Cerâmicas bioativas: estado da arte Bioactive ceramics: state of the arts

Química Nova, 2006
Bioactive glasses undergo corrosion with leaching of alkaline ions when exposed to body fluids. This results in the spontaneous formation of a layer of hydroxyapatite (HA), the mineral component of natural bone, which in turn can induce bone growth in ...

Gene activation by bioactive glasses

Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine, 2006
Bioactive glasses have been shown to regulate gene expression in both hard and soft tissue repair. New resorbable bioactive glass constructs are now being developed that can influence gene expression in the local environment by manipulating material properties such as the surface chemistry, topography and the release of dissolution ions. The success of

Nanocellulose Alleviates Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy via Gut Microbiota‐Mediated Bile Acid Homeostasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanocellulose, derived from microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) through sulfuric acid hydrolysis or mechanical grinding to produce CNC or CNF, was tested in a rat ICP model. Particularly, CNF improved gut microbiota composition, reduced secondary bile acid metabolism, and restored bile acid homeostasis through modulation of the gut–liver axis.

Bioactive glass–ceramics containing fluorapatite, xonotlite, cuspidine and wollastonite form apatite faster than their corresponding glasses

Scientific Reports
Crystallisation of bioactive glasses has been claimed to negatively affect the ion release from bioactive glasses. Here, we compare ion release and mineralisation in Tris–HCl buffer solution for a series of glass–ceramics and their parent glasses in the ...
