PRODUCTS COMPRISING AN EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX MATERIAL AND OSTEOGENIC PROTEIN

Osteogenic compositions include a decellularized extracellular matrix tissue and bone morphogenic protein, preferably BMP-2. The compositions make beneficial use of the BMP, which can be used at relatively low doses and can bind to native components (e.g., native sulfated glycosaminoglycans such as...

Zusammenfassung:Osteogenic compositions include a decellularized extracellular matrix tissue and bone morphogenic protein, preferably BMP-2. The compositions make beneficial use of the BMP, which can be used at relatively low doses and can bind to native components (e.g., native sulfated glycosaminoglycans such as heparin and/or heparan sulfate) remaining in the decellularized extracellular matrix tissue. Methods for preparation and use of such compositions are also described. The compositions and related methods can be used in the treatment of diseased or damaged bone tissue.
