Bone substitute effect on vascularization and bone remodeling after application of phVEGF165 transfected BMSC [PDF]
VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) promotes vascularization and remodeling of bone substitutes. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of distinct resorbable ceramic carriers on bone forming capacities of VEGF transfected bone marrow ...
