Sustained delivery of the bone morphogenetic proteins BMP-2 and BMP-7 for cartilage repair and regeneration in osteoarthritis

This study showed that the sustained release of GF from PODS BMPs is effective in promoting chondrogenesis <i>in vitro</i>. The small animal data suggests that this novel approach of delivering therapeutic proteins sustainably and locally to the knee has promise for developing future disease-modifying therapies of OA.
