Investigations into the Ulnar Response to Mechanical Stimuli Activating Lamellar and Woven Bone Formation
Woven and lamellar bone formation can be stimulated using mechanical loading. Woven bone forms rapidly in response to damaging loading in a disorganized manner with low mineral density. In contrast, lamellar bone formation can be induced in the absence of damage, and is characterized by its slow, …

Cellular Responses to Short-Term Mechanical Loading: Relative Involvement of Osteoblasts, Pre-Osteoblasts, and Osteoprogenitor Cells
Bone is an organ that is highly sensitive to changes in its mechanical loading environment. Although it is known that increased mechanical loading results in new bone formation, the cellular mechanisms underlying this response remain unclear. This investigation applied in vivo and in vitro …

Multi-scale characterization of swine femoral cortical bone and long bone defect repair by regeneration
… of structure and mechanical properties of bone as a function of age and regeneration of bone in long bone critical sized defects. In the first part of this study, a multi-scale experimental work was carried out to characterize cortical bone as a heterogeneous material with hierarchical …

Octacalcium Phosphate - Metabolite Composites: model compounds for bone mineral structure
Bone turnover has important impacts on bone health. The process modifies weak primary woven bone into the strong lamellar bone, repairs damage in bone, and maintains appropriate calcium homeostasis. The process relies heavily on controlled osteoclastic resorption by dissolution of mineral in the …

The effect of bone anabolic stimuli on human osteoblast to osteocyte transition.
Osteoporosis, a condition defined by a low bone mineral density (BMD) and associated with increased fracture risk, is associated with a decrease in both osteocyte (OY) density and viability. A great deal of evidence implicates OY as central to bone physiology and pathology (1). However, human OY …

Influence of Biomaterials in Alveolar Bone Regeneration and Preservation
… documented. However, they require a minimal bone quantity (in height and thickness). But alveolar bone defects are very frequent, for instance due to periodontitis, traumatism or acute dental infection. Moreover, a simple tooth extraction leads to significant bone resorption. Therefore, …
