How Do Nanostructures Enhance Bone Cell Proliferation?
Nanostructures promote bone cell proliferation by offering a surface that is more conducive to cellular interaction. The surface topography at the nanoscale provides physical cues that influence cell behavior. For instance, nanopatterned surfaces can enhance protein adsorption, which is important for cell attachment and subsequent proliferation. Additionally, nanoscale features can modulate the differentiation of stem cells into osteoblasts, the cells responsible for new bone formation.
