Abstract

To investigate the effects of the Arg-Gly-Asp polypeptedes (RGD) peptides-modified porous tantalum surface on osteoblasts morphology and expressions of osteogenesis factors, and to evaluate RGD peptides promotes junctura ossium of tantalum-bone interface in vivo. RGD peptides of different concentrations (1 g/L, 5 g/L, and 10 g/L) were loaded to porous tantalum slices with a diameter of 10 mm and a thickness of 3 mm by physical absorption. The 3rd generation of MG63 cells were co-cultured with tantalum and divided into 4 groups: Ta-cells (control) group, 1 g/L cells/Ta/RGD group, 5 g/L cells/Ta/RGD group, and 10 g/L cells/Ta/RGD group. Porous tantalum compo-sites and osteoblasts-tantalum interface were observed by scanning electron microscopy. The adhesion rate of osteoblasts was detected and immunocytochemistry was used to detect the expressions of filamentous actin (F-actin), osteocalcin (OC) and fibronectin (FN). The scanning electron microscope (SEM) revealed that osteoblasts distributed on the surface of porous tantalum and secreted extracellular matrix on outside and inner of micro-pores. The osteoblasts adhesion rate on porous tantalum modified with RGD was higher than that in the unmodified porous tantalum at the end of ...Continue Reading

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function.
