DDR2 increases BMP-dependent bone regeneration and reduces heterotopic ossification

DDR2 increases BMP-dependent bone regeneration and reduces heterotopic ossification

Research into bone regeneration has taken a significant step forward with the discovery of a key mechanism that could transform treatments for bone diseases. Scientists have identified how discoidin domain receptor 2 (DDR2) enhances bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-dependent bone regeneration while reducing the risk of heterotopic ossification (HO), offering promising therapeutic opportunities. This breakthrough sheds […]
