Comparative Study of the Cytotoxicity of Hydroxyapatite, Tricalcium Phosphate and Calcium Phosphate Nanomaterials on Panc-1 and Hek293 Cell Line
(Elsevier, 2022) Çeşmeli, Selin; Öksel Karakuş, Ceyda
Calcium phosphate-based bioceramic nanoparticles have been actively used in a range of therapeutic applications. Although they are mostly considered as biocompatible materials, the circulation of nanoparticles in the bloodstream raise further questions as to what degree of cellular damage they are capable of causing once carried out to vital organs such as kidney and pancreas. Therefore, there is a clear need to explore potential cellular damage induced by commercially used bioceramic nanoparticles such as hydroxyapatite (HAp), tricalcium phosphate (TCP) and calcium phosphate (CaP).
