Background Trauma, osteomyelitis, bone tumour resections and congenital deformities are the main causes of bone deficiency in which autologous graft is the preferred treatment, but usually the bone supplies are limited.

Structural and Metabolic Changes in Bone
As an essential component of the skeleton, bone tissue provides solid support for the body and protects vital organs. Bone tissue is a reservoir of calcium, phosphate, and other ions that can be released or stored in a controlled manner to provide ...

Genetics of ovulation rate in farm animals [PDF]
Rate of ovulation (i.e. fecundity) is largely influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. The ovarian growth factorsincluding members of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) play a central role in determining ovulation quota and litter size ...

Functional analysis of alleged NOGGIN mutation G92E disproves its pathogenic relevance.
We identified an amino acid change (p.G92E) in the Bone Morphogenetic Protein antagonist NOGGIN in a 22-month-old boy who presented with a unilateral brachydactyly type B phenotype. Brachydactyly type B is a skeletal malformation that has been associated

Development of an Aqueous Suspension of Recombinant Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 (rhBMP-2) [PDF]
Recombinant human Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 (rhBMP-2) is a morphogen with the ability to induce the formation of cartilage and new bone. In the product currently on the market for some special orthopaedic indications, rhBMP-2 is implanted by invasive ...

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.

The creation of entirely synthetically derived bone substitute materials which are as effective as autologous bone grafts is desirable. Osteogenesis involves the concerted action of several proteins within a signaling cascade.
