Over the past decade, a large number of biomaterials have been proposed as artificial bone fillers for repairing bone defects. The material most widely used in clinical medicine is hydroxyapatite. The aim of our investigation was to study the effect of hydroxyapatite size mechanism on osteoblasts.

✦ Synopsis
An in vitro method is described to assess the influence of synthetic calcium phosphate powders on osteoblast activities. Human osteoblast cell cultures were established from iliac crest. MC3T3-El, an established osteogenic cell line, was employed as a control. Scanning and transmission electron microscopic observations clearly demonstrated the internalization of particles of calcium phosphate by the two ost e o b l a s t c e l l p o p u l a t i o n s . A s a consequence to the phagocytotic process, RNA transcription and protein synthesis were stimulated, as indicated by the measurements of labeled uridine, leucine and proline uptakes. From these data, it is proposed that such an in vitro model, using one of the specific cell types involved in the tissue responses to implants, could be useful to assess the biological response at the cell-biomaterial interaction.
