Magnesium (Mg) is the fourth most abundant element in the human body and is important in
terms of specific osteogenesis functions. Here, we provide a comprehensive review of the …

Magnesium ions are directly involved in numerous biological mechanisms; for example, they
play an important part in the regulation of ion channels, DNA stabilization, enzyme activation …

The role of metal ions in the body and particularly in the formation, regulation and
maintenance of bone is only just starting to be unravelled. The role of some ions, such as …

The importance of Mg in the human body, its key role in bone tissue development, in
addition to its application to improve and modify physical, thermal, and mechanical …

Background Bioactive glasses are traditionally associated with bonding to bone through a
hydroxycarbonate apatite (HCA) surface layer but the release of active ions is more …

A 58S bioglass with a composition in the ternary system 58SiO2-33CaO-9P2O5 (wt.%) was
prepared by an innovation sol-gel process in which a small amount of ammonia was used to …

The bioactive glass (BG) system of 60SiO 2–4P 2 O 5–31CaO-xSrO-(5-x) ZnO (0≤ x≤ 5%
mol) was synthesized by sol-gel route. The role of zinc contents and strontium on the in-vitro …

The cellular response to hypoxia (low oxygen pressure) is vital for skeletal tissue
development and regeneration. Numerous processes, including progenitor cell recruitment …

In the current investigation, the bioactive glasses (BGs) in 60SiO 2–26CaO-4P 2 O 5–5SrO-
xMgO-(5-x) Ag 2 O systems (x= 0–5 mol.%) were fabricated via the sol-gel method. The …

We investigated the structure–property relationships in a series of alkali-free phosphosilicate
glass compositions co-doped with Zn 2+ and Sr 2+. The emphasis was laid on …
