摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for preparing a porous scaffold for tissue engineering. It is another object of the present invention to provide a porous scaffold obtainable by the method as above described, and its use for tissue engineering, cell culture and cell delivery. The method of the invention comprise the steps consisting of a) preparing an alkaline aqueous solution comprising an amount of at least one polysaccharide and one cross-linking agent b) freezing the aqueous solution of step a) c) sublimating the frozen solution of step b). characterized in that step b) is performed before the cross-linking of the polysaccharide occurs in the solution of step a).
摘要:
The present invention refers to an apparatus and a method for the manufacture of a three-dimensional scaffold at low temperatures and the respective use of this method and apparatus.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a coating, a substrate, a method for coating a body and a method for producing the body substrate, such as a dental or a bone implant. The coating has a high degree of mechanical stability and comprises elements, such as Sr based compounds, which optimize the tissue response to the implanted body thus stimulating healing, bone or tissue growth in the vicinity of the implant. An implant coated with this coating has the ability of sustained release of strontium in a non-toxic concentration of strontium in the vicinity of the implant.
摘要:
A bone repair composition and methods thereof include elongated bone fibers made from cortical bone in which a plurality of approximately uniform bone fibers is made into various implant shapes conducive for various applications. The bone fiber compositions may be in the form of a cavity, ball, pellet, wrap, strip, cylinder, cone, putty, gel, or injectable slurry.
摘要:
This invention provides aragonite- and calcite-based scaffolds for the repair, regeneration, enhancement of formation or a combination thereof of cartilage and/or bone, which scaffolds comprise at least two phases, wherein each phase differs in terms of its chemical content, or structure, kits comprising the same, processes for producing solid aragonite or calcite scaffolds and methods of use thereof.
摘要:
Disclosed herein, in certain instances, are methods of inhibiting osteoclast differentiation, bone resorption, bone formation, and bone remodeling in an individual in need thereof, comprising administering to the individual a composition comprising substantially fetal support tissue product including amniotic membrane and umbilical cord or an extract thereof, or a composition comprising substantially isolated HC-HA complex.
摘要:
The invention provides a method for the preparation of bone-polymer composites wherein the mineral portion of the bone is treated with a coupling agent before being incorporated into a biocompatible polymeric matrix. The resulting composites may be used as such or be further processed to form an osteoimplant.
摘要:
In one embodiment, the method comprises providing tissue, preparing the tissue, and treating the tissue to improve remodeling characteristics of the tissue. The tissue may be, for example, cortical bone. Treating the tissue to improve remodeling characteristics may comprise heating the tissue, treating the tissue with a chemical, or other. Heating the tissue may be done in the absence of oxygen and may comprise heating the tissue in a vacuum, heating the tissue in an inert atmosphere, heating the tissue in a reducing atmosphere, coating the tissue with a protective coating and heating the tissue, or other. Further embodiments comprise treating the tissue in supercritical fluids, for example, to dry or virally inactivate the tissue.
摘要:
An implant for the repair of bone and cartilage that includes a cell conductive zone that contains biopolymeric fibers and an osteoconductive zone that contains biopolymeric fibers and calcium-containing mineral particles. The biopolymeric fibers from one zone overlaps with the fibers in the other zone forming a stable physical and mechanical integration of the two zones thus conferring in vivo stability to the implant.
摘要:
Disclosed are methods for producing implantable bone compositions suitable for attaching stem cells thereto, characterized in that bone particles are contacted with an albumin comprising solution. Said bone particles can be mineralized and/or lyophilized bone particles of animal or human origin. Preferably the non-immunogenic albumin comprising solution is lyophilized onto said bone particles. The invention further concerns bone compositions suitable for use in graft implantation obtainable by said methods.
