2D magnesium phosphate resorbable coating to enhance cell adhesion on titanium surfaces by Amir, Elhadad

“…However, Titanium (Ti) implants have a disadvantage due to lack of bioactivity, potentially affecting osseointegration and osteoconductive capabilities, and may take several months to integrate with bone tissue. In this work, we prepared a layer of 2D magnesium phosphate (MgPi) coating on the surface of titanium surfaces via the spin-coating technique. …”

Targeting acute myeloid leukemia cells with novel photosensitive ruthenium-based metal-organic compounds. (c2015) by Azar, Daniel Fadi

“…Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a class of hematopoietic malignancies that is characterized by the accumulation of abnormally differentiated myeloid cells and their infiltration into the bone marrow, blood and other tissues. Prognosis of patients diagnosed with AML remains low in all age groups, and most currently approved therapies against AML have serious side-effects and limited potency, necessitating the development of alternative, more potent approaches that could specifically target cancerous cells. …”
