Silk nanoparticles for delivery of human BMP-2 in bone regenerative medicine applications

[Excerpt] A tissue engineering approach combines the use of scaffold biomaterials, stem cells and growth factors. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are growth factors that have sparked a great interest in tissue engineering due to their strong ability to promote new bone formation. Herein, we repor...
