Extracellular matrix-related gene expressions by HGFs cultured on four different titanium surfaces at Days 3, 6, and 9: (A) VEGFA, (B) ITGB, (C) ICAM1, and (D) LAMA1. Inverse concentration-dependent effects of NT-F-H were observed at Day 3 on (C) and (D).

Notes: ^#Upregulated compared with PT (P < 0.01), *downregulated (P < 0.01), significant difference exists between 1*, 2*, 1^#, and 2^# (P < 0.01).

Abbreviations: HGF, human gingival fibroblast; ICAM1, intercellular adhesion molecule 1; ITGB, β-integrin; LAMA1, laminin-1; NT, nanotube; PT, polished titanium; VEGFA, vascular endothelial growth factor A.
