Effects of Aging on Bone Formation Induced by BMP-2 using Low-intensity Pulsed Ultrasound
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of aging on bone formation induced by Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 (BMP-2) using low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS)in 12-week-old (12w group) and 70-week-old (70w group) Wistar rats.The experimental sites (palatal subperiosteal sites) were d...

Zusammenfassung: | The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of aging on bone formation induced by Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 (BMP-2) using low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS)in 12-week-old (12w group) and 70-week-old (70w group) Wistar rats.The experimental sites (palatal subperiosteal sites) were divided into three sites as follows: BMP site, BMP-2 was implanted; LI-BMP site, LIPUS treatment was performed every three days after implantation of BMP-2; and Control site, neither implantation of BMP-2 nor LIPUS treatment was done.At 3 weeks after surgery, thickness of new bone (TNB) was significantly higher in both the BMP and LI-BMP sites than in the Control site (P |
