Smart Bone Graft Composite for Cancer Therapy Using Magnetic Hyperthermia.

Magnetic hyperthermia (MHT) is a therapy that uses the heat generated by a magnetic material for cancer treatment. Magnetite nanoparticles are the most used materials in MHT. However, magnetite has a high Curie temperature (~580 °C), and its use may generate local superheating.

Effect of bioactive Biosilicate /F18 glass scaffolds on osteogenic differentiation of human adipose stem cells.

This study evaluated the gene expression profile of the human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) grown on the Biosilicate /F18 glass (BioS-2P/F18) scaffolds. hASCs were cultured using the osteogenic medium (control), the scaffolds, and their ionic extract. We observed that ALP activity was higher in hASCs grown on the BioS-2P/F18 scaffolds than in hASCs cultured with the ionic extract or the osteogenic medium on day 14.
