We have identified methods for accelerating and enhancing bone formation by modulating the arachidonic acid metabolic and signaling pathways. The role of arachidonic acid metabolites in promoting inflammation is well documented. Dr. O’Connor’s research has identified the significant role played by arachidonic acid metabolites in regulating the bone formation process in fracture healing and spinal fusion. His research has shown that manipulation of the arachidonic acid pathway will significantly accelerate and enhance fracture healing and spinal fusion.
