Bone material taken from the same individual.
Bone material taken from another individual of the same species.
Evaluation of the effect of an agent (e.g. BMP) on a living organism.
Breakdown of material in living tissue.
Bone material used to replace bone tissue in a defect.
Material used to deliver BMP into the body. The carrier is thought to immobilize the inductive agent and to provide a slow release of the agent.
A process whereby certain agent(s) attract cells to a certain site.
The single most abundant protein in mammals.
Composite material is composed of at least two different materials or phases acting together as an implant.
A defect in bone which does not heal if left untreated.
A medical devise made of one or more biomaterials that is intentionally placed within the body, either totally or partially buried beneath the epithelial surface.
A cell with an ability to differentiate in many different ways.
Direct bone-to-biomaterial interface without interconnecting fibrous
tissue.
A bone-forming cell.
A bone-resorbing cell.
The ability to guide bone formation on a material surface in a bony environment.
A process whereby one tissue or a product derived from it causes another undifferentiated tissue to differentiate into bone.
Bone material taken from an individual of another species.
