BackgroundBackgroundBone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are molecules in the Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are molecules in the TGF-TGF-ββ superfamily that were discovered based on their superfamily that were discovered based on their osteoinductive activity by Marshall Urist in 1965osteoinductive activity by Marshall Urist in 1965
rhBMP-2 and -7 are FDA-approved for limited orthopedic rhBMP-2 and -7 are FDA-approved for limited orthopedic indications (in absence of malignancy) based on phase III indications (in absence of malignancy) based on phase III multicenter randomized clinical trials multicenter randomized clinical trials
Surgical ablation of oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCCA) Surgical ablation of oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCCA) often results in a segmental bone defect requiring often results in a segmental bone defect requiring reconstruction. Current methods of bone reconstruction are reconstruction. Current methods of bone reconstruction are centered around free tissue transfer, but limitations still existcentered around free tissue transfer, but limitations still exist
Tissue engineering approaches using BMP protein or gene Tissue engineering approaches using BMP protein or gene therapy in the head and neck region would be quite therapy in the head and neck region would be quite appealing, but the effects of BMPs on SCCA are unknown.appealing, but the effects of BMPs on SCCA are unknown.

I didn’t include a slide here because, while the I didn’t include a slide here because, while the data shows what we want, it is scant and data shows what we want, it is scant and requires a bit of explaining with regards to why requires a bit of explaining with regards to why there is baseline expression of BMP 7 in there is baseline expression of BMP 7 in untreated cells that don’t express BMP on PCR.untreated cells that don’t express BMP on PCR.I also have evidence (also low numbers) uptace I also have evidence (also low numbers) uptace of lacZ in 74A and no uptake od lacZ in 14A.of lacZ in 74A and no uptake od lacZ in 14A.My plan was to mention briefly that we have My plan was to mention briefly that we have shown uptake and expression in 74A and we shown uptake and expression in 74A and we have shown no uptake and even cell death with have shown no uptake and even cell death with exposure to the adenovirus.exposure to the adenovirus.
