Abstract:
Bone regeneration process involves upregulation of various bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and their receptors, and several lines of evidence have demonstrated that BMP signaling plays a crucial role in bone regeneration. Recent research using conditional knockout mice of BMP-2 in limb revealed the essential role of BMP-2 during bone regeneration. Recombinant human BMPs and gene therapy of BMPs have been successfully applied to bone repair including application to dental implant.
