Effect of calcium silicate cements on adipogenesis and in vivo bone regeneration. Lipid aggregates (black arrow heads) were randomly distributed around majority of α-MEM-cultured (control) OFMSCs (A), while wTC and wTC-αTCP extract-treated cells displayed fewer but structurally larger lipid aggregates (B, C) than control cells. Similarly OFMSCs pre-treated with material extracts regenerated appreciable in vivo bone (black solid arrows) structurally similar to those of control cells (D, E, F); and there were no differences in amount of bone regenerated by extract-treated and α-MEM-treated OFMSCs (G) [* = hydroxyapatite carrier; clear arrow = fibrous tissues].
