Effect of bone morphogenetic protein‐2, demineralized bone matrix and systemic parathyroid hormone (1‐34) on local bone formation in a rat calvaria critical‐size defect model

Abstract

To determine the potential of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein‐2 (rhBMP‐2) soak‐loaded on to an absorbable collagen sponge (ACS) to induce local bone formation compared with the clinical reference demineralized bone matrix (DBM) and to investigate potential additive/synergistic effects of exogenous parathyroid hormone (PTH).
