Cobalt‐Doped Biphasic Calcium Phosphate Orchestrates Osteogenesis‐Angiogenesis Signals via Hypoxia‐Mimetic Signaling

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A, Volume 114, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT We engineered a cobalt‐doped biphasic calcium phosphate (CoBCP) by combining monetite‐derived pyrophosphate and β‐tricalcium phosphate (β‐TCP) with lattice‐incorporated Co2+, and evaluated its physicochemical profile and in vitro bioactivity relevant to bone regeneration.
