Prediction of bone density around orthopedic implants delivering bisphosphonate

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Vincent Stadelmann

The fixation of an orthopedic implant depends strongly upon its initial stability. Peri-implant bone may resorb shortly after the surgery. This resorbtion is directly followed by new bone formation and implants fixation strengthening, the so-called seconda ...

Prediction and optimization of bone density around orthopedic implants delivering bisphosphonate

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Vincent Stadelmann

The fixation of an orthopedic implant depends strongly upon its initial stability. Peri-implant bone may resorb shortly after the surgery. This resorption is directly followed by new bone formation and implants fixation strengthening, the so-called seconda ...

The role of Myc in bone metabolism

Raphaëlle Stuer

Various studies have proven the involvement of Myc in cell growth and proliferation but also cell transformation and tumorigenesis. Since regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation is mandatory in bone metabolism, we investigated the role of Myc ...

The Matricellular Protein Periostin Is Required for Sost Inhibition and the Anabolic Response to Mechanical Loading and Physical Activity

Vincent Stadelmann

Periostin (gene Postn) is a secreted extracellular matrix protein involved in cell recruitment and adhesion and plays an important role in odontogenesis. In bone, periostin is preferentially expressed in the periosteum, but its functional significance rema ...

In vitro characterization of immune-related properties of human fetal bone cells for potential tissue engineering applications

Dominique Pioletti, Corinne Scaletta, Lee Ann Laurent-Applegate

We describe herein some immunological properties of human fetal bone cells recently tested for bone tissue engineering applications. Adult mesenchymal stem cells and adult osteoblasts were included in the study for comparison. Surface markers involved in b ...

Arterial remodeling in response to increased blood flow using a constituent-based model

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Alkiviadis Tsamis

Previous theoretical models of arterial remodeling in response to changes in blood flow were based on the assumption that material properties of the arterial wall remain unchanged during the remodeling process. According to experimental findings, however, ...

Bone healing induced by local delivery of an engineered parathyroid hormone prodrug

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell

Regenerative medicine requires innovative therapeutic designs to accommodate high morphogen concentrations in local depots, provide their sustained presence, and enhance cellular invasion and directed differentiation. Here we present an example for inducin ...

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 ...

Study of new sheep bone and Zn/Ca ratio around TiAlV screw: PIXE-RBS analysis

Philippe Buffat, Danièle Laub

This study reports on in vivo particle induced X-ray emission (PIXE) measurements combined with Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS) analyses of new remodeled sheep bone formed around TiAIV screws. The implants (screws) were anodized by a modified ...

Cellular gradient polymer composites

Dominique Pioletti, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Vincent Stadelmann, Manuel Bühler

The invention relates to a foamed polymer composite product incorporating several fillers and/or fibres and several pores characterized by the fact that it shows two distinct gradients, namely a filler and/or fibre density gradient and a pore density gradi ...
