To determine if recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) can be adsorbed onto porous ceramic hydroxyapatite (HA) and promote the integration of HA to host bone, 54 subperiosteal pockets were created on the skulls of 19 adult Pasteurella-free white rabbits. Fourteen HA implants were s

## Abstract Research efforts aim at enhancing early osseointegration of cementless implants to improve early fixation and, thus, reduce the risk of loosening. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) 2 had a positive effect on the osseointegration of
Recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) is known to induce orthotopic and ectopic bone formation in vivo. Several in vitro studies using rat or mouse clonal cell lines have shown that rhBMP-2 may be involved in the differentiation of osteoblasts from osteoblast precursor cells or st
## Abstract The use of recombinant human bone morphogenetic proteinβ2 (rhBMPβ2) to induce ectopic bone formation requires a carrier. Type I atelocollagen, a biomaterial with a porous structure, excellent operational features, and biocompatibility, is an effective carrier for rhBMPβ2. However, the c
This study was carried out to determine the effect of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein (rhBMP) pharmacokinetics (PK) on rhBMP-induced osteoinductive activity. It was our working hypothesis that the PK of a rhBMP significantly affects its osteoinductive activity. The PK of various rhBMPs
