## Abstract Although transforming growth factors‐β and bone morphogenetic proteins are both capable of inducing bone formation __in vivo__, the target cells of their osteoinductive actions may be different. To evaluate periosteal cells as potential targets of the actions of transforming growth fact
Bone morphogenic protein-7 (BMP-7) is a key protein involved in liver organogenesis and development. The physiological circulating concentration of BMP-7 is between 100 and 300 pg/ml. BMP-7 expression is absent in the liver, but the receptors for BMP-7 are present on adult hepatocytes. Therefore, we
