Primary human osteoblasts grow into porous tantalum and maintain an osteoblastic phenotype.

Journal of biomedical materials research. Part A - 1 Mar 2008

Welldon Katie J, Atkins Gerald J, Howie Donald W, Findlay David M

Abstract excerpt

Porous tantalum (Ta) has found application in orthopedics, although the interaction of human osteoblasts (HOB) with this material has not been reported. The aim of this study was to investigate the interaction of primary HOB with porous tantalum, using 5-mm thick discs of porous tantalum. Comparison was made with discs of solid tantalum and tissue culture plastic. Confocal microscopy was used to investigate the...
