REDUCED GRAPHENE OXIDE COATING ENHANCES OSTEOGENIC DIFFERENTIATION OF HUMAN MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS ON TI SURFACES

Reduced graphene oxide coating enhances osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells on Ti surfaces

Abstract Background Titanium (Ti) has been utilized as hard tissue replacement owing to its superior mechanical and bioinert property, however, lack in tissue compatibility and biofunctionality has limited its clinical use.Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) is one of the graphene derivatives that possess extraordinary biofunctionality and are known to in
