titanium and titanium alloys are commonly employed materials for hard tissue replacements in bones and dental implants, thanks to their biocompatibility and high corrosion resistance...
