An comparison study between strontium nanoparticles and rhBMP2
Giulia Montagna, Francesco Cristofaro, Lorenzo Fassina +7
The osteoinductive property of strontium was repeatedly proven in the last decades. Compelling data demonstrated that strontium hydroxyapatite nanoparticles exe…
The effect of pulsed electromagnetic field exposure on osteoinduction of human mesenchymal stem cells cultured on nano- surfaces
Nora Bloise, Loredana Petecchia, Gabriele Ceccarelli +9
Human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBM-MSCs) are considered a great promise in the repair and regeneration of bone. Considerable efforts have been oriented towards u…
Cardiac kinematic parameters computed from video of beating heart
Lorenzo Fassina, Giacomo Rozzi, Stefano Rossi +8
Mechanical function of the heart during open-chest cardiac surgery is exclusively monitored by echocardiographic techniques. However, little is known about local kinematics, partic…
Modulation of the cardiomyocyte contraction inside a hydrostatic pressure bioreactor: verification of the Frank-Starling law
Lorenzo Fassina, Giovanni Magenes, Roberto Gimmelli +1
We have studied beating mouse cardiac syncytia in order to assess the inotropic, ergotropic, and chronotropic effects of both increasing and decreasing hydrosta…
Field models and numerical dosimetry inside an extremely-low-frequency electromagnetic bioreactor: the theoretical link between the electromagnetically induced mechanical forces and the biological mechanisms of the cell tensegrity
Maria Evelina Mognaschi, Paolo Di Barba, Giovanni Magenes +3
We have implemented field models and performed a detailed numerical dosimetry inside our extremely-low-frequency electromagnetic bioreactor which has been successfully used in $\te…
