Cell Biology (B)

Project part B (cell biology) has eight projects with cell biological (B1, B2, B4 – B7) and clinical focus (B8, B9) with imaging technologies. TRR 79 seeks to generate aetiology-adapted materials and therefore these projects evaluate the local tissue situation after destruction of the bony integrity in tumour (B1) and osteporosis patients (B2).

Project B1

Bone destruction in multiple myeloma: pathogenesis and model as basis for therapeutic targeting by of bone substance defects by etiology-based bone substitute material

Project B4

Influence of multiphase bone replacement materials and surface-modified titanium alloys on the differentiation of osteoblasts/MSC

Project B 5

Modification of cell-cell- and cell-matrix-communication within bone tissue by new materials

Project B7

Influence of aetiology-adapted bone substitutes on the regulation of bone remodeling, microvascularisation and innervation in systemically diseased bone

Project B8

Investigation of bone defects and microcirculation with volume computed tomography and dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging

Project B9

Quantitative studies of metabolism (F-18-deoxyglucose) and bone metabolism (F-18-fluoride) with dynamic positron emission tomography-computed tomography (dPET-CT)

Project B10 (new)

Cellular differences in sensitivity against drug releasing bone substitute materials within physiological and pathological bone remodeling

Project B12 (new)

Molecular characterization of interactions between bone-substitute material and surrounding tissue in sheep, rat, and myeloma-mouse-model by transcriptome profiling using next generation RNA-Sequencing and functional validation
