Building better bone grafts: Nanofibrous scaffolds activate two major collagen receptors in bone cells
Graphical summary. Credit: Bioactive Materials (2024). DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2024.08.017 Approximately 2.2 million bone graft surgeries are performed around the world each year, and the most standard treatment involves using a patient’s own bone to transplant teeth or repair and reconstruct parts of the mouth, face, and skull. This is an autograft technique used. Considering the disadvantages of autografts, including the need…
