The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) of the knee fails to heal after primary repair. Here we hypothesize that a beneficial biologic repair response can be induced by placing a collagen-platelet rich plasma (collagen-PRP) material into a central ACL defect. A collagen-PRP scaffold was used to treat a

## Abstract The present study was designed to ascertain if dynamic ionic matrices that mimic the mineralization front could be used as active scaffolds for bone repair. Dentinal phosphophoryn calcium salts were extracted from unerupted bovine dentin using chatopic buffers and EDTA. The phosphophory
The purpose of this study was to analyze histomorphometrically the influence of the ratio of particulate autogenous bone (AB) graft/platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on bone healing in surgically created critical-size defects (CSD) in rat calvaria. Fifty rats were divided into five groups: Group C (control
## Abstract Recent advances in tissue engineering techniques have allowed porous biomaterials to be combined with osteogenic cells for effective bone regeneration. We developed a simple low‐pressure cell‐loading method using only syringes and stopcocks, and examined the effect of this method on ost
## Abstract A hydroxyapatite/collagen (HAC) composite was produced to mimic the natural extracellular matrix of bone, with the collagen serving as a template for apatite formation. A three‐dimensional highly porous scaffold was developed by mixing HAC with poly(L‐lactic acid) (PLA) using a thermall
