Osteogenic Potential of Cultured Bone/Ceramic Construct: Comparison with Marrow Mesenchymal Cell/Ceramic Composite

Osteogenesis occurs in porous hydroxyapatite (HA) when porous HA blocks combined with marrow mesenchymal cells are grafted in vivo. In vitro bone formation occurs in HA pores when HA combined with marrow cells is cultured in osteogenic medium containing dexamethasone. This cultured bone/HA construct...
