摘要:
The present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising a morphogenic protein stimulatory factor (MPSF) for improving the tissue inductive activity of morphogenic proteins, particularly those belonging to the BMP protein family. Methods for improving the tissue inductive activity of a morphogenic protein in a mammal using those compositions are provided. This invention also provides implantable morphogenic devices comprising a morphogenic protein and a MPSF disposed within a carrier, that are capable of inducing tissue formation in allogeneic and xenogeneic implants. Methods for inducing local tissue formation from a progenitor cell in a mammal using those devices are also provided. A method for accelerating allograft repair in a mammal using morphogenic devices is provided. This invention also provides a prosthetic device comprising a prosthesis coated with a morphogenic protein and a MPSF, and a method for promoting in vivo integration of an implantable prosthetic device to enhance the bond strength between the prosthesis and the existing target tissue at the joining site. Methods of treating tissue degenerative conditions in a mammal using the pharmaceutical compositions are also provided.
摘要:
Methods of inducing the expression of a Smad in a cell or tissue comprising the step of contacting the cell or tissue capable of expressing the Smad with a bone morphogenic protein are provided. Methods of inducing tissue formation and repairing a tissue defect or regenerating tissue, at a target locus in a mammal comprising the step of administering to the target locus a Smad are also provided.
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to methods and compositions for identifying morphogenic protein analogs. In one embodiment, this invention relates to an osteogenic protein reponsive transcription inhibitory element. This invention also relates to the identified morphogenic protein analogs which can mimic the biological effects of morphogenic proteins, particularly those relating to the BMP family such as osteogenic protein (OP-1), on the regulation of gene expression and tissue inductive capabilities.
