Influence of Calcium Ion-Modified Implant Surfaces in Protein Adsorption and Implant Integration
(Springer, 2021-04-21)
Background Calcium (Ca) is a well-known element in bone metabolism and blood coagulation. Here, we investigate the link between the protein adsorption pattern and the in vivo responses of surfaces modified with calcium ...
Protein adsorption/desorption dynamics on Ca-enriched titanium surfaces: biological implications
(Springer, 2021-08-27)
Calcium ions are used in the development of biomaterials for the promotion of coagulation, bone regeneration, and implant osseointegration. Upon implantation, the time-dependent release of calcium ions from titanium implant ...
Correlation between biological responses in vitro and in vivo to Ca-doped sol-gel coatings assessed using proteomic analysis
(Elsevier, 2022-12)
Poor correlation between the results of in vitro testing and the subsequent in vivo experiments hinders the design of biomaterials. Thus, new characterisation methods are needed. This study used proteomic and histological ...
Development and characterisation of strontium-doped sol-gel coatings to optimise the initial bone regeneration processes
(Elsevier, 2022-12)
Strontium plays an important role in bone regeneration; it promotes the differentiation and maturation of os-teoblasts and inhibits the activity of osteoclasts. Our principal objective in this study was to formulate new ...
Proteomic Analysis of Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Monocyte Co-Cultures Exposed to a Bioactive Silica-Based Sol–Gel Coating
(American Chemical Society, 2023-05)
New methodologies capable of extensively analyzing the cell-material interactions are necessary to improve current in vitro characterization methods, and proteomics is a viable alternative. Also, many studies are focused ...
