[Biocompatibility and osteoinductive properties of collagen and fibronectin hydrogel impregnated with rhBMP-2].

The study aimed to demonstrate the biocompatibility and osteoinductive properties of a hydrogel based on highly purified collagen and fibronectin impregnated with rhBMP-2. In vitro and in vivo experiments have shown that the minimum effective dosage of rhBMP-2 is 10 μg/ml. The cytocompatibility of the collagen-fibronectin gel was determined using MTT test and staining with PKH-26.

[The prospects of collagen as a basis for curable and activated osteoplastic materials].

In the review, the structure and biological properties of collagen, variants of its production from natural sources and purification are considered. Methods for modifying the physico-mechanical properties of collagen to create a curable, highly purified collagen hydrogel are described. The advantages of a cured highly purified collagen hydrogel as a basis for osteoplastic material and a means of delivery of growth factors are indicated.

[Differences in the cytocompatibility of bone-plastic materials from xenogeneic hydroxyapatite with stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth and adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells].

Aim: To compare the cytocompatibility of osteoplastic materials used in dentistry with stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) and adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSC).

Material And Methods: Materials of the brands 'Bio-Oss', 'Indost', 'Bioplast', 'Viscoll' and 'Trikafor' were selected for study purposes. Cultures of SHED and AD-MSC were used for testing.
