vivo. We dem<strong>on</strong>strated that OIC-A006, at different c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s, especially at optimal c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong> of 6.25 µΜ,<br />

could stimulate BMSCs to express Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), Core-binding factor a1 (Cbfa1), Osteop<strong>on</strong>tin (OPN)<br />

and Osteocalcin (OC), and to form calcified nodules in vitro. Under the b<strong>on</strong>e tissue culture c<strong>on</strong>diti<strong>on</strong>s, OIC-A006<br />

also stimulated new b<strong>on</strong>e formati<strong>on</strong> of murine calvarial and metatarsal b<strong>on</strong>e, indicating that OIC-A006 may exert<br />

positive effects <strong>on</strong> osteogenesis. Furthermore, to elucidate the in vivo osteogenic potential of OIC-A006, we<br />

Transplanted OIC-A006-Loaded true b<strong>on</strong>e ceramic (OIC-A006/TBC) into rabbit critical-sized segmental radial<br />

defect. The results revealed OIC-A006/TBC accelerated b<strong>on</strong>e repair significantly, compared with TBC al<strong>on</strong>e. These<br />

showed that OIC-A006, has the potential to promote osteogenesis in vitro and in vivo. This new compound may<br />

provide a new alterative agent for growth factors to promote b<strong>on</strong>e healing and b<strong>on</strong>e regenerati<strong>on</strong>.<br />
