Predictive role of cytokine gene polymorphisms for the development of femoral head osteonecrosis
(2012)
Introduction: Osteonecrosis (ON) is a multifactorial disease that leads to hip destruction. Lately, much focus has been at femoral head preservation with nonsurgical methods. In this study we examined the polymorphisms of ...
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) expression in the femoral heads of patients with avascular necrosis
(2013)
Avascular necrosis (AVN) is a disorder of the bone repair process which usually results in femoral head (FH) destruction. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are the key proteins regulating bone remodelling and healing. ...
Expression profile of osteoprotegerin, RANK and RANKL genes in the femoral head of patients with avascular necrosis
(2014)
Introduction: Femoral head avascular necrosis (AVN) is a recalcitrant disease of the hip that leads to joint destruction. Osteoprotegerin (OPG), Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor kappa-B (RANK) and RANK ligand (RANKL) ...
Smoking affects mRNA expression of bone morphogenetic proteins in human periosteum
(2012)
Periosteum is important for bone homoeostasis through the release of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and their effect on osteoprogenitor cells. Smoking has an adverse effect on fracture healing and bone regeneration. ...
