During the last decade, extensive research has been performed in the field of orthopedic medicine to develop cell-based therapies for the restoration of injured bone tissue. We previously demonstrated that human primary fetal bone cells (HFBCs) associated ...
The passive biomechanical behavior of blood vessels is generally modeled by a parallel arrangement of elastin and collagen, with collagen recruitment depending on vessel strain. We experimentally determined the collagen recruitment distribution using confo ...
The goal of this study was to develop a method that identifies optimal elastic modulus, Poisson’s ratio, porosity and permeability values for mechanically stressed bone substitute. It was hypothesized that porous bone substitute that favors the transport o ...
