Abstract
The nanohybrid structures consisting of hydroxyapatite (HA) and sodium maleate-vinyl acetate copolymer (MP) deposited by Matrix Assisted Pulsed Laser Evaporation (MAPLE) technique on Ti surfaces were investigated for specific biological qualities required in bone implantology. The data from in vitro studies demonstrated that human primary osteoblasts (OBs) firmly adhered to Ti coated with HA-MP as indicated by cytoskeleton and vinculin dynamics. OBs spread onto biomaterial surface and formed groups of cells which during their biosynthetic activity expressed OB phenotype specific markers (collagen and non-collagenous proteins) and underwent controlled proliferation.
