Three-Dimensional Printed Titanium Scaffolds Enhance Osteogenic Differentiation and New Bone Formation by Cultured Adipose Tissue-Derived Stem Cells Through the IGF-1R/AKT/Mammalian Target of Rapamycin Complex 1 (mTORC1) Pathway.

CONCLUSIONS The 3D culture of ADSCs with 3DTi scaffolds enhanced osteogenic differentiation and new bone formation through the IGF-1R/AKT/mTORC1 pathway. This improved method of osteointegration may have clinical application in the preparation of bone grafts before implantation for improved repair of mandibular bone defects.
