Bone Cell Biomechanics, Mechanobiology and Bone Diseases provides a
comprehensive overview of recent knowledge and advances of bone
cell biomechanics and related bone diseases, highlighting the
cellular basis for bone responding to mechanical stimuli. The book
not only provides a general overview of bone cell biology, but also
the most recent advances of bone cell biomechanics, mechanobiology,
the relationship between bone cell biomechanics and bone diseases,
as well as the underlying mechanism. This will be useful in
understanding the role of mechanobiology in bone health and bone
diseases, as well for investigating novel strategies for diagnosis
and therapy of bone diseases. Cells covered in the book include
osteocyte, BM-MSC, osteoblast, osteoclast and chondrocyte. Cone
diseases covered are osteoporosis, scoliosis and osteoarthritis.
This comprehensive reference is written for researchers,
scientists, clinicians and students.
Bone Repair Biomaterials: Regeneration and Clinical Applications,
Second Edition, provides comprehensive reviews on materials
science, engineering principles and recent advances. Sections
review the fundamentals of bone repair and regeneration, discuss
the science and properties of biomaterials used for bone repair,
including metals, ceramics, polymers and composites, and discuss
clinical applications and considerations, with chapters on such
topics as orthopedic surgery, tissue engineering, implant
retrieval, and ethics of bone repair biomaterials. This second
edition includes more chapters on relevant biomaterials and a
greatly expanded section on clinical applications, including bone
repair applications in dental surgery, spinal surgery, and
maxilo-facial and skull surgery. In addition, the book features
coverage of long-term performance and failure of orthopedic
devices. It will be an invaluable resource for researchers,
scientists and clinicians concerned with the repair and restoration
of bone.
