An Ion‐Based Strategy Toward Synergistic Surface Functionalization Combining the Osteogenic Properties and NIR‐Mediated Antibacterial Activity of PEEK

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A multifunctional bioactive PEEK‐based implant (Mn@p/MBG‐SPEEK) is engineered to combat implant‐associated infections while promoting osteogenesis. The hybrid surface activates PI3K/Akt/mTOR and AP‐1 signaling pathways for osteogenic differentiation, while Mn coordination induces electronic coupling that narrows the HOMO‐LUMO energy gap and enhances ...

Boolean Logic‐Based Control Over Recombinant Protein Biomaterial Degradability and Therapeutic Delivery

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Fully recombinant protein‐based biomaterials execute complex Boolean logic for user‐programmable material degradation and concomitant therapeutic cargo release. Biologics, such as growth factors, can be incorporated within the crosslinkers as “drugamers”, while encapsulated cells can be released according to nested YES/OR/AND‐type logical operations ...

Calcium phosphate clusters

Biomaterials, 2001
The potential energy surfaces associated with [Ca3(PO4)2n clusters are analyzed in detail using ab initio calculations for n ranging from one to four. Considering separated clusters, energy criteria favor the so-called Posner's cluster Ca9(PO4)6, which is the core of the actual structural model of amorphous calcium phosphate.

Calcium Phosphate Mineralization

Connective Tissue Research, 1989
Although it is often assumed that the thermodynamically most stable hydroxyapatite is a suitable prototype for biological minerals, it is now generally accepted that other phases such as dicalcium phosphate dihydrate and octacalcium phosphate as well as defect apatites and carbonated apatites may participate.
