title: Comparison of bone matrix-derived bone morphogenetic proteins from various animals.
abstract: Bone matrix-derived bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) was extracted from bovine, porcine, rabbit, Sprague-Dawley rat, and Wistar rat bone and purified. The purified fractions all had similar molecular weights and induced new bone in 3 weeks when implanted into muscle pouches of Wistar rats. Bone matrix-derived BMP is believed to consist of subunits and that of different animal origin to contain the same fraction with BMP activity.
