Regulation of proliferation and osteochondrogenic differentiation of periosteum-derived cells by transforming growth factor-beta and basic fibroblast growth factor.

Abstract
We studied the effects of transforming growth factor-beta and basic fibroblast growth factor on the regulation of proliferation and osteochondrogenic differentiation of periosteum-derived cells, which have the potential to differentiate into bone and hypertrophic cartilage in vitro. Histolog
