In this study, we performed a comparative analysis of the effects of marine mollusk shells and their bioactivities on osteoblasts and osteoclasts.

Different surface morphologies but similar elements were found on the surfaces of all shell groups, and additional elements, particularly silicon, were found on the surface of A. granulosa. After growing osteoblasts on the shells for 4-7 days, C. belcheri, P. viridis, and A. granulosa shells had significantly more cells than P. undulata shells. Similar osteoblast differentiation was observed in all shell groups after 7-14 days. All shell groups, particularly C. belcheri and P. viridis, favored osteoclast formation.
