Amorphous titanium oxide (aTiO2) thin films biofunctionalized with CAP-p15 induce the mineralized-like differentiation of human oral mucosal stem cells (hOMSCs)

Insufficient osseointegration of titanium-based implants is a factor conditioning their long-term success. Therefore, different surface modifications, such as multifunctional oxide coatings, calcium phosphates, and the addition of molecules such as peptides, have been developed to improve the bioactivity of titanium-based biomaterials. In this work, we investigate the behavior of human oral mucosal stem cells (hOMSCs) cultured on amorphous titanium oxide (aTiO
