Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 (BMP-2) and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Transfection to Human Periosteal Cells Enhances Osteoblast Differentiation and Bone Formation

Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 (BMP-2) and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Transfection to Human Periosteal Cells Enhances Osteoblast Differentiation and Bone Formation

Periosteum has been demonstrated to contain mesenchymal progenitor cells differentiating to osteoblasts, and both bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) may play important roles in cell-based approaches to bone regeneration. The purpose of this study was t...
