Recombinant Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein 9 (rhBMP9) Induced Osteoblastic Behavior on a Collagen Membrane Compared With rhBMP2

Abstract

Results indicate that the combination of collagen membranes with rhBMP9 induced significantly higher ALP mRNA expression and alizarin red staining compared with rhBMP2. These findings suggest that rhBMP9 may be a suitable growth factor for future regenerative procedures in bone biology.
