    Abstract: A bone regeneration material has a cotton-wool like structure formed of a plurality of electrospun fibers that contain bound BMP-2 through β-TCP binding peptide. The electrospun biodegradable fiber contains 25-65 vol % of β-TCP particles distributed in the fiber such that a portion of the β-TCP particles is exposed on a surface of the electrospun fiber and the remaining portion of the β-TCP particles is buried in the fiber. β-TCP binding peptides that are fused with BMP-2 are bound to the β-TCP particles so that BMP-2 is tethered to β-TCP particles on the surface of the fibers. Upon implantation of the bone regeneration material in a bone defect site of a human body, BMP-2 that are tethered to β-TCP particles on the surface of the bone regeneration material promotes proliferation and differentiation of cells at the bone defect site.

    Abstract: A method of producing an osteoinductive bone graft formed of a plurality of electrospun biodegradable fibers is disclosed. The method includes preparing a fibrous scaffold material formed of the plurality of electrospun biodegradable fibers, wherein the plurality of electrospun biodegradable fibers are entangled with each other to form a cotton-wool like structure having inter-fiber spaces forming a microenvironment for cell growth therein, and immersing the fibrous scaffold in a solution containing BMP-2 so that the BMP-2 is bound to the calcium particles exposed on the surface of the fibers. Area of binding site for BMP-2 on calcium particles exposed on a surface of the electrospun biodegradable fibers is adjusted by an amount of the calcium particles contained in the electrospun biodegradable fibers.
