Most natural glasses are based on silicates and for thousands of years only alkali/alkaline …

Surface morphology of titanium (Ti) implants plays an important role in regulating cell
behaviors at the interface. The purpose of our study was to investigate the effect of surface …

Stem cell-based therapy is a significant topic in regenerative medicine, with a predominant
role being played by human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). The hMSCs have been …

It has been more than 50 years since the word “bioactivity” was first used to describe one of
the functions of ceramics and glasses. Osborn et al. 1) defined “biologically active materials” …
