## Abstract Calcium phosphate cement (CPC) is a widely used bone substitute in the clinic; however, the low strength of CPC limits its utilization. In this study, we investigated mechanical influences of chitosan fiber combined with gelatin on CPC, and examined the biocompatibility of the new compo
The addition of growth factors, such as recombinant human transforming growth factor-b1 (rhTGF-b1) to calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) may improve bone regeneration. Previously we have shown that the differentiation of pre-osteoblastic cells from adult rat long bones was stimulated by rhTGF-b1 in CP
## Abstract To improve the __in vivo__ resorption of an injectable calcium phosphate cement (CPC) for bone tissue engineering purposes, in previous experiments macroporosity was introduced by the __in situ__ degradation of incorporated gelatin microspheres. Gelatin microspheres are also suitable ca
