Abstract
Herbivory insects can discriminate the quality of a host plant for food or oviposition, by detecting the volatile organic compounds (VOC's) released by the plant, however, damaged plants may release a different VOC's profile modifying the insects' response. We tested if the VOC's profile from damaged plants affected the response of Copitarsia decolora as these moths oviposit preferably around undamaged host plants. We assessed the response in wind tunnel conditions of C. decolora mated females to volatiles collected by dynamic headspace from 30-40 d old cabbage undamaged plants and mechanical and larval damaged plants. Headspace volatile compounds from undamaged cabbage plants were more attractive to mated females than those from larval and mechanical damaged cabbage plants. Moths stimulated with headspace volatiles from undamaged plants performed more complete flight and ovipositor displays than those moths stimulated with headspace volatiles from damaged cabbage plants. A mixture of synthetic compounds identified from undamaged cabbages elicited similar antennal and wind tunnel responses in mated females as headspace volatiles from undamaged cabbage plants. C. decolora females may discriminate between damaged and undamaged host plants by detecting their VOC's profiles as a strategy to avoid unsuitable plants for their offspring increasing their fitness.

Abstract
IMPACT STATEMENT Biomaterials can play a dual role in bone regeneration: they enable local sustained delivery of growth factors, such as bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), while they provide structural support as scaffold. By better imitating the properties of native bone tissue, scaffolds may be both osteoconductive and osteoinductive. The latter can be achieved by modifying the electrical charge of the surface. The present work uses tunable oligo[(polyethylene glycol) fumarate] hydrogel and demonstrates that negative charge enhances BMP-2-induced bone formation compared with neutral or positive charge. Altogether, this indicates that tissue-specific surface charge modifications of biomaterials hold great promise in the field of tissue regeneration.

Surface Modifications of the PMMA Optic of a Keratoprosthesis to Improve Biointegration. Cornea 2018; 36 Suppl 1:S15-S25.

Abstract
Biointegration of a keratoprosthesis (KPro) is critical for the mitigation of various long-term postoperative complications. Biointegration of a KPro occurs between the haptic skirt (corneal graft) and the central optic [poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)]. Various studies have highlighted common problems associated with poor bonding and biointegration between these 2 incompatible biomaterials. Resolution of these issues could be achieved by surface modification of the inert material (PMMA). A calcium phosphate (CaP) coating deposited on dopamine-activated PMMA sheets by simulated body fluid incubation (d-CaP coating) was shown to improve adhesion to collagen type I (main component of corneal stroma) compared with untreated PMMA and PMMA with other surface modifications. However, the d-CaP coating could easily undergo delamination, thereby reducing its potential for modification of KPro optical cylinders. In addition, the coating did not resemble the Ca and P composition of hydroxyapatite (HAp). A novel dip-coating method that involves the creation of cavities to trap and immobilize HAp nanoparticles on the PMMA surface was introduced to address the problems associated with the d-CaP coating. The newly obtained coating offered high hydrophilicity, resistance to delamination, and preservation of the Ca and P composition of HAp. These advantages resulted in improved adhesion strength by more than 1 order of magnitude compared with untreated PMMA. With respect to biointegration, human corneal stromal fibroblasts were able to adhere strongly and proliferate on HAp-coated PMMA. Furthermore, the new coating technique could be extended to immobilization of HAp nanoparticles on 3-mm-diameter PMMA cylinders, bringing it closer to clinical application.

Abstract
Electrically polarized biomaterials and their interactions with the surrounding biological environment is important for understanding the host response, growth and inhibition of biological species as well as the long-term fate and performance of the implants. Polarized materials possess electrical charges at the surface due to polar or electret properties. As these surfaces are at the frontier of biological reactions understanding biological interactions at the interface with polarized biomaterials requires a convergence of understanding multiple disciplines. This article discusses progress that has taken place in the fields of surface and interface science, materials science and biomedical device engineering to obtain a better perspective of such interactions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE In the present study, the early stages of in vitro bone formation in collagenated porcine scaffolds cultured with human periodontal ligament cells were investigated. The comparison between the osteogenic potential of this structure in basal and differentiating culture media was explored to predict the mechanism of its biological behavior as graft in human defect. Results were validated by synchrotron radiation X-Ray phase contrast computed microtomography (micro-CT). As the periodontal disease plays a key role in systemic and oral diseases, it is crucial to find advanced therapeutic clinical interventions to repair periodontal defects. This has been recently explored using cells and tissues developed in vitro that should ideally be immunologically, functionally, structurally and mechanically identical to the native tissue. MATERIAL AND METHODS In vitro cultures of human periodontal ligament cells, easily obtained by scraping of alveolar crestal and horizontal fibers of the periodontal ligament, were seeded on to collagenated porcine blocks constituted by natural cancellous and cortical bone. 3D images were obtained by synchrotron radiation micro-CT and processed with a phase-retrieval algorithm based on the transport of intensity equation. RESULTS Starting from the second week of culture, newly formed mineralized bone was detected in all the scaffolds, both in basal and differentiating media. Bone mineralization was proved to occur preferentially in the trabecular portion and in differentiating media. CONCLUSION The chosen method, supported by phase contrast micro-CT analysis, successfully and quantitatively monitored the early stages of bone formation and the rate of the bioscaffold resorption in basal and differentiating culture media.

Abstract
Spatiotemporal interactions play important roles in tissue development and function, especially in stem cell-seeded bioscaffolds. Cells interact with the surface of bioscaffold polymers and influence material-driven control of cell differentiation. In vitro cultures of different human progenitor cells, that is, endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFCs) from a healthy control and a patient with Kaposi sarcoma (an angioproliferative disease) and human CD133+ muscle-derived stem cells (MSH 133+ cells), were seeded onto polyglycolic acid-polylactic acid scaffolds. Three-dimensional (3D) images were obtained by X-ray phase-contrast microtomography (micro-CT) and processed with the Modified Bronnikov Algorithm. The method enabled high spatial resolution detection of the 3D structural organization of cells on the bioscaffold and evaluation of the way and rate at which cells modified the construct at different time points from seeding. The different cell types displayed significant differences in the proliferation rate. In conclusion, X-ray synchrotron radiation phase-contrast micro-CT analysis proved to be a useful and sensitive tool to investigate the spatiotemporal pattern of progenitor cell organization on a bioscaffold.

Abstract
Regenerative medicine is a multidisciplinary field utilizing the potential of stem cells and the regenerative capability of the body to restore, maintain, or enhance tissue and organ functions. Stem cells are unspecialized cells that can self-renew but also differentiate into several somatic cells when subjected the appropriate environmental cues. The ability to reliably direct stem cell fate would provide tremendous potential for basic research and clinical therapies. Proper tissue function and regeneration rely on the spatial and temporal control of biophysical and biochemical cues, including soluble molecules, cell-cell contacts, cell-extracellular matrix contacts, and physical forces. The mechanisms involved remain poorly understood. This review focuses on the stem cell-extracellular matrix interactions by summarizing the observations of the effects of material variables (such as overall architecture, surface topography, charge, ζ-potential, surface energy, and elastic modulus) on the stem cell fate. It also deals with the mechanisms underlying the effects of these extrinsic, material variables. Insight in the environmental interactions of the stem cells is crucial for the development of new material-based approaches for cell culture experiments and future experimental and clinical regenerative medicine applications.

Abstract
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body and is also the most important component of the extracellular matrix. Collagen has several advantages as a biomaterial such as lack of toxicity, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and easy reabsorption. In this study, we examined bovine osteoblasts cultured on native or anionic collagen scaffolds prepared from bovine pericardium after selective hydrolysis of glutamine and asparagine side chain amides for periods from 24 (BP24) and 48 h (BP48). The cells were cultured in control and mineralization medium at 37 °C in the presence of 5% CO(2). Transmission and scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, and an immunocytochemical marker were used for analysis. Cells with an irregular morphology forming a confluent multilayer were observed on matrices kept in control medium. Most of these cells presented a polygonal or elongated flattened morphology. Several spherical deposits of calcium crystal associated with phosphorus were observed on the native and BP48 matrices. Similar results were observed in samples kept in control medium except with lower calcium/phosphorus ratio. Vesicles actively expelled from the cell membrane were also seen (do this vesicles corresponds to calcium/phosphorus deposits). Osteocalcin was clearly visible on matrices kept in mineralization medium and was more expression on the surface of BP48 matrices. The results showed that anionic collagen is able to support osteoblastic differentiation, regardless of the medium used. Finally, the BP48 matrix promoted better osteoblast differentiation than the native matrix.

Abstract
In recent years, there has been a great interest in the development of biomaterials that could be used in the repair of bone defects. Collagen matrix (CM) has the advantage that it can be modified chemically to improve its mechanical properties. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of three-dimensional membranes of native or anionic (submitted to alkaline treatment for 48 or 96 h) collagen matrix on the consolidation of osteoporosis bone fractures resulting from the gonadal hormone alterations caused by ovariectomy in rats subjected to hormone replacement therapy. The animals received the implants 4 months after ovariectomy and were sacrificed 8 weeks after implantation of the membranes into 4-mm wide bone defects created in the distal third of the femur with a surgical bur. Macroscopic analysis revealed the absence of pathological alterations in the implanted areas, suggesting that the material was biocompatible. Microscopic analysis showed a lower amount of bone ingrowth in the areas receiving the native membrane compared to the bone defects filled with the anionic membranes. In ovariectomized animals receiving anionic membranes, a delay in bone regeneration was observed mainly in animals not subjected to hormone replacement therapy. We conclude that anionic membranes treated with alkaline solution for 48 and 96 h presented better results in terms of bone ingrowth.

Abstract
An appropriate cellular response to implanted surfaces is essential for tissue regeneration and integration. It is well described that implanted materials are immediately coated with proteins from blood and interstitial fluids, and it is through this adsorbed layer that cells sense foreign surfaces. Hence, it is the adsorbed proteins, rather than the surface itself, to which cells initially respond. Diverse studies using a range of materials have demonstrated the pivotal role of extracellular adhesion proteins--fibronectin and vitronectin in particular--in cell adhesion, morphology, and migration. These events underlie the subsequent responses required for tissue repair, with the nature of cell surface interactions contributing to survival, growth, and differentiation. The pattern in which adhesion proteins and other bioactive molecules adsorb thus elicits cellular reactions specific to the underlying physicochemical properties of the material. Accordingly, in vitro studies generally demonstrate favorable cell responses to charged, hydrophilic surfaces, corresponding to superior adsorption and bioactivity of adhesion proteins. This review illustrates the mediation of cell responses to biomaterials by adsorbed proteins, in the context of osteoblasts and selected materials used in orthopedic implants and bone tissue engineering. It is recognized, however, that the periimplant environment in vivo will differ substantially from the cell-biomaterial interface in vitro. Hence, one of the key issues yet to be resolved is that of the interface composition actually encountered by osteoblasts within the sequence of inflammation and bone regeneration.

Abstract
Collagen has been extensively described as a beneficial material in bone tissue engineering due to its biocompatibility, biodegradability, low antigenicity, and high tensile strength. However, collagen scaffolds in their pure form have some drawbacks and improvements in the physical, chemical, and biologic properties of collagen are necessary to overcome those inadequacies. Recently, the selective hydrolysis of carboxyamides of asparagine and glutamine residues of collagen has been employed to increase the number of negative sites and enhance the piezoelectric properties of collagen. Anionic collagen scaffolds were prepared by use of a hydrolysis treatment for either 24 h [bovine pericardium (BP 24)] or 48 h (BP 48). Bovine osteoblasts were cultured on them and on native matrices to understand the cellular interactions responsible for the good osteoconductivity and biocompatibility reported with in vivo tests. Based on the data obtained on cell adhesion, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and extracellular matrix macromolecule production, and cellular proliferation through histological analysis, we may conclude that the materials tested reveal sufficient biocompatibility level for bone repair. Further, the evidence of some connection between ALP activity and the mineralization process should be emphasized. BP 48 presented the most promising results stimulating in vitro mineralization, ALP production, and possible osteoblast differentiation.

Abstract
Advances in the field of bone tissue engineering have encouraged physicians to introduce these techniques into clinical practice. Bone tissue engineering is the construction, repair or replacement of damaged or missing bone in humans or animals. Engineering of bone can take place within the animal body or extracorporal in a bioreactor for later grafting into the body. Appropriate cell types and non-living substrata are minimal requirements for an extracorporal tissue engineering approach. This review discusses the biological and biophysical background of in vitro bone tissue engineering. Biochemical and biophysical stimuli of cell growth and differentiation are regarded as potent tools to improve bone formation in vitro. The paper focuses on basic principles in extracorporal engineering of bone-like tissues, intended to be implanted in animal experiments and clinical studies. Particular attention is given in this part to the contributions of cell and material science to the development of bone-like tissues. Several approaches are at the level of clinical applicability and it can be expected that widespread use of engineered bone constructs will change the surgeon's work in the near future.

Hydrophilic groups, i.e. hydroxyl (-OH), carboxyl (-COOH) or amide (-CONH(2)) were introduced onto the poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) membrane surfaces via the photo-induced grafting copolymerization of the corresponding monomers, i.e. hydroxyethyl methacrylate, methacrylic acid or acrylamide, respectively. Chondrocyte culture was used to study the correlation between the cell behaviors and the hydrophilic functional groups. The results showed that the cytocompatibility of the PLLA membranes with hydroxyl or amide groups on the surface was greatly improved compared to that of the original PLLA membrane. However, the PLLA membrane with carboxyl groups on the surface had even worse cytocompatibility though possessed a similar hydrophilicity.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the behavior of fetal rat osteoblasts cultured up to 23 days on a bioactive apatite-wollastonite glass-ceramic (AW) and on the same material on which a carbonated apatite layer was formed by a biomimetic process (AWa). The specific activity of alkaline phosphatase activity was about 30% increased on AWa compared to AW disks at the last day of culture. Scanning electron microscopic (SEM) observations of the material surfaces after scrapping off the cell layers revealed that mineralized bone nodules remained attached to both surfaces but in larger numbers on AWa. The AWa/bone interfaces were also analyzed after fracturing the disks and by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). All these results indicated the importance of the surface composition in supporting differentiation of osteogenic cells and the subsequent apposition of bone matrix. Furthermore, prefabrication of a biological apatite layer by a biomimetic method could improve our knowledge of biomineralization processes and could find application as bone-repairing material.

Abstract
Surface charges of electrically polarized hydroxyapatite (HAp) ceramics were demonstrated to enhance osteoconductivity in the wide gap of the canine bone whereas the bone formation processes varied according to the charge polarity. Cell reactions in the vicinity of the charged surfaces of HAp ceramics were not phagocytic absorption but rather bone formation by stimulated osteoblasts surrounding newly formed bone 7 days after implantation. The bone formation in direct contact with negatively charged ceramic surfaces suggests that the negative charges enhanced the osteobonding ability of the HAp ceramics. In the vicinity of the positively charged HAp surface, the formation of bones derived from osteoid tissues entirely occupied the 0.2-0.3-mm gaps between the HAp and the bone at 7 days. Surface charges induced by electrical polarization significantly cooperated with the innate bioactivity of HAp and reconstructed the wide bone defects more promptly than did the nonpolarized HAp ceramic surface.

Abstract
Precise control of the architecture of multiple cells in culture and in vivo via precise engineering of the material surface properties is described as cell patterning. Substrate patterning by control of the surface physicochemical and topographic features enables selective localization and phenotypic and genotypic control of living cells. In culture, control over spatial and temporal dynamics of cells and heterotypic interactions draws inspiration from in vivo embryogenesis and haptotaxis. Patterned arrays of single or multiple cell types in culture serve as model systems for exploration of cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. More recently, the patterned arrays and assemblies of tissues have found practical applications in the fields of Biosensors and cell-based assays for Drug Discovery. Although the field of cell patterning has its origins early in this century, an improved understanding of cell-substrate interactions and the use of microfabrication techniques borrowed from the microelectronics industry have enabled significant recent progress. This review presents the important early discoveries and emphasizes results of recent state-of-the-art cell patterning methods. The review concludes by illustrating the growing impact of cell patterning in the areas of bioelectronic devices and cell-based assays for drug discovery.

Abstract
The basic approach to the treatment of bone defects involves the use of scaffolds to favor tissue growth. Although several bioscaffolds have been proposed for this purpose, the search for new and enhanced materials continues in an attempt to address the drawbacks of the present ones. Modifying current materials can be a fast and cheap way to develop new ones. Among them, type I collagen allows its structure to be modified using relatively simple techniques. By means of an alkaline treatment, anionic collagen with enhanced piezoelectric properties can be obtained through hydrolysis of carboxyamides groups of asparagine and glutamine residues from collagen in carboxylic. The process applied to a raw source of collagen, bovine pericardium, provided a sponge-like structure, with heterogeneous pore size, and, moreover, the complete removal of interstitial cells. For the evaluation of the biocompatibility of such matrices, they were implanted in surgically created bone defects in rat tibias. Empty defects served as controls. This experimental model allowed a preliminary evaluation of the osteoconductiveness of the matrices. The histological results presented a low inflammatory response and bone formation within a short period of time, similar to that of controls. The low cost of production associated to the biocompatibility and osteoconductivity performance make the anionic collagen matrices promising alternatives for bone defects treatment.

Abstract
Negative surface charges of electrically polarized hydroxyapatite ceramics have been proven to enhance osteobonding in canine bone tissues. Even in a wide gap of 0.2 mm between hydroxyapatite and bone, the negatively charged hydroxyapatite conducted formation of unidirectionally oriented bone layer into direct contact with the hydroxyapatite surface 7 days after implantation. By day 14, the gap was filled with maturing bones linked to each other while conventional hydroxyapatite required at least 28 days for direct bone-to-bone contact. The electrostatic force was deduced to have affected both the activation of bone formation by myeloid cells and the orientation of the bone domain on negatively charged surfaces.

Abstract
The cytotoxicity of the synthetic bone substitute composed of tricalcium phosphate and glutaraldehyde crosslinked gelatin (GTG) were evaluated by osteoblast cell culture. In a previous study, the GTG composites were soaked in distilled water for 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28, and 42 days, and then the solutions (or extracts) were cocultured with osteoblasts to evaluate the cytotoxicity of GTG composites by alive cell counting. In this study, the extracts were cocultured with the osteoblasts; thereafter, the concentration of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta1) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in the medium was analyzed to strictly reflect the biological effects of GTG composites on the growth of osteoblasts. In order to investigate the osteoconductive potential of the GTG composites on new bone formation in a relative short term, a model of neonatal rat calvarial organ culture was designed prior to animal experiments. Three experimental materials of 4, 8, and 12% GTG composites were evaluated by fetal rat calvarial organ culture for their ability for bone regeneration. Deproteinized bovine and porcine cancellous bone matrixes were used as the controlled materials. All the organ culture units were maintained in cultured medium for 5 weeks. Following the culture period, the morphology of tissue was observed under an optical microscope, and the quantitative evaluation of the new generation bone was determined by using a semiautomatic histomorphometeric method. Except in the initial 4 days, the concentration of TGF-beta1 of 4% and 8% GTG composites was higher than that of the blank group for all the other experimental time periods. The PGE2 concentration for 4% and 8% GTG composites was lower than that of the blank group. It revealed that the 4% and 8% GTG composites would not lead to inflammation and would promote osteoblast growth. The morphology and activity of the osteoblasts were not transformed or changed by the 2 GTG composites. For the 12% GTG composite, the performance of the in vitro condition was inferior to the blank group and the other 2 GTG composites. Although the concentration of TGF-beta1 and PGE2 was gradually back to normal after 14 days, the morphology of the osteoblasts was abnormal with features such as contracted cytoplast structures. The osteoblast was damaged perhaps in the initial stage. We suggested that the 4% and 8% GTG composites should be soaked in distilled water at least for 4 days before medical applications. The 12% GTG composite and the composites with a concentration of glutaraldehyde solution higher than 12% were not recommended as a medical prostheses in any condition. The fetal rat calvaria culture also showed the same results with the analysis of TGF-beta1 and PGE2. From the study, we could predict the results of animal experiments in the future.

Abstract
A number of studies have demonstrated the pivotal role of collagen in modulating cell growth and differentiation. In bone, where the extracellular matrix is composed of approximately 85% type I collagen, cellular interaction with matrix components has been shown to be important in the regulation of the osteoblast phenotype. Preservation or enhancement of normal osteoblast function and appositional bone formation after implant placement represents a strategy that can be useful for the purpose of improving osseointegration. In order to further improve biocompatibility, we combined two known favorable compounds, namely the titanium alloy, Ti6A14V, with type I collagen. We assessed the in vitro behavior of primary osteoblasts grown on both fibrillar collagen-coated and tropocollagen-coated Ti6A14V in comparison with uncoated titanium alloy, using an improved adsorption procedure. As parameters of biocompatibility, a variety of processes, including cell attachment, spreading, cytoskeletal organization, focal contact formation, proliferation and expression of a differentiated phenotype, were investigated. Our results demonstrated for the first time that in comparison to uncoated titanium alloy, collagen-coated alloy enhanced spreading and resulted in a more rapid formation of focal adhesions and their associated stress fibers. Growing on collagen-coated Ti6A14V, osteoblasts had a higher proliferative capacity and the intracellular expression of osteopontin was upregulated compared to uncoated titanium alloy. Type I collagen-coated titanium alloy exhibits favorable effects on the initial adhesion and growth activities of osteoblasts, which is encouraging for its potential use as bone graft material. Moreover, collagen type I may serve as an excellent biocompatible carrier for osteotropic factors such as cell adhesion molecules (e.g. fibronectin) or bone-specific growth factors.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to determine the effect of porous bioactive glass (45S5) substrate characteristics on the expression and maintenance of the osteoblastic phenotype. We cultured ROS 17/2. 8 cells on substrates with different pore size and porosity for periods up to 14 days and analyzed the characteristics of the cells and extracellular matrix. Results of the study show that the glass substrates supported the proliferation and growth of osteoblast-like cells. Although the morphologies of the cells differed on the various substrates, their shape and the extent of membrane ruffling suggested that they maintained high levels of metabolic activity. Cells on all substrates expressed high levels of alkaline phosphatase activity and produced extracellular matrices that mineralized to form nonstoichiometric, carbonated, calcium-deficient apatites. An important finding was that at a given porosity of 44%, the pore size neither directed nor modulated the in vitro expression of the osteoblastic phenotype. In contrast, porosity did affect cellular function. We noted that at an average pore size of 92 microm, as the porosity increased from 35 to 59%, osteoblast activity was reduced. As designed in this experiment, an increase in the porosity led to a corresponding increase in total surface area of the specimens. With increasing porosity and surface area, glass reactions in the media may persist for longer durations at higher intensities, thereby affecting local media composition. As such, we suggest that extensive conditioning treatments before cell seeding can reduce this effect. Our results also revealed that the expression of the osteoblastic phenotype is enhanced by the ongoing glass dissolution. The reaction pathway at the origin of this effect still needs to be elucidated. Taken together, the findings support the overall hypothesis that in vitro cell activity can be controlled by a careful selection of substrate properties.

Abstract
The initial contact of osteoblasts with implant surfaces is an important event for osseointegration of implants. Osseointegration of Ti6Al4V may be improved by precoating of its surface with collagen type I. In this study, the adhesion of rat calvarial osteoblasts to uncoated and collagen type I-coated titanium alloy was investigated over a period of 24 h. Collagen type I-coating accelerates initial adhesion of osteoblasts in the presence of fetal calf serum. One hour after plating, no differences in the percentage of adherent cells between the surfaces investigated were found. Adhesion of osteoblasts to uncoated surfaces was reduced by the GRGDSP peptide by about 70%, whereas adhesion to collagen type I-coated surfaces remained unaffected by treatment of the cells with the peptide. Cell adhesion to coated materials was reduced by about 80% by anti-integrin beta1 antibody. The integrin beta1 antibody did not influence the adhesion to uncoated titanium alloy. The results suggest that osteoblasts adhere to collagen type I-coated materials via integrin beta1 but not by interacting with RGD peptides, whereas adhesion to uncoated titanium alloy is mediated by RGD sequences but not via integrin beta1. Fibronectin does not seem to be involved in the adhesion of osteoblasts to either coated or uncoated titanium alloy.

Abstract
We analyzed the mechanisms of the efficient bone formation on the osteoconductive surface of apatite- and wollastonite-containing glass-ceramic (AW) by using an in vitro system. AW releases Ca ions and bonds to bone via a submicron-thick hydroxycarbonate apatite (HCA) layer. AW disks were conditioned with simulated body fluid (SBF) to grow HCA layers, and the amount of released Ca ion was regulated by modulating the conditioning time from 24 to 240 h. Surface-transformed AW disks increased alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity in osteoblastic ROS17/2.8 cells by 1.5- to threefold over unconditioned disks. AW disks conditioned for 24 h [AW(24)], which had a homogeneous, submicron-thick apatite layer and increased extracellular ionized Ca concentration ([Ca(2+)](e)) in the culture medium to the greatest extent, enhanced the AP activity the most. High [Ca(2+)](e) promoted osteogenic differentiation in ROS17/2.8 cells: It increased AP activity in a dose-dependent manner by up to 1.6-fold, and up-regulated the expression of AP, osteocalcin (OC), and transforming growth factor-beta1 mRNAs in dose- and time-dependent manners. AW(24) enhanced AP activity in ROS17/2.8 cells as much as AW disks conditioned with SBF containing serum to exhibit in vivo surface-structure changes. AW(24) increased AP activity in ROS17/2.8 cells by 1.6-fold and enhanced the expression of AP and OC mRNAs significantly, compared with sintered hydroxyapatite (HA). After implantation of AW and HA in the distal metaphyses of rabbit femurs, thin, newly formed bone lined with cuboidal, osteoblast-like cells was characteristically observed adjacent to the AW surface within 8 days. These results provide evidence for the hypothesis that AW stimulates bone formation on its surface by increasing [Ca(2+)](e) to promote the HCA layer formation and the differentiation of osteogenic cells.

Abstract
Understanding the cellular basis of osteoblastic cell-biomaterial interaction is crucial to the analysis of the mechanism of osseointegration, a requirement of long-term orthopedic implant stability. Clinically, the amount of bone ingrowth is variable, and cellular parameters that influence ingrowth have yet to be clearly determined. In this study, two clinically relevant orthopedic alloys, titanium Ti6A14V (Ti) and cobalt-chrome-molybdenum (CC), were used for a comparative analysis of primary human osteoblastic cell adhesion and spreading, where cell adhesion represents the initial interaction between cellular elements and the biomaterial surface. The kinetic profile of adhesion revealed enhanced cell attachment upon rough Ti surfaces relative to rough CC. Using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), we observed that, during the first 12 h of contact with the substratum, osteoblastic cells were relatively less spread on rough Ti, whereas cells appeared elongated with multiple cellular extensions on rough CC. Focal adhesion contacts, as indicated by vinculin immunostaining, were distributed throughout the cells adhering to Ti, but were relatively sparse and localized to cellular processes on CC. Furthermore, three-dimensional CLSM reconstruction analysis indicated the presence of vinculin at all membrane-to-surface contact points on both Ti and CC. On Ti, these contact points closely followed the surface contour, whereas, on CC, they were restricted to relative topographic peaks only. Actin cytoskeletal reorganization was prominent in cells cultured on Ti, with stress fibers arranged throughout the cell body, whereas, on CC, actin filaments were sparse and localized primarily to cellular extensions. Because cell attachment mechanisms are likely to influence signal transduction and regulation of gene expression, these early differential responses of osteoblastic cells on Ti and CC may have functional implications on subsequent extracellular matrix mineralization and bone ingrowth at the cell-biomaterial interface.

Abstract
The surface topography of a substratum has been shown to influence the growth and morphology of cells in culture. In this study, human osteoblast-like cells (Saos-2) were cultured on two types of xenogenic biomaterials obtained from bovine bone. Both biomaterials were similar in architectural organization and surface topography, but they differed in matrix components. The first one was characterized by preservation of the mineralized collagen matrix, and the second by complete deproteinization which only preserved the mineral phase. Cells cultured at the surface of both biomaterials were observed using scanning electron microscopy. The beta 1-integrin subunit, known to bind cell and collagen, is the major integrin of the osteoblast. It was localized using immunogold in transmission electron microscopy. At the surface of the collagen-containing matrix, cells exhibited an elongated shape and oriented axis parallel to the underlying collagen bundles. The beta 1-integrin subunit was localized at the outer surface of cells, in close association with collagen and at the contact points between cells and biomaterials. In contrast, at the surface of the single mineral matrix, cells were round shaped with random disposition. Gold particles were found around the cells with no specific relation to the biomaterial. These results strongly suggest that the chemical nature of the surface of a bone biomaterial directly influences adhesion process, shape, and spatial organization of cultured osteoblastic cells.

Abstract
We examined the behavior of fetal rat chondrocytes cultured on a bioactive glass-ceramic containing apatite and wollastonite (A.W.G.C.). Biomaterial surface topography and profiles were evaluated by bidimensional profilometry and revealed a rough surface for the glass-ceramic compared to the plastic coverslips used as controls. Chondrocyte attachment was evaluated by measuring the number of attached cells after one day of culture and by morphological observations. Chondrocytes attached in great numbers to the material surface by means of focal contacts containing vinculin and beta1-integrin. Fluorescent labeling of actin and vimentin revealed a poor spreading of chondrocytes on the bioactive glass-ceramic compared to the plastic coverslips, where the cells appeared to adhere intimately to the surface and exhibited polygonal arrays of stress fibers. During the following days of culture, chondrocytes proliferated, colonized the surface of the material, and, finally, on day 10, formed nodular structures composed of round cells separated by a dense extracellular matrix. Furthermore, these clusters of round cells were positive for type II collagen and chondroitin sulfate, both hard markers of the chondrocyte phenotype. In addition, protein synthesis, alkaline phosphatase activity, and proteoglycan production were found to increase gradually during the culture period with a pattern similar to that observed on control cultures. These results demonstrate that the bioactive glass-ceramic tested in this study appears to be a suitable substrate for in vitro chondrocyte attachment, differentiation, and matrix production.

Abstract
We investigated the effect of electrically charged surface copolymers on endothelialization of four types of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) copolymer surface films with different electrical characteristics. PVDF films without a surface charge, with a remanent surface (5 and 7 microC) and with piezoelectric characteristics were studied through the secretion by an endothelial cell (EC) line culture, under static and oscillating flow conditions of prostacyclin (PGI2) and thromboxane (TXA2), two metabolites which have directly opposing actions on platelet function. The surface electrical properties of PVDF are suitable for promoting cell adhesion. Secretion of thrombomodulatory mediators varied, depending on the surface electrical charge and on the molecular structure of the PVDF substrate. Under static conditions the ECs respond to the substrates by a similar increase of PGI2. Under oscillating flow conditions, the ratio of PGI2 to TXA2 is higher with the piezoelectric PVDF film. The piezoelectricity generated from shear stress along the entire length of the fibres may be appropriate in vivo to keep the [PGI2]/[TXA2] ratio at a level which could counteract the build-up of surface deposits which could be at the origin of thrombosis.

Abstract
Cells are sensitive to topological, chemical, and electrical properties of substrates on which they are grown. However, most studies of cell-surface interactions have neglected electrical effects or confounded them with other substrate properties. The use of nanofabrication technology has made it possible to fabricate optically transparent surfaces with controlled chemistry and topology, and with active, controllable surface charge density in domains as small as 1-4 microns. Human monocytes incubated on polystyrene with 3.3 microns-wide strip domains, alternately charged so as to maintain overall charge neutrality, show significant charge density and time-dependent increases (greater than twofold) in cell area and cell perimeter after challenge with a phagocytic trigger (human IgG opsonized zymosan particles). Additional utlrastructural studies on silicon dioxide substrates show charge-density-dependent qualitative morphological differences. These studies clearly demonstrate that human monocytes respond in vitro to local surface-charge heterogeneity in the absence of substrate topology and compositional variation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this review is to examine the usefulness of cell culture methods to model the mechanisms of bone formation on the surfaces of candidate implant materials. METHODS The central objective is to show that in vitro methods are uniquely valuable in providing an understanding of how new bone is formed on solid surfaces. It should be emphasized, at the outset, that the use of cell culture studies as cytotoxicity assays will not be addressed, nor is it implied that cell cultures can model all the complexities of the in vivo environment. Nevertheless, by comparison with in vivo data, which are by nature retrospective, it is shown that primary differentiating osteogenic cell cultures, derived from bone marrow, illustrate a sequence of extracellular matrix elaboration events that characterize the establishment of the interface between newly formed bone and solid surfaces. These solid surfaces either may be implant materials, or indeed previously formed bone matrix, which has been resorbed during normal bone remodeling events. In each case the first biologically derived matrix at these sites is a morphologically distinct collagen fibre-free extracellular matrix, which, in bone histology has been referred to for > 100 years as a cement line. RESULTS The sequence starts with secretion and adsorption to the substratum of organic components, of which the major proteins are osteopontin and bone sialoprotein. Mineralization of this matrix occurs by the seeding of nanocrystalline calcium phosphate, which precedes the appearance of morphologically identifiable collagen fibres. This is clearly contrary to the dogma that collagen is necessary for mineralization of bone, but is in agreement with specific cases of other, particularly dental, calcified connective tissues. Although collagen is synthesized by the differentiating osteogenic cells that elaborate the cement line interface, it is not adsorbed to the underlying solid surface. Following the elaboration of the cement line matrix, collagen fibre assembly occurs and is then mineralized to produce morphologically identifiable bone matrix. CONCLUSION Key elements of this sequence of events can be seen at the interface of implants retrieved from in vivo experiments, which indicates that these in vitro methods not only mimic known in vivo phenomena, but also provide a mechanistic understanding of bone elaboration at implant surfaces. However, distinction is drawn between the events of new bone formation at implant surfaces and other bone/implant morphologies, which are unrelated to de novo bone formation at the implant surface. Finally, this new information emerging from bone marrow cell culture studies demands a re-examination of the concepts of bone-bonding and nonbonding implant materials.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although currently available implants can be used to achieve osseointegration under well-defined conditions, a greater understanding of cell behaviour is required to improve the designs and embark on actual tissue engineering. MATERIALS AND METHODS We employed micromachined substrata to investigate some of the main behavioural responses of osteoblasts from rat fetal calvaria to surface topography. In particular, confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), differential interference contrast microscopy, time-lapse cinemicrography, immunofluorescence, digital radiography and image analysis were used to investigate cell adhesion, cell shape and cytoskeleton distribution, tissue organization, cell differentiation, and microenvironment. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS A grooved surface permitted the attachment of more cells than a smooth one. Cell shape and cytoskeleton were strikingly influenced as early as 20 min after cell attachment, when the cytoskeleton begins to align with the topography. Some grooved surfaces appeared to promote osteogenesis in vitro as assessed by the production of bone-like nodules. Moreover, these nodules align with the topography in vitro, and preliminary results indicate that bone-like tissue also aligns with grooves when such surfaces are implanted in vivo.

Abstract
Early evaluation of intraosseous implant success and failure is critical, but, until now, there have been no reliable systems of measurement. The present study assessed whether the use of 99mtechnetium methylene-[32P]diphosphonate (99mTcMD32P), a marker for both bone formation and mineralization, can indicate if an implant is bone-bonding or non-bonding. Moreover, this study examined how bone-bonding (titanium and hydroxyapatite) and non-bonding (stainless steel) implants affected the normal healing of bone after marrow ablation, as measured by uptake of 99mTc and 32P. Titanium, hydroxyapatite and stainless steel implants were placed in the right tibiae of Sabra strain rats following ablation of the marrow, and 99mTcMD32P was injected 18 h before harvest. AT 3, 6, 14, 21 and 42 d (and in some experiments, on days 28 and 35) post-injury, the treated and contralateral tibiae were removed and cleaned of soft tissue. The uptake of 99mTc and 32P was measured in the whole bone, as well as in its organic and inorganic phases. Effects of the implants were assessed by comparing the treated to the untreated tibia in each rat. The distribution of 99mTc and 32P varied with each implant. After the insertion of titanium, increased 99mTc uptake was seen in whole bone and in the inorganic and organic phases at days 6-14. 32P uptake in whole bone and in the inorganic phase increased only at day 6, and 32P uptake was decreased in the organic phase at that time. In tibiae implanted with hydroxyapatite, 99mTc and 32P uptake was seen in the whole bone at days 6 and 14. While 99mTc uptake was increased in both the organic and inorganic phases, 32P uptake into the organic phase was decreased at both day 6 and day 14. In tibiae implanted with stainless steel, effects were observed only on day 6. The increased 99mTc uptake in whole bone reflected increases in both the organic and mineral phases. Increased 32P uptake was observed in whole bone as well, due to an increase in the 32P uptake in the mineral phase only; incorporation of 32P in the organic phase was comparable to that found in the contralateral limb. The results of this study indicate that implants alter bone healing, as indicated by the uptake of 99mTc and 32P in the different bone compartments. Moreover, decreased 32P uptake by the organic phase in the presence of bone-bonding implants suggests that cleavage of 99mTcMD32P into its technetium and methylene diphosphonate moieties was inhibited, perhaps as a function of the onset of calcification in the newly synthesized osteoid. The effect of the implants on bone healing was observed on days 6-14, when active bone formation and mineralization were occurring, supporting the hypothesis that these materials events associated with initial calcification. Uptake of 99mTc varies as a function of time, and uptake of 32P varies with time and distribution in the mineral or organic phase of bone, suggesting that these parameters may be useful as indicators of bone-bonding.

Abstract
The cytotoxicity of a series of poly(anhydride-co-imides) with osteoblast-like cells (MC3T3-E1) was evaluated. The imide component of the copolymers was based on trimellitylimidoglycine (TMA-gly), and the anhydride component was based on either sebacic acid (SA) or 1,6-bis(carboxyphenoxy)hexane (CPH). Cell adhesion and proliferation on surfaces of the polymer discs were observed by environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM). During the first 24 h of attachment, cells showed normal morphology when cultured on the various copolymers of CPH. Concurrently, the effects of polymer breakdown products on osteoblast-like cells were evaluated by studying their proliferation (cell numbers), viability (dye exclusion), and morphology (light microscopy). Cell cultures in the presence of these breakdown products resulted in normal morphologies and reached confluency after 7 days. This initial in vitro evaluation with osteoblast-like cells suggests that the poly(anhydride-co-imides) may be viable carriers for osteoblasts.

Abstract
The biosynthetic and migratory response of bone cells to changes in both surface composition and morphology of polystyrene (PS) substrates was examined. A system was devised wherein micromachined silicon wafers were used as templates to solvent-cast PS replicas [using 0, 1, or 2 wt % styrene (S) monomer additions] with either 0.5- or 5.0- microns-deep surface grooves. Smooth replicas (0% S) served as the control surfaces. The chemical and morphologic characteristics of the nine unique model biomaterial surfaces (MBSs) produced using this system were documented and were found to be distinct. For the biosynthetic studies, bone cells isolated from neonatal rat calvaria were plated onto the MBSs and labeled at postconfluence with [14C]proline for 24 h. Total DNA per surface, total newly synthesized collagenous (CP), and noncollagenous protein (NCP) (cell associated and secreted) were determined. Cell-associated CP was found to increase significantly for the bone cells cultured on the substrates with 0.5-micron grooves and 2% S (P < .05). Cell-associated NCP was found to be elevated for all 2% S substrates and for the 0.5-micron grooves substrates with 1% S. For the migration studies, bone cells were plated first onto 5-mm nitrocellulose disks that were attached to standard Petri dishes using a plasma clot. At confluence, the disks were removed aseptically and placed on the replicas. The cellular area occupied as a result of the outward migration of the bone cells was measured after 4 days of culture using an image analysis system. An average velocity for the leading edge of bone cell populations on each of the nine MBSs was calculated: Cells on surfaces with either 1% S or 5.0-microns grooves displayed significantly higher velocities than did the control cultures. A significant interaction effect between chemistry and morphology was observed. The biosynthetic and migratory responses of in vitro cultures of bone cells were not predictable from the observations of the cellular responses to the individual features, but appeared to depend on cellular responses to more than one substrate factor.

Abstract
The osteogenic potential of different surface charges was studied by implanting uncharged, negatively changed and positively charged Sephadex beads subperiosteally on the buccal aspect of the mandible. The implant sites were examined 1, 2, and 4 weeks later. New bone formation was observed around the positively charged beads at 2 weeks. An amorphous collagen-free layer seen around the beads consisted of anionic substances and contained needle-like crystals. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-positive, multinucleated giant cells, which had typical fine structural characteristics of osteoclast-like ruffled borders and a clear zone, were observed on the surface of positively charged beads, with osteoblastic cells juxtaposed to them. Bone formation was still going on at 4 weeks in this group. Around the uncharged or negatively charged beads, new bone formation and osteoclast-like cells were not observed at any time. The findings suggest that the surface charge of implant materials has a definite influence on the differentiation of osteoclastic cells and subsequent occurrence of osteoblastic cells leading to formation of bone.

Abstract
The effect on chondrocyte metabolism of culture surfaces sputter-coated with various materials used for orthopaedic implants was studied and correlated with the stage of cartilage cell maturation. Confluent, fourth-passage chondrocytes from the costochondral resting zone and growth zone of rats were cultured for 6 or 9 days on 24-well plates sputter-coated with ultrathin films of titanium, titanium dioxide, aluminum oxide, zirconium oxide, and calcium phosphate (1.67:1). Corona-discharged tissue culture plastic served as the control. The effect of surface material was examined with regard to cell morphology; cell proliferation (cell number) and DNA synthesis ([3H]thymidine incorporation); RNA synthesis ([3H]uridine incorporation); collagenase-digestible protein, noncollagenase-digestible protein, and percentage of collagen production; and alkaline phosphatase-specific activity, both in the cell layer and in trypsinized chondrocytes. Cell morphology was dependent on surface material; only cells cultured on titanium had an appearance similar to that of cells cultured on plastic. While titanium or titanium dioxide surfaces had no effect on cell number or [3H]thymidine incorporation, aluminum oxide, calcium phosphate, and zirconium oxide surfaces inhibited both parameters. Cells cultured on aluminum oxide, calcium phosphate, zirconium oxide, and titanium dioxide exhibited decreased collagenase-digestible protein, noncollagenase-digestible protein, and percentage of collagen production, but [3H]uridine incorporation was decreased only in those chondrocytes cultured on aluminum oxide, calcium phosphate, or zirconium oxide. Chondrocytes cultured on titanium had greater alkaline phosphatase-specific activity than did cells cultured on plastic, but the incorporation of [3H]uridine and production of collagenase-digestible protein, noncollagenase-digestible protein, and percentage of collagen was comparable. The response of chondrocytes from the growth zone and resting zone to culture surface was comparable, differing primarily in magnitude. Cell maturation-dependent effects were evident when enzyme activity in trypsinized and scraped cells was compared. These results indicate that different surface materials affect chondrocyte metabolism and phenotypic expression in vitro and suggest that implant materials may modulate the phenotypic expression of cells in vivo.

Abstract
In the present study we used an established cell culture model to compare Bioglass 45S5 with four other bioactive glasses. Small substitutions or additions of certain ions like iron, titanium, fluorine or boron modified the basic 45S5 glass network. We used several histological and biochemical parameters to interpret the results found in terms of the used model. Regarding 45S5 as a reference, we found that osteoblasts cultured on iron-doped bioactive glass showed a more flattened morphology, and both lower proliferation rate and osteoblast expression. Osteoblasts cultured on titanium-doped glasses also showed a flattened morphology, but higher proliferation and remarkably higher osteoblast expression. On fluorine- and boron-containing glasses the osteoblasts showed a rather compact morphology, a normal proliferation but only moderate osteoblast expression. With microprobe analysis it was shown that the formation of calcium and phosphorus on titanium-doped glass was relatively lower and the release of sodium slower when compared with 45S5. Osteoblasts cultured on titanium-doped bioactive glasses demonstrated superior histological and biochemical parameters when compared with the other glass types. Further research into the physico-chemical properties and the in vivo behaviour of doped bioactive glasses is recommended.

Abstract
Periosteal derived bovine osteoblast-like cells migrated in culture onto an ionomeric cement. Cell cultures were maintained for 4 weeks and used to study the in vitro behaviour of cells on the ionomeric bone cement (IC). The cells produced bone matrix proteins (osteocalcin, bone sialoprotein II) and were osteoblast-like. The osteoblast-like cells colonized the substrate in monolayers and produced an extracellular matrix as seen by light and scanning electron microscopy. Morphological comparison between cells growing on the ionomeric bone cement and cortical bone revealed no significant difference in phenotypic expression. Staining for aluminium in osteoblasts growing on the IC showed an uptake and storage of aluminium in the cells. Energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis revealed high concentrations of aluminium and silicon in the periosteal tissue. Despite the known toxic effect of aluminium in vivo and in vitro on osteoblasts, no signs of toxicity were apparent on light and scanning electron microscopy analysis.

Abstract
We investigated the behavior of fetal rat osteoblasts cultured on four bone replacing materials: bioactive glass, hydroxylapatite, a titanium alloy, and stainless steel. The cultures were histologically examined for individual cell morphology and osteoblast expression after several periods of time using scanning electron, fluorescence, and normal light microscopy. Other cultures were used for biochemical determinations of alkaline phosphatase activity (APA) and DNA content. Osteoblasts cultured on bioactive glass showed a better osteoblast-like morphology and a higher proliferation rate, leading to confluent cultures with higher cell density and a generally better expression of the osteoblast phenotype in comparison with the other substrates. The confluent bioactive glass cultures also showed significantly higher DNA content and APA as well as the calculated APA/DNA ratio. Based on the evaluation of histological and biochemical parameters we conclude that osteoblasts cultured on bioactive glass show a generally better osteoblast character than on the other materials.

Abstract
Rat bone marrow cells were cultured on plasma-sprayed hydroxyapatite (HA). The cells formed a mineralized extracellular matrix (ECM) that exhibited several characteristics of bone tissue. The interface between this mineralized ECM and the HA was studied at the ultrastructural level with scanning and transmission electron microscopy and x-ray microanalysis. Initially, the deposition of a globular, afibrillar matrix was observed on HA. This was followed by the integration of collagen fibers in this matrix and their subsequent mineralization. At the bone-HA interface two distinctly different interfacial structures were observed. An electron-dense layer with a thickness of 20-60 nm was regularly present, which contained both organic and inorganic material and was rich in glycosaminoglycans. The interfaces differed however, in the presence or absence of an amorphous zone which was free of collagen fibers and had an average thickness of 0.7-0.8 microns. It was frequently seen interposed between the electron-dense layer and the hydroxyapatite. Similar interfacial structures have also been described in the in vivo environment, where they were referred to as lamina limitans-like or cement linelike. From the results of this study, it can be concluded that the described in vitro system is a suitable model to study bone-biomaterial interactions.

Abstract
We examined the behaviour of fetal rat osteoblasts cultured upon bioactive glass and nonreactive glasses, and the supposed stimulatory effects of bioactive glass on osteoblasts. Nonreactive glass cultures showed flattened cells with almost no dorsal ruffles. Bioactive glass cultures showed compact cells with dorsal ruffles and filapodia resulting in the formation of a denser cell layer. For confluent nonreactive glass cultures the osteoblast expression was mainly concentrated in the clustered cells which were formed upon the monolayer, whereas for confluent bioactive glass cultures the osteoblast expression was more generally distributed. The production of type I collagen, osteocalcin and an osteoblast-specific antigen was shown by immunocytochemistry for all cultures, although differences in distribution were observed. The bioactive layer of bioactive glass is responsible for a better osteoblast-like morphology, a higher proliferation rate and generally a better osteoblast expression.

Abstract
Responses of neonatal rat calvarial osteoblasts to a variety of orthopedic implant materials were examined in vitro. Attachment, proliferation, and collagen synthesis of a well-characterized line of osteoblasts with 316L stainless steel, Ti-6Al-4V, Co-Cr-Mo, PMMA, hydroxyapatite, borosilicate glass, and tissue culture polystyrene were studied. Cell adhesion and growth were similar on nonapatitic materials. In contrast, attachment and growth of osteoblasts were significantly lower and slower, respectively, on hydroxyapatite. Collagen synthesis per cell and relative collagen synthesis, however, were comparable on all the materials tested.

Abstract
We investigated the ability of fetal rat bone cells isolated after collagenase digestion to differentiate in vitro and to produce a mineralized matrix on coral granules. Scanning electron microscopy examination of the surface of the seeded coral granules revealed that cells attached, spread, and proliferated on the material surface. Bone nodule formation was studied in this in vitro system by direct examination under an inverted phase contrast microscope. The initial event observed was the appearance of cells with phosphatase alkaline activity arranged in several layers and forming a three-dimensional organization around the coral particles. By Day 7, nodule formation began and a refringent material appeared and extended to the background cells during the following days. By Day 15, some coral granules were embedded in a mineralized matrix. Histologic results demonstrated the formation of a mineralized tissue with the appearance of woven bone.

Abstract
The in vitro migratory morphology of neonate rat calvarial osteoblasts on positively or negatively-charged polymer substrata was observed using scanning (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Proteins adsorbed from the culture medium onto these charged substrata were desorbed using 2% SDS and separated using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). The charge sign of the substrata affected both protein adsorption and osteoblast migratory morphology. Cells flattened and adapted so closely to positively-charged substrata that the ventral cell membrane could not be distinguished at TEM. On negatively-charged substrata the ventral cell membrane was readily visible, with only focal areas of close contact with the substratum. The depth of the ventral extracellular space varied with the surface charge-carrier species on the negative substrata. Two desorbed protein fractions (MW 220 and 30 kDaltons, respectively) were correlated with osteoblast spreading on positive and negatively-charged surfaces respectively. Another protein fraction was uniquely present on PAGE profiles desorbed from negatively-charged substrata. It was concluded that the migratory morphology of osteoblasts was influenced via the intermediary of specifically adsorbed proteins.

Abstract
Osteoblasts from neonate rat calvaria migrated in culture from the endocranial surface of parietal bones onto fragments of bone-bonding 45S5 glass or non-bone-bonding quartz glass. These organ culture units were maintained for up to 4 wk. No significant production of extracellular matrix (ECM) was seen on the quartz glass samples. However, osteoblasts colonized the 45S5 samples in multilayers and produced abundant ECM as seen by light (LM), scanning electron (SEM) and transmission electron (TEM) microscopy. The interface developed on 45S5 glass was designated as either Type I (non-collagen-bonding) or Type II (showing direct interdigitation of collagen with the calcium phosphate-rich glass surface). It was concluded that, since this in vitro method is capable of reproducing some aspects of the known in vivo behaviour of 45S5, such techniques may be developed as a means of batch-testing bioactive biomaterials and investigating bone cell/biomaterial interactions.
