Collagen- and Fibronectin-Mimetic Integrin-Specific Surfaces That Promote Osseointegration
Cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix through cell-surface integrin receptors is essential to development, wound healing, and tissue remodeling and therefore represents a central theme in the design of bioactive surfaces that successfully interface with the body. This is especially significant...
