This work proposes the use of nonporous, smart, and stimulus responsive chitosan-based
scaffolds for bone tissue engineering applications. The overall vision is to use …

The biological properties of synthetic calcium phosphate bioceramics have made them the
third choice of material for bone reconstructive surgery, after autologous bone and allografts …

summary Autologous iliac crest bone is used to close the residual alveolar bone defect in
cleft palate patients during late mixed dentition. Surgery involves physical and …

Alumina ceramics have excellent mechanical and biocompatible properties, but are bioinert
and hence have no bone‐bonding properties. We took a tissue‐engineering approach in an …

Current methods of treating critical size bone defects include autografts and allografts,
however, both present major limitations including donor-site morbidity, risk of disease …

Objective To determine whether a biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) ceramic
supplemented with fresh autologous bone marrow (BMA) can give rise to adequate bone to …

Nanocrystalline calcium phosphates are very interesting candidates as scaffolds for bone
tissue engineering. These materials show excellent in vivo biocompatibility, cell proliferation …

In the early 1970s, bioceramics were employed to perform singular, biologically inert roles,
such as to provide parts for bone replacement. The realization that cells and tissues perform …

Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are promising candidates for cell
therapy and tissue engineering. However, the life span of hMSCs during in vitro culture is …

Osteoblasts are cells specialized in extracellular matrix production and mineralization. In
collaboration with osteoclasts which are bone-resorbing cells, osteoblasts regulate bone …
