Abstract excerpt
The objective of this study was to address the hypothesis that changes in extracellular pH alter collagen gene expression, collagen synthesis, and alkaline phosphatase activity in bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs). Potential effects of pH on cell function are of particular importance for tissue engineering because considerable effort is being placed on engineering biodegradable polymers that may generate a local...
