Reports from University of Rostock highlight recent research in bone research.

Researchers detail in 'In vivo analysis of biocompatibility and vascularization of the synthetic bone grafting substitute NanoBone,' new data in bone research. According to a study from Rostock, Germany, "One of the major challenges in the application of bone substitutes is adequate vascularization and biocompatibility of the implant. Thus, the temporal course of neovascularization and the microvascular inflammatory response of implants of NanoBone (fully synthetic nanocrystalline bone grafting material) were studied in vivo by using the mouse dorsal skinfold chamber model."

"Angiogenesis, microhemodynamics, and leukocyte-endothelial cell interaction were analyzed repetitively …
