Bone tissue engineering: recent advances and promising therapeutic agents.
Bone regeneration can be accomplished with growth factors, cells and delivery systems. This review is a summary of these components that may be used for tissue regeneration. Support for the potential therapeutic applications of transcription factors in bone tissue engineering will also be discussed.
