Biological response of human osteosarcoma cells to Si3N4-doped Bioglasses

In vitro and in vivo studies have recently shown that silicon nitride (Si3N4) is an osseoconductive and potential osseoinductive biomaterial. Even though the amount of bone mineral produced by Si3N4 was inferior when compared to commercial Bioglass®, it strongly stimulated the production of extracel...
