Bacterial cellulose membrane conjugated with plant-derived osteopontin: Preparation and its potential for bone tissue regeneration
Bacterial cellulose membrane (BCM) has been recently recognized as a new generation of carbohydrate-based nanomaterial that possesses a great potential in tissue engineering applications. This research aims to develop an active non-resorbable guided tissue regeneration (GTR) membrane from BCM by conjugating with plant-derived recombinant human osteopontin (p-rhOPN), an economically produced and RGD-containing biomolecule. The BCM …
