Fibronectin Functionalized Hydroxyapatite Coatings: Improving Dermal Fibroblast Adhesion In Vitro and In Vivo

Skin‐penetrating devices including intraosseous transcutaneous amputation prostheses (ITAP) and external fixator pins rely on a skin‐implant seal to prevent infection. In this study, we assess the effectiveness of fibronectin (Fn) functionalized hydroxyapatite (HA) coatings for promoting dermal fibr...
