Integrin-binding peptides increase cell adhesion to naive hydroxyapatite (HA), however, in the body, HA becomes rapidly modified by protein adsorption. Previously we reported that, when combined with an adsorbed protein layer, RGD peptides interfered with cell adhesion to HA. In the current study we evaluated mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) interactions with HA disks coated with the collagen-mimetic peptides,...
Given that hydroxyapatite (HA) biomaterials are highly efficient at adsorbing proadhesive proteins, we questioned whether functionalizing HA with RGD peptides would have any benefit. In this study, we implanted uncoated or RGD-coated HA disks into rat tibiae for 30min to allow endogenous protein adsorption, and then evaluated mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) interactions with the retrieved disks. These...
