UV Photocatalysis of Bone Marrow-Derived Macrophages on TiO2 Nanotubes Mediates Intracellular Ca2+ Influx via Voltage-Gated Ca2+ Channels
Titanium (Ti) possesses excellent properties for use in dental implants but has low osteogenic surface properties that result in limiting rapid osseointegration. The physiological interaction between the surface of the implant material and bone cells, especially osteoclasts, is a crucial factor in d...
