Popis: To investigate the efficacy of endocrine parathyroid hormone treatment on tissue-engineered bone regeneration, massive femoral defects in C57Bl/6 mice were reconstructed with either 100:0 or 85:15 poly-lactic acid (PLA)/beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffolds (hereafter PLA or PLA/βTCP, respectively), which were fabricated with low porosity (
