Bare metal stents (BMSs) of stainless steel (SS) were surface engineered to develop nanoscale titania topography using a combination of physical vapor deposition and thermochemical processing. The nanoleafy architecture formed on the stent surface remained stable and adherent upon repeated crimping and expansion, as well as under flow. This titania nanoengineered stent showed a preferential proliferation of endothelial cells over smooth muscle cells in vitro, which is an essential requirement fo ...[more]
