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 The combination of hydroxyapatite (HA) implants serving as osteoconductive scaffold with growth factors is an interesting approach for the improvement of bone defect healing. The purpose of this study was to test whether recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein‐2 (rhBMP‐2) coating o
## 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) was encapsulated in biodegradable poly(DL-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) capsules to regenerate bone by controlling the release rate of rhBMP-2. The rhBMP-2/PLGA capsules containing 12 g of rhBMP-2 were implanted in seven 15-mm segmental defects
