Engineering biomimetic periosteum with β-TCP scaffolds to promote bone formation in calvarial defects of rats
Abstract Background There is a critical need for the management of large bone defects. The purpose of this study was to engineer a biomimetic periosteum and to combine this with a macroporous β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffold for bone tissue regeneration. Methods Rat bone marrow-derived mesenc...
