Osteoinductive potential of graphene and graphene oxide for bone tissue engineering: a comparative study.

Background: Bone defects, especially critical-size bone defects, and their repair pose a treatment challenge. Osteoinductive scaffolds have gained importance given their potential in bone tissue engineering applications.

Methods: Polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffolds are used for their morphological, physical, cell-compatible and osteoinductive properties.
