Abstract
In this study, the effect of novel BMP-2-loaded photo-cured hydrogels on in vitro and in vivo osteogenesis were explored. The well-defined HA-heparin hydrogel was prepared by a photopolymerization of aminoethyl methacrylate (AEMA) grafted hyaluronic acid (HA) and AEMA-grafted heparin. Subsequently, the resulting hydrogels contained BMP-2 at different concentrations. First, a series of BMP-2-loaded hydrogels were characterized to determine their...
