    The osteoinductive activity induced by recombinant human BMP-2 (rhBMP-2) blunts proportionately as the recipient ages. In order to compensate for this bluntness administration of fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) has been considered. The aim of this study was to determine whether FGF-2 administration augments osteoinductive activity caused by rhBMP-2 and to evaluate the effect of aging on bone formation induced by coadministration of rhBMP-2 and FGF-2. Sixty-four Wistar strain male rats of 8-week-old (prepubertal) and 16-week-old (postpubertal) received bone defects bilaterally in the parietal bone and the defects were filled by a polylactic acid polyglycolic acid copolymer/gelatin sponge (PGS) impregnated with rhBMP-2 plus 0 ng, 25 ng, and 250 ng FGF-2 (n=10 in each). At 2 weeks after grafting, the new bone volume seemed to be larger in the rhBMP-2+FGF-2 groups than in the rhBMP-2 alone group. At 4 weeks, the new bone formation was linked to the adjacent original bone. In the prepubertal rats, all newly formed bone was similarly calcified. In the postpubertal rats, only the rhBMP-2+25 ng FGF-2 group showed this higher degree of calcification. At 2 weeks, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in the rhBMP-2+25 ng FGF-2 group was significantly (p<0.05) larger than that in the rhBMP-2 group in both prepubertal and postpubertal rats. This result shows that low-dose administration of FGF-2 enhanced the degree of calcification and ALP activity in the rhBMP-2 grafting site especially in the postpubertal rats. Therefore, FGF-2 would be a candidate to compensate for the reduction of osteoinductive activity of rhBMP-2 with aging.
