摘要:
Osteogenic compositions include a decellularized extracellular matrix tissue and bone morphogenic protein, preferably BMP-2. The compositions make beneficial use of the BMP, which can be used at relatively low doses and can bind to native components (e.g., native sulfated glycosaminoglycans such as heparin and/or heparan sulfate) remaining in the decellularized extracellular matrix tissue. Methods for preparation and use of such compositions are also described. The compositions and related methods can be used in the treatment of diseased or damaged bone tissue.
摘要:
Compositions and methods for treating diseased or damaged bone, preferably ischemic and/or necrotic bone, include the use of a combination of endothelial progenitor cells and mesenchymal stem cells, desirably also in conjunction with a collagenous extracellular matrix tissue. Methods for preparation of such compositions are also described.
