The development of tissue engineering in the field of orthopaedic surgery is now booming.
Two fields of research in particular are emerging: the association of osteo-inductive factors …

In this review, the appropriate use of cell culture to evaluate substrate effects on osteoblast
behavior during the process of osseointegration has been considered in the context of …

We quantitatively evaluated the adhesion of human osteoblasts on orthopedic metallic
substrates (Ti6Al4V alloy) with various surface roughnesses at several times after …

The relationship between surface characteristics of titanium and initial interactions of
titanium-osteoblasts was investigated. Titanium plates were heat-treated in different …

Ti being bioinert shows poor bone cell adhesion with an intervening fibrous capsule. Ti
could be made bioactive by several methods including growing in situ TiO2 layer on Ti …

The biocompatibility of two polymers for potential use as orthopaedic implant materials in an
isoelastic hip prosthesis was investigated. The interactions of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) …

Using a variety of cell types, cell attachment and growth was studied on prospective
(polyethersulphone (PES) and polyetheretherketone) and currently used (titanium 318 alloy …

This work investigates the role of the surface roughness of Ti6Al4V on the cell morphology,
proliferation and adhesion, and in particular on the variation of the expression of cell …

The shape memory effect, superelasticity, and good damping properties, uncommon in other
implant alloys, make the nickel-titanium shape memory metal alloy (Nitinol or NiTi) a …

The initial interaction of the human osteoblast‐like cell line Saos‐2 with orthopaedic implant
materials was analyzed to determine the mechanism by which these cells adhere to implant …
