Therapeutic effects of Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1α (HIF-1α) on bone formation around implants in diabetic mice
2018-08-15
Abstract excerpt
Patients with uncontrolled diabetes are susceptible to implant failure due to impaired bone metabolism. Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 1α (HIF-1α), a transcription factor that is up-regulated in response to reduced oxygen condition during the bone repair process after fracture or osteotomy, is known to mediate angiogenesis and osteogenesis. However, its function is inhibited under hyperglycemic conditions in diabetic pa...
