Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A cyclized peptide designated BMP Binding Peptide (BBP) is a synthetic peptide that avidly binds rhBMP-2, as do endogenous forms of BBP, and sequence conservation between species results in a variety of useful BBP compositions. BBP increases the over-all osteogenic activity of rhBMP-2, increases the rate at which rhBMP-2 induces bone formation, and BBP induces calcification alone. Compositions and substrates including BBP, and methods of using BBP are useful in therapeutic, diagnostic and clinical applications requiring calcification and osteogenesis.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A method of inducing osteogenesis or calcification in vertebrate tissue comprising administering to the tissue chondrogenic or osteogenic precursor cells and a peptide having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO. 13, or a fragment thereof, wherein said peptide or fragment increases the degree or rate of osteogenesis or calcification. 2. The method of claim 1 wherein the chondrogenic or osteogenic precursor cells are administered to the tissue at a…
