PDGF inhibits BMP2-induced bone healing.

ABSTRACT: Bone regeneration depends on a pool of bone/cartilage stem/progenitor cells and signaling mechanisms regulating their differentiation. Using in vitro approach, we have shown that PDGF signaling through PDGFRβ inhibits BMP2-induced osteogenesis, and significantly attenuates expression of BMP2 target genes. We evaluated outcomes of treatment with two anabolic agents, PDGF and BMP2 using different bone healing models. Targeted deletion of PDGFRβ in αSMA osteoprogenitors, led to increased callus bone mass, resulting in improved biomechanical properties of fractures. In critical size bone defects BMP2 treatment increased proportion of osteoprogenitors, while the combined treatment of PDGF BB with BMP2 decreased progenitor number at the injury site. BMP2 treatment induced significant bone format
