Surgical implantation of rhBMP-4/ACS may be used to support bone regeneration in the rat calvarial critical-sized defect, and rhBMP-4/beta-TCP may be able to regenerate bone in the rat calvarial critical-sized defect without complication. In addition, both ACS and beta-TCP may be considered as available carriers for rhBMP-4.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
