Recent Findings from University of Southampton Has Provided New Information about Regenerative Medicine (An Investigation Into the Cytotoxic Effects of Microbubbles and Their Constituents On Osteosarcoma and Bone Marrow Stromal Cells).

A recent study conducted by researchers at the University of Southampton in the United Kingdom explored the cytotoxic effects of microbubbles and their constituents on osteosarcoma and bone marrow stromal cells. The study aimed to determine the potential toxicity of phospholipid-shelled microbubbles on human bone-derived cells. The results showed that the microbubbles had little effect on cell viability and growth, with polyoxyethylene(40) stearate (PEG40S) identified as the main inhibitory component. These findings suggest that microbubbles could be used for localized drug delivery in regenerative medicine without significant cytotoxic effects. [Extracted from the article]
