Long bone structure and strength depend on BMP2 from osteoblasts and osteocytes, but not vascular endothelial cells.

The importance of bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) in the skeleton is well known. BMP2 is expressed in a variety of tissues during development, growth and healing. In this study we sought to better identify the role of tissue-specific BMP2 during post-natal growth and to determine if BMP2 knockou...
