Experiment 1 Reporting the Effect of This Combination |
[1] |
In-vivo Model |
Bilateral 5-mm-diameter calvarial defects were created in adult Wistar rats and filled with preparations of different doses of simvastatin (0, 0.01, 0.1, 0.25 and 0.5 mg) combined with a-TCP particles or left empty. |
Experimental
Result(s) |
When combined with alpha-TCP particles, 0.1 mg simvastatin is the optimal dose for stimulation of the maximum bone regeneration in rat calvarial defects without inducing inflammation. |
