Migration of lymphocytes on fibronectin-coated surfaces: temporal evolution of migratory parameters.

abstract：:Osteoblasts proliferate slowly on the surface of calcium phosphate apatite which is widely used as a substrate biomaterial in bone regeneration. Owing to poor adhesion signaling in the cells grown on the calcium phosphate surface, inadequate growth factor signaling is generated to trigger cell cycle progression. The p...
