## Abstract Highly porous poly(DLโlactic acid) (PDLLA) foams and Bioglassยฎโfilled PDLLA composite foams were characterized and evaluated __in vitro__ as bone tissue engineering scaffolds. The hypothesis was that the combination of PDLLA with Bioglassยฎ in a porous structure would result in a bioreso
## Abstract During the last decades, different materials of both natural and synthetic origin have been developed with the aim of inducing and controlling osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). In order for that to happen, it is necessary that the material to be implanted obey
Cardiac tissue engineering is focused on obtaining functional cardiomyocyte constructs to provide an alternative to cellular cardiomyoplasty. Mechanical stimuli have been shown to stimulate protein expression and the differentiation of mammalian cells from contractile tissues. Our aim was to obtain
