Relationships between cartilage thickness and subchondral bone mineral density in non-osteoarthritic and severely osteoarthritic knees: In vivo concomitant 3D analysis using CT arthrography

Objective: To test whether subchondral bone mineral density (sBMD) and cartilage thickness (CTh) of femoral condyles are correlated in knees without and with severe medial femorotibial osteoarthritis (OA), using a subregional analysis with computerized tom ...

Human bone progenitor cells for clinical application: what kind of immune reaction does fetal xenograft tissue trigger in immuno-competent rats?

Dominique Pioletti, Lee Ann Laurent-Applegate, Tanja Cloé Hausherr

The potential of human fetal bone cells for successful bone regeneration has been shown in vivo. In particular, it has been demonstrated that the seeding of these cells in porous poly-(L-lactic acid)/ ß-tricalcium phosphate scaffolds improved the bone form ...

Time course of bone screw fixation following a local delivery of zoledronate in a rat femoral model – a micro-finite element analysis

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Ulrike Kettenberger, Adeliya Latypova

A good fixation of osteosynthesis implants is crucial for a successful bone healing but often difficult to achieve in osteoporotic patients. One possible solution to this issue is the local delivery of bisphosphonates in direct proximity to the implants, A ...

Study of Cell Adhesion and Tracking Methods for in Vivo Cell Localisation in a Tissue-Engineering Scaffold

Tanja Cloé Hausherr, Thaïs Cléa Laura Séverine Clouet

Bone fracture healing problems, because of the loss of tissue regeneration, can affect many old or multi-pathologic patients around the world. Among the therapeutic strategies, bone substitutes, such as poly-(L-lactitve acid) with 5% wt. % ß-tricalcium pho ...

Prediction of spatio-temporal bone formation in scaffold by diffusion equation

Dominique Pioletti, Arne Christian Vogel, Lalaonirina Rakotomanana Ravelonarivo, Alireza Roshan Ghias

Developing a successful bone tissue engineering strategy entails translation of experimental findings to clinical needs. A major leap forward towards this goal is developing a quantitative tool to predict spatial and temporal bone formation in scaffold. We ...

Biomechanical Aspects of Osteogenesis in Load-Bearing Tissue Engineering Scaffolds

Alireza Roshan Ghias

There is increasing evidence that mechanical stimulation affects the fate of tissue engineering scaffolds. In clinical situations, it is critical to accelerate bone formation inside the scaffold to reduce the recovery time and increase the chance of succes ...

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 ...

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. ...
