In comparison to fibers without the glass, the material showed improved hydrophilicity and mechanical properties, better bioactive ion release to aid angiogenesis, and exhibited a surface roughness that enabled good cell adhesion and spreading after just one day of culture.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur method of producing these materials is efficient, cost-effective and versatile,\u201d adds Nad\u00e8ge. \u201cWhat\u2019s more, we can easily modify their surface properties by changing the ormoglass composition, or transfer the protocol to other polymer structures prepared by different processing methods, so a wide range of biomaterials that could trigger different cellular responses could be produced for different applications.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This offers the possibility to expand the material\u2019s application to additional tissue types depending on architecture and composition, such as an angiogenic coating for regeneration of muscles, or a tube coating for arterial replacement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ibecbarcelona.eu\/biomaterials\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Biomaterials for Regenerative Therapies <\/a>group at the\u00a0Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ibecbarcelona.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">IBEC<\/a>) \u2013located at the Barcelona Science Park (PCB)\u2013 and their collaborators at Wageningen University in the Netherlands and Warsaw University of Technology, Poland describe a hybrid material which faithfully mimics the structure of bone\u2019s extracellular matrix and which therefore offers the correct interactions between constituents to encourage cells to behave in the way required to successfully regenerate tissue.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-50271","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 -
