Abstract:The present work aims to develop optimized scaffolds for bone repair by incorporating mesoporous nanoparticles into them, thereby combining bioactive factors for cell growth and preventing rapid release or loss of effectiveness. We synthesized biocompatible and biodegradable scaffolds designed for the controlled codelivery of curcumin (CUR) and recombinant human bone morphogenic protein-2 (rhBMP-2). Active agents in dendritic silica/titania mesoporous nanoparticles (DSTNs) were incorporated at different weight… Show more
