The accelerated effect of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 2 delivered by β-tricalcium phosphate on tendon-to-bone repair process in rabbit models

Bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) plays an important role in the tendon-to-bone repair process. However, there is no previous literature on acceleration of the tendon-to-bone repair process by BMP-2 delivered by β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP). The aim of this study was to investigate the accelerated effect of recombinant human BMP-2 (rhBMP-2) delivered by β-TCP on the tendon-to-bone repair process.
