Abstract: 【Abstract】〓Articular cartilage injury is a common disease, which can cause the formation of osteoarthritis that makes people’s lives terrible. Articular cartilage has a limited capacity for spontaneous repair, due to its avascular nature and absence of progenitor cells and the effective method to repair damaged articular cartilage has not yet been established. At present, the research of the growth factor to promote the repair and restoration of articular cartilage are becoming more and more popular and BMP is the special factor that can induce bone formation, thus it has obvious effect for the repair of articular cartilage. But It is still in the research stage and a lot of problems still remained unsolved be solved. So it is very necessary to review the repair of articular cartilage defect with bone morphogenetic protein.
