Stem cell control through tailored ion release profiles from resorbing calcium phosphate materials

Control of stem cell fate has been traditionally enacted by applications of proteins, cytokines, and small molecules. Recent studies suggest that inorganic ions can similarly influence stem cell behaviour and fate. Phosphate based glasses (PBGs) demonstrate tailorable dissolution rates for the local...
