In neonatal rat metatarsal organ culture, a bell-shaped dose-related curve in length of mineralized area, increases in the height of proliferative and hypertrophic zones, in the number of hypertrophic chondrocyte and in the amount of Runx2 mRNA, were revealed after treatment with OGP(10-14). We conclude that OGP(10-14) accelerates bone growth.

More about this publication?
  • Protein & Peptide Letters publishes short papers in all important aspects of protein and peptide research, including structural studies, recombinant expression, function, synthesis, enzymology, immunology, molecular modeling, drug design etc. Manuscripts must have a significant element of novelty, timeliness and urgency that merit rapid publication. Reports of crystallisation, and preliminary structure determinations of biologically important proteins are acceptable. Purely theoretical papers are also acceptable provided they provide new insight into the principles of protein/peptide structure and function.
