Identification of osteogenic progenitor cell-targeted peptides that augment bone formation

Activation of osteogenic cells is essential for bone regeneration. Here, the authors screen a peptide library and identify 2 compounds that promote osteogenic progenitor cell differentiation in vitro, and show that they increase bone formation and fracture repair in mice.
