Adverse effects of bone morphogenic protein-2 during osseointegration
Modifications of biomaterial surface properties are employed to increase osteoblast differentiation and bone formation. Microtextured metallic surfaces promote osteoblast differentiation and high surface energy- achieved by controlling surface hydrocarbon contamination- increases osteoblast differen...
