Evaluation of Functionalized Biopolymers as a Step Toward Targeted Therapy of Osteoporosis

Evaluation of Functionalized Biopolymers as a Step Toward Targeted Therapy of Osteoporosis

The work presented in this thesis focuses on the development of strategies and smart bioactive materials for the treatment of osteoporosis. High and low molecular weight soluble hyaluronic acid-bisphosphonate (HA-BP) derivatives were investigated for their ability to inhibit osteoclasts. Low molecul...
