- Biomaterial functionalization for orthopaedic scaffolds
Mechanism of action
Bone Gla Protein (45-49) sits within the Bone / Cartilage research class (CPC reference OSTP-004). These peptides interact with bone- and cartilage-relevant receptors and matrix proteins — including RANK/RANKL, PTH1R, integrins, and collagen-binding motifs — modulating osteoblast, osteoclast, and chondrocyte activity in cellular and organ-culture models. Investigators typically incorporate Bone Gla Protein (45-49) as a reference standard, tool ligand, or substrate in the assay contexts listed above. Commonly paired with ALP, TRAP, or Alizarin Red staining in cell-based readouts.
Frequently asked questions

Bone Gla Protein (45-49) (CPC catalog code OSTP-004) is a synthetic bone / cartilage biology peptide in the bone / cartilage category. It is provided as a lyophilized ~1 mg vial for in-vitro research use only.
What is Bone Gla Protein (45-49) studied for?
Published and internal research programs use Bone Gla Protein (45-49) as a reference standard in bone / cartilage workflows — for example, osteoblast / osteoclast differentiation assays and chondrocyte and cartilage-explant remodeling studies. Human clinical evidence is not established.
Is Bone Gla Protein (45-49) FDA-approved for human use?
No. Bone Gla Protein (45-49) is a research-grade reference peptide and is not approved by the FDA or any national regulator for human or veterinary therapeutic use. It is offered exclusively for in-vitro laboratory research and does not ship to the United States for consumer use.
How is Bone Gla Protein (45-49) typically used in the lab?
In a bone / cartilage workflow, Bone Gla Protein (45-49) is reconstituted in sterile buffer or DMSO (solubility-dependent) and applied in the researcher's chosen assay format. Commonly paired with ALP, TRAP, or Alizarin Red staining in cell-based readouts.
How should Bone Gla Protein (45-49) be stored?
Store lyophilized at −20 °C. Reconstitute in sterile buffer immediately before use. Follow your institution's standard operating procedures for handling synthetic peptides.
Where does the Bone Gla Protein (45-49) product page point to?
This kindr reference page mirrors CPC Scientific's catalog metadata for OSTP-004. The upstream reference sheet — including sequence, purity, MW, and application notes where published — is linked from the buy panel. All orders placed on kindr Peptides ship internationally under research-use terms only.
What quality specifications apply to Bone Gla Protein (45-49)?
Research-grade peptides in the CPC catalog are synthesized by solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), purified by preparative RP-HPLC, and characterized by analytical HPLC and mass spectrometry. Typical purity is ≥95%; certificate of analysis is available on request.
