Sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus intermedius) polysaccharide enhanced BMP-2 induced osteogenic differentiation and its structural analysis
A new sea urchin polysaccharide (SUP) was extracted from the gonad of sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus intermedius), and its bioactivity to synergistically enhance the functionality of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) induced osteoblastic differentiation was characterized. Results showed that the...
