Smart Hydrogels for the Augmentation of Bone Regeneration by Endogenous Mesenchymal Progenitor Cell Recruitment

Abstract The treatment of bone defects with recombinant bone morphogenetic protein‐2 (BMP‐2) requires high doses precluding broad clinical application. Here, a bioengineering approach is presented that strongly improves low‐dose BMP‐2‐based bone regeneration by mobilizing healing‐associated mesenchy...
