## Abstract Under the influence of mechanical stress, cultured fibroblasts have a tendency to orient themselves perpendicular to the stress direction. Similar cell alignment can be induced by guiding cells along topographical clues, like microgrooves. The aim of this study was to evaluate cell beha
The chemical and topographic effects of commercially pure titanium on cell morphology and the regulation of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) gene expression, synthesis, and activity were investigated in early passage human gingival fibroblasts. Scanning electron microscopy showed that on smooth ti
It has been suggested that during wound healing microtextured surfaces can alter events at the interface between implant surface surface and surrounding tissues. To investigate this phenomenon, smooth and microtextured silicone rubber implants were implanted subcutaneously in rabbits for 3, 7, 42, a
