Angiogenesis plays a critical role within the human body, from the early stages of life (ie,
embryonic development) to life-threatening diseases (eg, cancer, heart attack, stroke, wound …

Bioactive glasses were discovered in 1969 and provided for the first time an alternative to
nearly inert implant materials. Bioglass formed a rapid, strong, and stable bond with host …

Bioceramics have been used for the replacement and repair of damaged hard tissues for
about 50 years, in which the mechanical properties and biocompatibility of the materials are …

One of the biggest challenges in regenerative medicine is promoting sufficient
vascularisation of tissue-engineered constructs. One approach to overcome this challenge is …

There is an ongoing profound shift in using glass as a primarily passive material to one that
instills active properties. We believe and demonstrate that bioactive glasses (BGs) and glass …

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 …

The implementation of a powder bed selective laser processing (PBSLP) technique for
bioactive ceramics, including selective laser sintering and melting (SLM/SLS), a laser …

Bioactive glasses (BGs) are widely used for bone regeneration, and allow the incorporation
of different ions with therapeutic properties into the glass network. Amongst the different ions …

Repairing critical size bone defects (CSBD) is a major clinical challenge and requires
effective intervention by biomaterial scaffolds. Inspired by the fact that the cartilaginous …

Impaired angiogenesis is one of the predominant reasons for non-healing diabetic wounds.
Cobalt is well known for its capacity to induce angiogenesis by stabilizing hypoxia-inducible …
