Background. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are potent inducers of bone formation. Functional and immunohistochemical studies have identified BMPs in a subset of osteosarcomas. In the present study, the authors extend the analysis of BMP expression to other bone and soft tissue sarcomas. Methods

## Abstract The distribution and staining intensity of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) 2, 4, 6, and 7 were assessed by immunohistochemistry in ectopic bone induced in Nu/Nu mice by Saosโ2 cell derived implants. Devitalized Saosโ2 cells or their extracts can induce endochondral bone formation whe
## Background: The mechanism of occurrence of calcification and ossification in pilomatricoma remains unclear. ## Objectives: To elucidate the pathogenesis of calcification and ossification in pilomatricoma we examined the role of bone morphogenetic protein (bmp)-2, which plays important parts in
## Purpose This review evaluates the application of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) in delayed bone repair, aiming at a broad audience from clinicians to scientists. Next to an overview of the role of the different BMPs, their antagonists and their current applications, special attention is focu
