Notes:
Hydroxyapatite-tricalcium phosphate (HA-TCP) is a new kind of material which shows goodbiocompatibility, biological degradability, and porosity. This study aimed to determine the effectivenessof HA-TCP as a bone tissue engineering scaffold. In this study, critical size cranial defects werereconstructed with compounds of autogenous bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) and HA-TCP. Theresulting grafts were examined by X-ray, histological examination, semi-quantitative analysis ofosteogenesis, immunochemical examination (collagen type I and III), scanning electron microscopy andtransmission electron microscopy. The results showed that HA-TCP is a good bone tissue engineeringscaffold and BMSCs/HA-TCP is a promising technique for reconstruction of bone defects
