Biological responses of brushite-forming Zn- and ZnSr- substituted beta-tricalcium phosphate bone cements

Biological responses of brushite-forming Zn- and ZnSr- substituted beta-tricalcium phosphate bone cements

The core aim of this study was to investigate zinc (Zn)- and zinc and strontium (ZnSr)-containing brushite-forming beta-tricalcium phosphate (TCP) cements for their effects on proliferation and differentiation of osteoblastic-like cells (MC3T3-E1 cell line) as well as for their in vivo behaviour in...
