Abstract

The effects of the components of extracellular matrix on the bone formation and the kinetics of crystal growth of calcium phosphate have remained unknown. In this paper, we reported a method to investigate the role of Type I collagen and the interactions with other ECM proteins such as fibronectin and elastin during biomimic mineralization process in vitro. The early stage of mineralization was characterized by scanning probe microscopy (SPM) and shear modulation force microscopy (SMFM). The late stage of mineralization was investigated by synchrotron grazing incident x-ray diffraction (GIXD). The results demonstrate the cooperative interaction between type I collagen and noncollagenous proteins such as fibronectin or elastin could be essential for the biomineralization.
