Long acting hyaluronate--exendin 4 conjugate for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

abstract：:It is widely accepted that implant surface factors affect the quality of the bone-to-implant interface. Recent additional treatments superimposed on moderately rough cpTitanium surface provide further enhancement of bone-to-implant contact. The aim of this study was to compare osteoinductive and bone-specific gene exp...
