Surface Charge Regulation of Osteogenic Differentiation of Mesenchymal Stem Cell on Polarized Ferroelectric Crystal Substrate

Abstract

Polarized ferroelectric crystal lithium niobate wafers with different cuts are selected to offer differently charged surfaces. By induction of the mesenchymal stem cells differentiation into osteoblasts on different charged surfaces, the specific osteogenic-associated markers are assessed and the results illustrate that the positively charged wafer surface enhances rBMMSCs osteogenic differentiation.
