Amelogenin Peptide Extract Increases Differentiation and Angiogenic and Local Factor Production and Inhibits Apoptosis in Human Osteoblasts
Figure 2
Effect of rhAmelogenin and Fraction C on DNA content and osteoblast phenotype of MG63 cells. MG63 cells were grown to confluence and then treated with 0 μg/mL or 0.01 μg/mL–100 μg/mL rhAmelogenin or Fraction C for 24 hours. DNA content (a) and alkaline phosphatase-specific activity (b) were measured in the cell lysate, and osteocalcin (c) and osteoprotegerin (d) measured in the conditioned media. *, versus 0 μg/mL; •, versus 1 μg/mL.
