Our paper on nanoscale bioactive glasses published in Nanomedicine

Our paper entitled “Nanoscale bioactive glass activates osteoclastic differentiation of RAW 264.7 cells” [1], authors: R. Detsch, M. Rübner, P. L. Strissel, D. Mohn, E. Strasser, W. J. Stark, R. Strick, and A. R. Boccaccini, has been published in the Special Focus Issue: “Nano-biomaterials at work: revolutionizing healthcare (Part I)” co-edited by A. Pandit and D. I. Zeugolis in the journal Nanomedicine. The paper is the result of collaborative research involving our Institute, the Department of Gynaecology & Obstetrics, Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, University-Clinic Erlangen, the Institute for Chemical & Bioengineering, ETH Zurich, Switzerland, and the Department of Transfusion Medicine & Haemostaseology, University-Clinic Erlangen. It represents the first study that examined increasing concentrations of nanoscale bioactive glass (flame spray derived) of nominal 45S5 composition and their influence on osteoclast differentiation.
