Abstract:
Basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF) is one of the most important factors for wounds healing. BFGF promotes healing of bone fracture by regulating cell proliferation and differentiation of bone tissues, increasing local bone density, and accelerating local angiogenesis. With the progression of bFGF research, more and more attention will be paid to bone repair function of bFGF in bone tissue engineering.
