A significantly higher OP response to Ti surfaces was seen in the SLV selected population, in particular, when selected cells were cultured back onto SLA and SLV. It is interesting to note that this population responds to TCP, SMO and SMOd surfaces in a way similar to the parent population's OP response to SLV (labelled ns, Fig. 10b).
No significant differences in the expression of Col1A1 and Casp3 were seen between the Ti selected and parent populations (Fig. 10c and d respectively).
