The shape and size of hydroxyapatite particles dictate inflammatory responses following implantation

Abstract The extent of regeneration following biomaterial implantation is dependent on the microenvironment surrounding the implant. Since implant composition can have a profound effect on inflammation, it is essential to understand this process as a non-resolving inflammatory response can lead to f...
