TLDR
The results suggested that the introduction of such nanoscale structures in combination with micro-/submicro-scale roughness improves osteoblast differentiation and local factor production, which indicates the potential for improved implant osseointegration in vivo.

Dexamethasone-Loaded Bioactive Coatings on Medical Grade Stainless Steel Promote Osteointegration.

TL;DR: In this article, a multilayer bioactive coating based on carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and dexamethasone (DEX) was prepared on medical-grade stainless steel (AISI 316LVM).

Bone marrow stromal cells are sensitive to discrete surface alterations in build and post-build modifications of bioinspired Ti6Al4V 3D-printed in vitro testing constructs.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors evaluated the relative contributions of build parameters and post-manufacturing modification techniques to cell responses that impact osseointegration in vivo by culturing human bone marrow stromal cells (MSCs).

ElectricalPolarizationofTitanium SurfacesfortheEnhancementof OsteoblastDifferentiation

Robert Rettew
TL;DR: Results show that electricalpolarization applied directly through Ti substrates on which the cells are growing in theabsence of applied electrical currents may increase osteoblast differentiation and localfactor production in a voltage-dependent manner.

Mechanical properties and the hierarchical structure of bone

TL;DR: Further investigations of mechanical properties at the "materials level", in addition to the studies at the 'structural level' are needed to fill the gap in present knowledge and to achieve a complete understanding of the mechanical properties of bone.

Influence of surface characteristics on bone integration of titanium implants. A histomorphometric study in miniature pigs.

TL;DR: The extent of bone-implant interface is positively correlated with an increasing roughness of the implant surface, and hydroxylapatite (HA)-coated implants with 60-70% showed signs of resorption.

Genetic regulation of osteoclast development and function

TL;DR: The past five years have witnessed important insights into osteoclast formation and function and many of these discoveries have been made through genetic experiments that involved the rare hereditary disorder osteopetrosis.

Enhanced functions of osteoblasts on nanophase ceramics

TL;DR: The results of the present study provided the first evidence of enhanced long-term (on the order of days to weeks) functions of osteoblasts cultured on nanophase ceramics, and clearly represent a unique and promising class of orthopaedic/dental implant formulations with improved osseointegrative properties.

Effect of titanium surface roughness on proliferation, differentiation, and protein synthesis of human osteoblast-like cells (MG63)

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that surface roughness alters osteoblast proliferation, differentiation, and matrix production in vitro and suggests that implant surfaceroughness may play a role in determining phenotypic expression of cells in vivo.
