Core Tip
Core Tip: Melatonin is believed to be an important endogenous biological factor for bone remodeling. Furthermore, growth factors such as bone morphogenetic proteins (rhBMPs) have been used to repair bone defects. The aim of this study was to assess the expression of cytokine genes (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10 and TNF-α), markers of osteoclastogenesis (RANK, RANKL and OPG) and MMPs (MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-8 and MMP-13) from the treatment of melatonin associated with an osteogenic membrane and rhBMP-2 on the recovery of a bone injury.
