Osteogenic actions of the osteogenic growth peptide on bovine marrow mesenchymal stromal cells in culture

The results of this study aiming to evaluate the effects of the osteogenic growth peptide (OGP) on the growth and differentiation of bovine marrow mesenchymal stem cells in culture show that OGP promotes osteogenic differentiation of the bovine stem cells. OGP increased alkaline phosphatase activity...

Description
Summary:The results of this study aiming to evaluate the effects of the osteogenic growth peptide (OGP) on the growth and differentiation of bovine marrow mesenchymal stem cells in culture show that OGP promotes osteogenic differentiation of the bovine stem cells. OGP increased alkaline phosphatase activity and mineralized nodule formation, and stimulated osteoblast-specific mRNA expression of Osteocalcin. On the other hand, OGP dose-dependently stimulated the expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthases. These results show for the first time a direct osteogenic effect of OGP on bovine marrow stromal cells in culture.
