Osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells is enhanced in a 45S5-supplemented β-TCP composite scaffold: an in-vitro comparison of Vitoss and Vitoss BA.
Since the amount of autologous bone for the treatment of bone defects is limited and harvesting might cause complications, synthetic bone substitutes such as the popular β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) based Vitoss have been developed as an alternative grafting material. β-TCPs exhibit osteoconductiv...
