    • A novel hybrid nanofibrous strategy to target progenitor cells for cost-effective in situ angiogenesis 

      Sachot, Nadège; Castaño Linares, Óscar; Oliveira, Hugo; Martí Muñoz, Joan; Roguska, Agata; Amedee, Joelle; Lewandowska, Malgorzata; Planell Estany, Josep Anton; Engel López, Elisabeth (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016-11-02)
      Article
      Open Access
      Although the impact of composites based on Ti-doped calcium phosphate glasses is low compared with that of bioglass, they have been already shown to possess great potential for bone tissue engineering. Composites made of ...
    • Angiogenesis in bone regeneration: tailored calcium release in hybrid fibrous scaffolds 

      Castaño Linares, Óscar; Sachot, Nadège; Xuriguera Martin, Elena; Engel López, Elisabeth; Planell Estany, Josep Anton; Park, Jaegyun; Jin, Guang-Zhen; Kim, Tae-Hyun; Kim, Joong-Hyun; Kim, Hae-Won (2014-05-28)

      In bone regeneration, silicon-based calcium phosphate glasses (Bioglasses) have been widely used since the 1970s. However, they dissolve very slowly because of their high amount of Si (SiO2 > 45%). Recently, our group has ...
    • Design of hybrid fibers for bone tissue engineering 

      Sachot, Nadège (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2014-07-03)
      Doctoral thesis
      Open Access
      Most of the conventional organic-inorganic composite materials developed for bone tissue engineering do not possess intimate interactions between their constituents. As a consequence, they generally degrade in a non-homogeneous ...
    • Fast-degrading PLA/ORMOGLASS fibrous composite scaffold leads to a calcium-rich angiogenic environment 

      Sachot, Nadège; Roguska, Agata; Planell Estany, Josep Anton; Lewandowska, Malgorzata; Engel López, Elisabeth; Castaño Linares, Óscar (2017-01-01)
      Article
      Open Access
      The success of scaffold implantation in acellular tissue engineering approaches relies on the ability of the material to interact properly with the biological environment. This behavior mainly depends on the design of the ...
    • Hierarchically engineered fibrous scaffolds for bone regeneration 

      Sachot, Nadège; Castaño Linares, Óscar; Mateos Timoneda, Miguel Ángel; Engel López, Elisabeth; Planell Estany, Josep Anton (2013-08-28)
      Article
      Open Access
      Surface properties of biomaterials play a major role in the governing of cell functionalities. It is well known that mechanical, chemical and nanotopo- graphic cues, for example, influence cell proliferation and ...
    • Optimization of blend parameters for the fabrication of polycaprolactone-silicon based ormoglass nanofibers by electrospinning 

      Sachot, Nadège; Castaño Linares, Óscar; Planell Estany, Josep Anton; Engel López, Elisabeth (2015-08-01)
      Article
      Open Access
      Electrospinning is a method that can be used to efficiently produce scaffolds that mimic the fibrous structure of natural tissue, such as muscle structures or the extracellular matrix of bone. The technique is often used ...
    • Towards 4th generation biomaterials: a covalent hybrid polymer-ormoglass architecture 

      Sachot, Nadège; Mateos Timoneda, Miguel Ángel; Planell Estany, Josep Anton; Velders, A. H.; lewandowska, M.; Engel López, Elisabeth; Castaño Linares, Óscar (2015-01-01)
      Article
      Open Access
      Hybrid materials are being extensively investigated with the aim of mimicking the ECM microenvironment to develop effective solutions for bone tissue engineering. However, the common drawbacks of a hybrid material are the ...
