Effects of TiO2 nanotubes with different diameters on gene expression and osseointegration of implants in minipigs.

TLDR
TiO(2) nanotubes can modulate bone formation events at the bone-implant interface as to reach favorable molecular response and osseointegration and the diameters of nanot tubes can be precisely controlled in order to obtain better bone formation.

Nanotubes Functionalized with BMP2 Knuckle Peptide Improve the Osseointegration of Titanium Implants in Rabbits.

TL;DR: The surface functionalization of TiO2 nanotubes with BMP-2 knuckle peptide was beneficial for osseointegration and this approach could be further developed to improve Ti-based implants for various applications.

Extension of hydrophilicity stability by reactive plasma treatment and wet storage on TiO 2 nanotube surfaces for biomedical implant applications

TL;DR: Anodized surfaces modified by reactive plasma and stored in DI water suggest better hydrophilicity stability, biocompatibility, ALP activity and achievement of crystalline phase alteration, indicating future potential use on biomedical implants.

Cell Differentiation on Nanoscale Features of a Titanium Surface: Effects of Deposition Time in NaOH Solution

TL;DR: In this article, the nanoscale modification of a titanium implant surface by NaOH treatment affects osteoblastic differentiation of bone marrow cells and enhances mineralization, and the results showed that modification of titanium surfaces with NaOH could be an effective method of improving their biological properties.

Matrix elasticity directs stem cell lineage specification.

TL;DR: Naive mesenchymal stem cells are shown here to specify lineage and commit to phenotypes with extreme sensitivity to tissue-level elasticity, consistent with the elasticity-insensitive commitment of differentiated cell types.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Novel Zinc Finger-Containing Transcription Factor Osterix Is Required for Osteoblast Differentiation and Bone Formation

TL;DR: It is proposed that Runx2/Cbfa1-expressing preosteoblasts are still bipotential cells, because Osx null preostEoblasts express typical chondrocyte marker genes, and Osx acts downstream of Runx 2/C bfa1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Titanium oxide nanotube arrays prepared by anodic oxidation

TL;DR: In this article, the average tube diameter, ranging in size from 25 to 65 nm, was found to increase with increasing anodizing voltage, while the length of the tube was found independent of anodization time.
Journal ArticleDOI

Osteoinduction, osteoconduction and osseointegration.

TL;DR: Osseointegration is the stable anchorage of an implant achieved by direct bone-to-implant contact in craniofacial implantology and this mode of anchorage is the only one for which high success rates have been reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stem cell fate dictated solely by altered nanotube dimension

TL;DR: Altering the dimensions of nanotubular-shaped titanium oxide surface structures independently allowed either augmented human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC) adhesion or a specific differentiation of hMSCs into osteoblasts by using only the geometric cues, absent of osteogenic inducing media.
