Role of geometrical cues in bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell survival, growth and osteogenic differentiation (2017)
Journal Article
Gupta, D., Grant, D. M., Hossain, K. M. Z., Ahmed, I., & Sottile, V. (2018). Role of geometrical cues in bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell survival, growth and osteogenic differentiation. Journal of Biomaterials Applications, 32(7), https://doi.org/10.1177/0885328217745699

Mesenchymal stem cells play a vital role in bone formation process by differentiating into osteoblasts, in a tissue that offers not a flat but a discontinuous three-dimensional (3D) topography in vivo. In order to understand how geometry may be affec... Read More about Role of geometrical cues in bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell survival, growth and osteogenic differentiation.

Structural and physico-chemical analysis of calcium/ strontium substituted, near-invert phosphate based glasses for biomedical applications (2017)
Journal Article
Patel, U., Moss, R., Hossain, K., Kennedy, A., Barney, E., Ahmed, I., & Hannon, A. (2017). Structural and physico-chemical analysis of calcium/ strontium substituted, near-invert phosphate based glasses for biomedical applications. Acta Biomaterialia, 60, 109-127. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actbio.2017.07.002

Neutron diffraction, 23Na and 31P NMR and FTIR spectroscopy have been used to investigate the structural effects of substituting CaO with SrO in a 40P2O5·(16 x)CaO·20Na2O·24MgO·xSrO glass, where x is 0, 4, 8, 12 and 16 mol%. The 31P solid-state NMR r... Read More about Structural and physico-chemical analysis of calcium/ strontium substituted, near-invert phosphate based glasses for biomedical applications.
