Assessment of Collagen-Based Nanostructured Biomimetic Systems with a Co-Culture of Human Bone-Derived Cells

Cells, 2021
Osteoporosis is a worldwide disease resulting in the increase of bone fragility and enhanced fracture risk in adults. In the context of osteoporotic fractures, bone tissue engineering (BTE), i.e., the use of bone substitutes combining biomaterials, cells,

Osteoblast biology: developmental origin and interactive nature of osteoblasts

, 2021
Bone formation occurs throughout life to support growth and bone remodeling in response to mechanical forces, metabolic needs, and tissue repair upon injury. The physiological requirement for continuous bone renewal to accommodate remodeling necessitates recruitment, proliferation, and differentiation of bone-forming osteoblasts to counteract the ...
