Bone Formation from Porcine Dental Germ Stem Cells on Surface Modified Polybutylene Succinate Scaffolds
Abay, Nergis; Gurel Pekozer, Gorke; Ramazanoglu, Mustafa; Kose, Gamze Torun (Hindawi Limited, 2016)
Designing and providing a scaffold are very important for the cells in tissue engineering. Polybutylene succinate (PBS) has high potential as a scaffold for bone regeneration due to its capacity in cell proliferation and differentiation. Also, stem cells from 3rd molar tooth germs were favoured in this study due to their developmentally and replicatively immature nature. In this study, porcine dental germ stem cells (pDGSCs) seeded PBS scaffolds were used to investigate the effects of surface modification w...
Bone generation on PHBV matrices: an in vitro study
Kose, GT; Korkusuz, F; Korkusuz, P; Purali, N; Ozkul, A; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat (2003-12-01)
Bone formation was investigated in vitro by culturing rat marrow stromal osteoblasts in biodegradable, macroporous poly(3-hydroxybutyric acid-co-3-bydroxyvaleric acid) (PHBV) matrices over a period of 60 days. Foams were prepared after solvent evaporation and solute leaching. PHBV solutions with different concentrations were prepared in chloroform: dichloromethane (1:2, v/v). In order to create a matrix with high porosity and uniform pore sizes, sieved sucrose crystals (300-500 mum) were used. PHBV foams we...
Bone tissue engineering on patterned collagen films: an in vitro study
Ber, S; Kose, GT; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat (2005-05-01)
This study aimed at guiding osteoblast cells from rat bone marrow on chemically modified and patterned collagen films to study the influence of pattern, on cell guidance. The films were stabilized using different treatment methods including crosslinking with carbodiimide (EDC) and glutaraldehyde, dehydrothermal treatment (DHT), and deposition of calcium phosphate on the collagen membrane.
Bone tissue generation on biodegradable polymeric scaffolds
Torun Köse, Gamze; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat; Korkusuz, Feza; Department of Biotechnology (2002)
In the present study, tissue engineered bone was produced on calcium phosphate loaded collagen and PHBV8 matrices. Osteoblasts isolated from rat bone marrow were characterized by light microscopy, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, osteocalcin determination assay, and Western blots for integrin. Population doubling time of the cells was found as 50 ± 2 h at 37 °C in a CO2 incubator. PHBV8 foams iiiwere treated with rf-oxygen plasma to modify their surface chemistry and hydrophilicity to increase the reatt...
Bone mineral density of lumbar spine and proximal femur in healthy males
Akın, Serhat; Korkusuz, F; Ungan, M; Senkoylu, A (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2004-01-01)
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between BMD and age at lumbar spine and proximal femur in Turkish males. Two hundred ninety healthy males (aged 20-59 years) were investigated. BMD of the lumbar spine had its peak at ages 30-39, however, the peak for the proximal femur was between the ages of 20 and 29. There was a significant decrease in BMD at proximal femur after these peak values with increasing age. In conclusion, there was a significant correlation between age and the proximal...
