Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are factors that promote osteoblastic cell differentiation and osteogenesis. It is unknown whether BMPs may act on human osteoblastic cells by increasing immature cell growth and/or differentiation. We investigated the short- and long-term effects of recombinant hu
## Abstract Implants of defatted, freezeβdried Saosβ2 human osteosarcoma cells grown to confluency induce __de novo__ bone formation in athymic mice. These cells are also richly endowed with bone morphogenetic proteins and express mRNA for bone morphogenetic proteins 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6, as well as f
We have examined the effects of BMP-2 on the expression of bone matrix proteins in both human bone marrow stromal cells (HBMSC) and human osteoblasts (HOB) and their proliferation and mineralization. Both HBMSC and HOB express BMP-2/-4 type I and type II receptors. Treatment of these two cell types
