Hypoxia compromises the differentiation of human osteosarcoma cells to CAR-R, a hydroxylated derivative of lithocholic acid and potent agonist of the vitamin D receptor (2025)
Journal Article

The active metabolite of vitamin D3, calcitriol (1,25D), is widely recognised for its direct anti-proliferative and pro-differentiation effects. However, 1,25D is calcaemic, which restricts its clinical use for cancer treatment. Non-calcaemic agonist...

Comparison of MXene and SWCNTs effectiveness for osteoblast differentiation: A preliminary study with MG-63 cells (2024)
Journal Article

The exceptional chemical and physical properties of nanomaterials have attracted growing interest in the field of bone tissue engineering. Single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and MXenes are two types of unique nanomaterials that have shown promis...

Ternary nanocomposite potentiates the lysophosphatidic acid effect on human osteoblast (MG63) maturation (2023)
Journal Article

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the potential of ternary nanocomposite (TNC) to support MG63 osteoblast maturation to EB1089-(3S)1-fluoro-3-hydroxy-4-(oleoyloxy)butyl-1-phosphonate (FHBP) cotreatment. Materials & methods: Binary (P25/reduced gra... Read More about Ternary nanocomposite potentiates the lysophosphatidic acid effect on human osteoblast (MG63) maturation.

An N-cyanoamide derivative of lithocholic acid co-operates with lysophosphatidic acid to promote human osteoblast (MG63) differentiation (2023)
Journal Article

Less-calcaemic vitamin D receptor (VDR) agonists have the potential to promote osteoblast maturation in a bone regenerative setting. The emergence of lithocholic acid (LCA) as a bona fide VDR agonist holds promise as an adjunct for arthroplasty follo...

Development of an antimicrobial lipid coating to prevent infections in uncemented joint replacements (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Preventing infections in joint replacements is a major ongoing challenge, with limited effective clinical technologies currently available for uncemented knee and hip prostheses. This research aims to develop a coating for titanium implants, consisti... Read More about Development of an antimicrobial lipid coating to prevent infections in uncemented joint replacements.
