The formation of cranial bone requires the differentiation of osteoblasts from undifferentiated mesenchymal cells. The balance between osteoblast recruitment, proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis in sutures between cranial bones is essential for calvarial bone formation. The mechanisms that control human osteoblasts during normal calvarial bone formation and premature suture ossificatio...

both anorganic bovine bone (abb) and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-tcp) are used in clinical practice as bone substitute materials, but there is limited data comparing these two materials in standardized defects. the aim of this study was to histologically evaluate the effectiveness of abb and β-tcp in the healing of experimentally induced bone defects.eighteen bone defects were created on the calv...

Previously our laboratory documented increases in calvaria bone volume and thickness in mice exposed to 15 days of spaceflight aboard the NASA Shuttle mission STS-131. However, the tissues were not processed for gene expression studies to determine what bone formation pathways might contribute to these structural adaptations. Therefore, this study was designed to investigate both the structural...

the purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of two types of bone substitutes, bio-oss and nuoss, for repair of bone defects.this study was performed on the calvaria of 14 new zealand rabbits. the 6mm critical size defect (csd) models of bone regeneration were used. three csds were created in each surgical site. the first defect was filled with nuoss, the second one with bio-oss and t...

PURPOSE In spite of their osteoconductive potential, the biomaterials used as substitutes for an autologous graft do not show osteoinductive or osteogenic potential. This study evaluated the association of adult mesenchymal stem cells derived from adipose tissue with xenogenic bone graft in bone regeneration in rabbit calvaria. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mesenchymal stem cells were harvested from ...

Background and Aim: Autogenous bone grafts are considered the gold standard although they have several disadvantages, leading to a search for suitable alternative graft biomaterials. This study evaluates the histological and histomorphometric properties of regenerated bone in defects in rabbits following the application of two commercially available xenografts (Bio-Oss and Osteon). Materials a...
