Genetically active nano-calcium phosphate paste for bioactive bone grafts
Calcium phosphates make up the majority of synthetic bone substitution materials, owing to their similarity to bone itself. This newly developed material is made from calcium phosphate nanoparticles that also carry short chains of DNA into bone cells through transfection. This DNA encodes for proteins and growth factors that enhance the bioactivity of bone grafts, and help the material integrate into the body.
