| Research Abstract |
Biological apatite presented in bone and teeth of mammals contains various minerals, and has lots of defects with nano-scale sizes in the crystal structure. In the present study, we fabricated hydroxyapatite ceramics including bone minerals (bone HAp ceramics) as model materials to clarify the relationship between nano-defect structure and bioactivity of biological apatite. The results of high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM) revealed that bone HAp ceramics contained more defects and strains compared to pure HAp ceramics. In addition, osteoblasts derived from rat bone marrow cells were seeded on bone HAp ceramics, together with pure HAp ceramics as a control. The bone HAp ceramics promoted the differentiation into osteoblast compared to pure HAp ceramics. The present bone HAp ceramics may be expected as next-generation artificial bone graft.
