In vivo evaluation of human fetal cells as allogenic cell source for tissue engineering

Dominique Pioletti, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Corinne Scaletta

The aim of this study was to test the association of fetal bone cells with ceramic reinforced PLA scaffolds for tissue engineering. As animal models, the craniotomy and the femoral condyle approaches in rats were chosen to follow cortical and trabecular bo ...

Design, fabrication, and characterization of a composite scaffold for bone tissue engineering

Melody Swartz, Alice Anna Tomei, Federica Boschetti

Poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) scaffolds have been successfully used in bone tissue engineering, with or without hydroxyapatite (HA) and with a macroporosity given either by simple PLGA sphere packaging and/or by leaching out NaCI. The objective of this ...

Microstimulations at the bone implant interface upregulate osteoclast activation pathway

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Vincent Stadelmann

Peri-implant bone resorption after total joint arthroplasty is a key parameter in aseptic loosening. Implant wear debris and biomechanical aspects have both been demonstrated to be part of the bone resorption process. However, neither of these two paramete ...

Human fetal bone cells associated with ceramic reinforced PLA scaffolds for tissue engineering

Dominique Pioletti, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Corinne Scaletta, Claire Diane Delabarde

Fetal bone cells were shown to have an interesting potential for therapeutic use in bone tissue engineering due to their rapid growth rate and their ability to differentiate into mature osteoblasts in vitro. We describe hereafter their capability to promot ...

Cellular thermoplastic composites with microstructural gradients of fibres and porosity

Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Manuel Bühler

New thermoplastic composites with their composition tailored at the yarn level were proposed and successfully prepared. A specific processing method was developed for composites exhibiting different fibre and porosity concentration gradients. Mechanical pr ...

Bone reactions to controlled loading of endosseous implants: a pilot study

John Botsis, Joël Cugnoni

Objectives: To validate an experimental setup designed to apply load onto bone tissue using osseointegrated implants in a rabbit model. Specifically, (1) to design an apparatus capable of generating controlled forces, (2) to assess implant placement, maint ...

Implants delivering bisphosphonate locally increase periprosthetic bone density in an osteoporotic sheep model. A pilot study

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Vincent Stadelmann

It is a clinical challenge to obtain a sufficient orthopedic implant fixation in weak osteoporotic bone. When the primary implant fixation is poor, micromotions occur at the bone-implant interface, activating osteoclasts, which leads to implant loosening. ...

Hematopoietic Stem Cells Reversibly Switch from Dormancy to Self-Renewal during Homeostasis and Repair

Anne Wilson, Sandra Eloise Kjeldsen, Cyrille Dunant, Maike Jaworski

Bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are crucial to maintain lifelong production of all blood cells. Although HSCs divide infrequently, it is thought that the entire HSC pool turns over every few weeks, suggesting that HSCs regularly enter and exit ...
