Our new paper on osteogenic properties of bioactive glasses published in Int. J. Mol. Sci.
Our paper “Bioactive Glass (BG) ICIE16 Shows Promising Osteogenic Properties Compared to Crystallized 45S5-BG”, in collaboration with the group of Dr. Fabian Westhauser (Heidelberg University Hospital) and Prof. Leena Hupa (Åbo Akademi University, Turku, Finland) has been published (Open Access) Int. J. Mol. Sci., special issue “Biological Basis of Musculoskeletal Regeneration” . From our Institute participated in this study Ms Marcela Arango-Ospina (PhD student) and Prof. Aldo R. Boccaccini. This paper reports for the first time a direct comparison between the two silicate bioactive glasses 45S5 and ICIE16 after they have been submitted to the thermal process required for fabricating scaffolds by sintering, focusing on the osteogenic properties by in vitro tests with human mesenchymal stromal cells [1].
