Induction of Bone Formation in Primates : The Transforming Growth Factor-beta 3

doi:10.1201/b19303

Book

ABSTRACT

The effects of the bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) family on bone formation are well documented, but the transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta ( isoforms are much less studied. The product of 20 years of study, Induction of Bone Formation in Primates: The Transforming Growth Factor- sums up editor Ugo Ripamonti's research into the osteogenic a
