We have previously shown that fibrillogenesis of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins like
Fibronectin and Elastin can be induced when adsorbed on charged polymer surfaces …

Extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins play an essential role during biomineralization in bone
and engineered tissues. In a previous study [1], we showed that calcite preferentially …

Biological mineralization of tissues in living organisms relies on proteins that preferentially
nucleate minerals and control their growth. This process is often referred to as “templating,” …

Biological mineralization relies upon proteins which preferentially nucleate minerals and
control their growth. This process is often referred to as “templating”, but the term is inclusive …

Fibronectin (FN) is a ubiquitous extracellular matrix protein (ECM) protein that is organized
into fibrillar networks by cells through an integrin-mediated process that involves contractile …

The mineralization of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins is an important process in need of
new experimental approaches. We present a study of two subclones of MC3T3-E1 …

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is composed of mixed protein fibers whose precise
composition affects biomineralization. New methods are needed to probe the interactions of …

It is our great pleasure to welcome you to Saint Etienne to join us at the 17th International
Symposium on Biomineralization (BIOMIN XVII). Since 1970, year of the first symposium on …

Biology offers several advantages over traditional systems for the construction of novel
materials. These include self-assembly, template-directed assembly, replication, molecular …
