BMP6-Engineered MSCs Induce Vertebral Bone Repair in a Pig Model: A Pilot Study

Figure 4

Quantification of bone regeneration in lumbar vertebral defects. Bone volume (BV) and connectivity density (Conn-Dense) parameters were higher in lumbar defects treated with BMP6-MSCs compared to defects treated with fibrin gel only. Statistical significance difference was not reached, probably due to the small sample size (bars indicate SE, ).
