Bone regeneration depends on a pool of bone/cartilage stem/progenitor cells and signaling mechanisms regulating their differentiation. Using in vitro approach, we have shown that PDGF signaling through PDGFRβ inhibits BMP2-induced osteogenesis, and significantly attenuates expression of BMP2 target genes. We evaluated outcomes of treatment with two anabolic agents, PDGF and BMP2 using different bone healing models. Targeted deletion of PDGFRβ in αSMA osteoprogenitors, led to increased callus bon ...[more]
