## Abstract Novel hydrogel materials based on oligo(poly(ethylene glycol) fumarate) (OPF) crosslinked with a redox radical initiation system were recently developed in our laboratory as injectable cell carriers for orthopedic tissue engineering applications. The effect of OPF hydrogel material prop

## Abstract Hyaluronan (HA) plays a predominant role in tissue morphogenesis, cell migration, proliferation, and cell differentiation. The aims of the present study were to investigate whether (i) prolonged presence of high concentration (4.0 mg/mL) 800 KDa HA and (ii) pretreatment with HA can modi
Marrow stroma has been shown to have osteogenic potential. Here we report the characterization of a unique stromal cell line derived from mouse bone marrow (MBA-15), which expresses osteoblastic phenotype in vitro and forms bone in vivo. More than 70% of cells in culture were histochemically positiv
## Abstract Porous 3D structures from mineralized collagen were fabricated applying a procedure in which collagen fibril reassembly and precipitation of nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (HA) occur simultaneously. The resulting matrices were evaluated __in vitro__ with respect to their suitability as
## Abstract We developed and used realβtime RTβPCR assays to investigate how the expression of typical osteoblastβrelated genes by human bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) is regulated by (i) the culture time in medium inducing osteogenic differentiation and (ii) the previous expansion in medium enha
