Genes Differentially Expressed in Titanium Implant Healing
1 Jun 2006
Abstract excerpt
Bone generation occurs around titanium implants; however, its underlying mechanisms are unknown. We hypothesized that molecular determinants distinct from those undertaking normal bone healing regulate osseointegration. Using differential display-polymerase chain-reaction in the male rat model, we isolated 3 genes that are differentially expressed in bone healing with implants, but not in osteotomy healing. A...
