We are not aware of any other bilateral human postmortem analysis that so clearly illustrates the effect of stem stiffness on bone remodeling.C. Anderson Engh Jr. and Christi Sychters and Engh Charles Sr.The Journal of ArthroplastyEngh CA, Sychterz C, Engh C. Factors Affecting Femoral Bone...
These bone resident MSCs provide a range of growth factors (GF) and cytokines to support cell growth following injury. These GFs include a group of proteins and peptides produced by different cells which are regulators of important cell functions such as division, migration, and differentiation. ...
BONE remodelingOSTEOPONTINOSTEOPROTEGERINCYTOKINESA flare up of the inflammation within an atherosclerotic plaque may result in plaque rupture that can lead to acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Another potential source of inflammation in ACS can be the primary ischemia and necrosis of ...
14 Factors Affecting the Success of Dental Implants Carlos Nelson Elias Instituto Militar de Engenharia, Biomaterials Laboratory Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil 1. Introduction Dental implants are fully placed in the bone in order to replace the natural root of the tooth and allow the installation of ...
To investigate the blood levels of bone remodeling factors (RANKL, OPG and Bone-ALP) in psoriatic arthritis patients. Included in this study were 27 patients with psoriatic arthritis (CASPAR classification criteria) and 20 healthy subjects. The RANKL , OPG and Bone-ALP levels have been quantified...
inflammatory cell infiltration, thickening of the vascular wall, and destruction of the vascular inner layer, narrowing or even obstruction of the vascular cavity, affecting the microcirculation and blood supply of the wound, causing a series of skin problems and the delayed wound healing for a ...
Osteoclast interactions with osteoblasts are also vital in the remodeling phase; M-CSF, RANKL, TNF-α, and osteal macrophages impact this relationship [2]. Therapeutic growth factors are needed to enhance bone or cartilage repair in some conditions where healing is complicated or delayed. Traumatic...
Figure 2. Spider silk coatings enhance the bioactivity of biomaterials by improving cell attachment and growth, explicitly stimulating cells (e.g., through incorporated peptides, growth factors, etc.) or releasing incorporated biologically active substances or drugs. Furthermore, spider silk coatings co...
A complementary theoretical and experimental investigation is proposed to test two hypotheses regarding the mechanical adaptation of cortical bone: (1) changes in a bone's homeostatic mechanical state relate to the spatial pattern of a remodeling response and that (2) quantification of these changes ...
