Development of a Novel Method for the Strengthening and Toughening of Irradiation-Sterilized Bone Allografts used in Orthopaedic Reconstructions comments

by Thomas Willett Tarik Attia
Over 900,000 bone-grafting procedures are performed each year in the USA 1 . Human bone allografts are used in the orthopaedic reconstruction of skeletal defects resulting from traumatic injuries, diseases and revision arthroplasty however, bone allografts have insufficient mechanical properties 2 and graft fracture is a documented clinical failure mode 3 ...

Characterizing the Mechanisms of ASC-Mediated Adipose Tissue Regeneration in a Syngeneic Murine Implant Model comments

by Lauren Flynn John Walker
Adipose tissue has a high capacity for expansion and regression throughout mammalian life. Nevertheless, following reconstructive surgeries designed to augment adipose depots, or tissue injury, adipose tissue displays limited regenerative capacity, and is instead often replaced with scar tissue...
