While it has been previously observed that fibroblast-derived matrices amplify the osteogenic differentiation of MSC, and this effect can be attributed to collagen type I 24,27,28,29 , at this time, we can only speculate about a potential dual role for the effect of a collagen type I matrix on osteogenesis, promoting the differentiation at moderate levels as those observed in a control matrix, while inhibiting under LOX/BMP1 supplementation
