Osteogenic potential of poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(dimethylsiloxane) hybrid hydrogels.

Abstract excerpt

Growth factors have been shown to be potent mediators of osteogenesis. However, their use in tissue-engineered scaffolds not only can be costly but also can induce undesired responses in surrounding tissues. Thus, the ability to specifically induce osteogenic differentiation in the absence of exogenous growth factors through manipulation of scaffold material properties would be desirable for bone regeneration....
