| bone Gla protein | <protein> Polypeptide of 50 residues formed from a 76-77 amino acid precursor and found in the extracellular matrix of bone. Binds hydroxyapatite. Has limited homology of its leader sequence with that of other Vitamin K dependent proteins such as prothrombin, Factors IX and X and Protein C. (18 Nov 1997) |

| bone graft | Bone transplanted from a donor site to a recipient site. See: osteoplasty. (05 Mar 2000) |

| bone island | <radiology> Small, intramedullary island of compact bone, usually negative on bone scan, shaggy, slightly stellate border, Differential diagnosis: osteoid osteoma, multiple leading to osteopoikilosis (12 Dec 1998) |
| bone lengthening | Increase in the longest dimension of a bone to correct anatomical deficiencies, congenital, traumatic, or as a result of disease. The lengthening is not restricted to long bones. The usual surgical methods are internal fixation and distraction. (12 Dec 1998) |

| bone morphogenetic protein | <protein> Activity derived from bone that induces the formation of cartilage and bone in vivo. Seven bone morphogenetic proteins have been described, BMP 1 being the only one not in the TGF beta superfamily. BMP 3 was formerly called osteogenin. Acronym: BMP (18 Nov 1997) |
| bone morphogenetic proteins | Non-collagenous factors, believed to be proteins, that occur in demineralised bone and stimulate osteogenesis. They can induce new bone formation in ectopic sites and thus have potential use in bone repair. (12 Dec 1998) |

| bone marrow |
The body's `factory' for three types of blood cells: leukocytes (white blood cells) which help fight infection; erythrocytes (red blood cells) which carry oxygen throughout the body; and thrombocytes (platelets) which cause blood clotting.
