Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 in Development and Bone Homeostasis [PDF]
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are multi-functional growth factors belonging to the Transforming Growth Factor-Beta (TGF-β) superfamily. These proteins are essential to many developmental processes, including cardiogenesis, neurogenesis, and ...

Bone morphogenetic protein 2: heterologous expression and potential in bone regeneration
Currently, bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) is one of the two osteoinductive growth factors used in medical devices to promote bone formation. Typically, this protein is bought from commercial houses at high rates and in small quantities that are not

Ectopic Laryngeal Ossification after Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 [PDF]
We report two cases of ectopic bone formation in the head and neck following treatment with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2). Surgical pathologic data, laryngoscopy imaging, CT imaging, and patient medical history were obtained ...

Potentiating effect of AMD3100 on bone morphogenetic protein-2 induced bone regeneration [PDF]
Background AMD3100, a CXCR4 antagonist, is currently prescribed for activating the mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells. Recently, AMD3100 was shown to potentiate bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2)-induced bone formation by stimulating the ...

Cell-permeable bone morphogenetic protein 2 facilitates bone regeneration by promoting osteogenesis [PDF]
The use of the FDA-approved osteoinductive growth factor BMP2 is widespread for bone regeneration. However, its clinical application has been hindered by limitations in cell permeability and a short half-life in circulation.
