Abstract: The present invention relates to a peptide having bone tissue regeneration capacity and binding to a surface of apatite. More particularly, a peptide is provided having bone tissue regeneration capacity and specifically binding to a surface of apatite mineral, capable of being stably immobilized to the surface of apatite mineral to retain effective activity and exhibit bone regeneration effects for a long time, by linking an amino acid sequence having bone tissue regeneration capacity and an amino acid sequence having apatite-binding capacity to each other to thereby provide a peptide having both bone-forming effects and binding capacity to the surface of apatite mineral. A composition for bone tissue regeneration containing the peptide is further provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preparing a bone graft substitute using bovine bone, and more particularly to a method for preparing a safe bone graft substitute which does not have the risk of infection with bovine spongiform encephalopathy, the method comprising treating bovine bone with sodium hypochlorite and treating the treated bone at a high temperature of more than 600° C. The bone graft substitute does not cause an immune response, because it is prepared by effectively removing lipids and organic substances from bovine bone having a structure very similar to that of the human bone. Also, it has excellent osteoconductivity, and is free of prion, and thus it does not have the risk of infection with bovine spongiform encephalopathy. According to the disclosed invention, the bone graft substitute having such advantages can be prepared in a simple manner.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a bone graft material and a scaffold for tissue engineering applications, which have an osteogenesis-promoting peptide immobilized on the surface. More particularly, the invention relates to a bone graft material and a scaffold for tissue engineering applications, which have a cell adhesion-inducing peptide and/or tissue growth factor-derived peptide immobilized on the surface. By the osteogenesis-promoting peptide immobilized on the surface, the inventive bone graft material and scaffold for tissue engineering applications can promote the transition, proliferation and differentiation of cells associated with regeneration, and eventually maximize the regeneration of tissue. Moreover, the peptide immobilized on the surface has low molecular weight, indicating a reduced risk of immune responses upon its application in the body, and can be present in a stable form within the body, thus showing lasting effects.
