Surface Engineering Of Titanium Based Metal For Cell Interaction by Roshasnorlyza , Hazan

“…This research focused on the titanium surface modification with nanotopography morphology of TiO2 nanotubes. Cell-metal interaction between TiO2 nanotubes and PA6 bone marrow stromal cells were studied to understand the TiO2 nanotubes parameters that affect the cell growth. …”

Cluster-assembled zirconia substrates promote long-term differentiation and functioning of human islets of Langerhans by Galli, A., Maffioli, E., Sogne, E., Moretti, S., Di Cairano, E., Negri, A., Nonnis, S., Norata, Giuseppe, Bonacina, F., Borghi, F., Podestà, A., Bertuzzi, F., Milani, P., Lenardi, C., Tedeschi, G., Perego, C.

“…In this paper we focus on the biophysical properties of the extracellular environment and exploit the cluster-assembled zirconia substrates with tailored roughness to mimic the nanotopography of the extracellular matrix. We demonstrate that ß-cells can perceive nanoscale features of the substrate and can convert these stimuli into mechanotransductive processes which promote long-term in vitro human islet culture, thus preserving ß-cell differentiation and function. …”

Three-dimensional printing of polymeric scaffolds with micro/nano-scale topographies for cartilage and bone tissue engineering. by Prasopthum, Aruna

“…Herein, a novel, facile and low-cost 3D printing approach (so-called ‘micro-extrusion printing’) for two printing ink formulations, allowing direct incorporation of defined ECM-mimicking micro-/nanotopographies onto the 3D printed strut surfaces, was developed. …”
