Zusammenfassung: | Hydroxyapatite (HA) has been used in orthopedic, dental, and maxillofacial surgery as a bone substitute.
Objective. The aim of this investigation was to study the effect of surface topography produced by the presence of microporosity on the response of the rat bone marrow cells, evaluating: cell attachment, proliferation, total protein content, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and bone-like nodule formation.
Methods. Cells were cultured on HA discs manufactured by a combination of uniaxial powder pressing and different sintering conditions, with different percentage of microporosity ( |
