Book The Effect of Titanium Surface Roughness on Growth  Differentiation  and Protein Synthesis of Cartilage and Bone Cells

Download or read book The Effect of Titanium Surface Roughness on Growth Differentiation and Protein Synthesis of Cartilage and Bone Cells written by Janet Y. Martin and published by . This book was released on 1996-05-01 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Placement of endosseous dental implants requires the growth and tight opposition of bone tissue to the implant surface. Histomorphological evaluation of various implant systems have shown variable contact between the bone and implant surface. Previous studies have alluded to the fact that various factors probably influence the interactions occurring at the bone-implant interface. These included specific surface characteristics such as chemical composition, surface texture and microgeometry, surface treatments including sterilization methods, presence of surface contaminants, and types of cells interacting at the implant interface. However, the role these factors play in osseointegration is not well known at this time. The object of this study, therefore, was to evaluate the effect of some of these factors on cell response.

Book Tissue Engineering of Cartilage and Bone

Download or read book Tissue Engineering of Cartilage and Bone written by Novartis Foundation and published by Wiley. This book was released on 2003-04-18 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tissue engineering takes advantages of the combined use of cultured living cells and three-dimensional scaffolds to reconstruct adult tissues that are absent or malfunctioning. This book brings together scientists and clinicians working on a variety of approaches for regenerating of damaged or lost cartilage and bone to assess the progress of this dynamic field. In its early days, tissue engineering was driven by material scientists who designed novel bio-resorbable scaffolds on which to seed cells and grow tissues. This ground-breaking work generated high expectations, but there have been significant stumbling blocks holding back the widespread use of these techniques in the clinic. These challenges, and potential ways of overcoming them, are given thorough coverage in the discussions that follow each chapter. The key questions addressed in this book include the following. How good must cartilage repair be for it to be worthwhile? What is the best source of cells for tissue engineering of both bone and cartilage? Which are the most effective cell scaffolds? What are the best preclinical models for these technologies? And when it comes to clinical trials, what sort of outcome measures should be used? With contributions from some of the leading experts in this field, this timely publication will prove essential reading for anyone with an interest in the field of tissue engineering.

Book Tailoring Surfaces  Modifying Surface Composition And Structure For Applications In Tribology  Biology And Catalysis

Download or read book Tailoring Surfaces Modifying Surface Composition And Structure For Applications In Tribology Biology And Catalysis written by Nicholas D Spencer and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2011-03-08 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of this book is surface modification, with the goal of tailoring materials for a specific application. By means of this approach, ideal bulk properties of a material, such as its tensile strength (temperature stability, density, or even cost) can be combined with optimized surface properties, such as hardness, biocompatibility, low or high friction or adhesion, water repellency or wettability, or catalytic activity.The works of the author — many of his crucial papers are included — deal with the understanding and modification of surfaces and span fields including catalysis, analytical surface science, self-assembled monolayers, tribology, biomaterials, superhydrophobicity and polymer coatings.

Book The Effect of Pure Titanium and Titanium Alloy on Osteoblast and Chondrocyte Maturatin In Vitro

Download or read book The Effect of Pure Titanium and Titanium Alloy on Osteoblast and Chondrocyte Maturatin In Vitro written by Jack Lincks and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Implant success is dependent on the interaction of the implant with surrounding tissues. By understanding this, better devices can be developed. Substrate specific information regarding implant surface characteristics and its influence on mesenchymal cell proliferation and differentiation may be helpful in the design of implants to optimize bone growth at the interface. Based on in vivo and in vitro studies, biomaterial composition, surface energy, surface roughness, and surface topography appear to play a major role in implant success. However, in-depth analysis of cellular response to various implant surface characteristics and the ensuing local and systemic factor production remain to be performed. The first aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of two implant characteristics, chemical composition and surface roughness, to modulate various parameters of osteoblast metabolism in vitro. Commercially pure titanium (Ti) and titanium-6 wt.% aluminum-4 wt.% vanadium alloy (Ti-A) disks were machined to achieve a specific roughness through either fine-polishing (S, smooth, Ra 0.2 micronmeter) or wet sand-grinding (R, rough, Ra 3.0 micronmeter). Profilometry and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to determine surface roughness, Auger spectroscopy and FT-IR were also used to characterize the disks. MG63 osteoblast-like human osteosarcoma cells were seeded at 9300 cells/cm2 and cultured to confluence on standard tissue culture polystyrene or the Ti surfaces. Cell morphology was assessed by SEM. Osteoblast cultures were examined for differences in proliferation as measured by cell number, and 3H-thymidine incorporation; differentiation by cell and cell layer alkaline phosphatase specific activity (ALpase) and osteocalcin production; matrix synthesis by proteoglycan sulfation and % collagen production; and cytokine production by transforming growth factor-Beta and prostaglandin E2 production.
