In vivo studies have shown that bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), transforming growth factor (TGF) beta, insulin-like growth factor (IGF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF), plateletderived growth factor (PDGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are all present during normal healing of fractures. 1-8

Biologic adjuvants for fracture healing
Bone tissue has an exceptional quality to regenerate to native tissue in response to injury. However, the fracture repair process requires mechanical stability or a viable biological microenvironment or both to ensure successful healing to native tissue. An improved understanding of the molecular and cellular events that occur during bone repair and remodeling has led to the development of biol...
متن کاملTHE BEST DURATION OF LOW INTENSITY PULSED ULTRASOUND FOR ACCELERATING FRACTURED-RADIAL BONE REPAIR
We have already shown that low intensity pulsed ultrasonic treatment increases rabbit radial fracture healing. The present experiment was undertaken to find out the best duration for treatment. A complete transverse fracture was made in the right radial bones of21 adult male rabbits by a Stanley knife. The animals were divided into 4 groups: group 1, control groups 2, 3, and 4, experimental...
متن کاملHealing the Bone
Healing of the bone is different with the other part of the body. Fracture healing is actually a bone regeneration with no scar tissues, where as in wound healing, injured tissue is replaced by connective tissue which became a scar, Traditionally fracture healing is divided in to 4 stages: 1) Stage of inflammation; 2) Stage of soft callus; 3) Stage of hard callus and 4) Stage of remodeling. In...
متن کاملPotential Role of Local Estrogen in Enhancement of Fracture Healing: Preclinical Study in Rabbits
Background: Effects of estrogen on bone metabolism and its protective role on prevention of osteoporosis are well documented. However, the efficacy of estrogen treatment on bone healing is not well investigated. The drug can be delivered both systemically or locally to the bone with differences in concentrations and side effects. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of lo...
متن کاملDrugs for bone healing.
INTRODUCTION The biological process of fracture healing is complex with influences that are both patient-dependent and related to the trauma experienced and stability of the fracture. Fracture healing complications negatively affect the patient's quality of life, even more when fractures occur in the elderly osteoporotic patients. AREAS COVERED In the polytherapy for bone regeneration, a high...
