Tissue Engineering

Researchers' work from Osaka University focuses on tissue engineering

Published in Hematology Week, May 3rd, 2010

Fresh data on tissue engineering are presented in the report 'Apatite containing aspartic acid for selective protein loading.' According to recent research from Suita, Japan, "Physico-chemical modifications of hydroxyapatite (HAp) materials are considered as pre-requisites for the development of new bioactive carrier materials for drug delivery and tissue engineering applications. Since acidic amino acids have well-documented affinities to both HAp and basic proteins, HAp modified by aspartic acid (Asp, acidic amino acid) might be one of the candidate substrates for a basic protein carrier."

"Here, we synthesized HAp in the presence of various concentrations of Asp and...
