Apart from the paradigm that cell-biomaterials interaction depends on the adsorption of soluble adhesive proteins we anticipate that upon distinct conditions also other, less soluble ECM proteins such as collagens, associate ...
[EN] Spinal cord injuries (SCIs) result in the loss of sensory and motor function with massive cell death and axon degeneration. We have previously shown that transplantation of spinal cord-derived ependymal progenitor ...

[EN] ABSTRACT
In this Doctoral Thesis, the author carried out the biological evaluation of new silicon-based hybrid (organic-inorganic) coatings, synthesized by sol-gel route, used as osseointegrator and osteoinductor ...
[EN] The HIP post-processing step is required for developing next generation of advanced powder metallurgy titanium alloys for orthopedic and dental applications. The influence of the hot isostatic pressing (HIP) post-processing ...
[EN] Fibrinogen (FG) adsorption on surfaces with controlled fraction of -OH groups was investigated with AFM and correlated to the initial interaction of primary endothelial cells (HUVEC). The -OH content was tailored ...
[EN] The extended use of polymers from renewable resources such as aliphatic polyesters or polyhydroxyalkanoates boosted the necessity to understand their behaviour in an end-of-life scenario. Although they can be degraded ...

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 forces. This assembly allows for ...
[EN] Localized cartilage damage is a common problem for younger patients. This can heal, but often results in a painful condition that requires intervention. A welded-woven three-dimensional polymer fabric has been suggested ...
LICAUSI, MARIE-PIERRE; Igual Muñoz, Anna Neus; Amigó Borrás, Vicente(IOP Publishing: Hybrid Open Access, 2013-09-19)
Titanium and its alloys has been widely used for the design of dental implants because of its biocompatibility, mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. The powder-metallurgy process is a promising alternative to ...
