The role of the 3'UTR region in the regulation of the ACVR1/Alk-2 gene expression. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: The ACVR1/Alk-2 gene, encoding a BMP type I receptor, is mutated in Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva, a severe form of heterotopic ossification. Regulation of ACVR1/Alk-2 expression, still poorly understood, is likely to be controlled by

Neofunction of ACVR1 in fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2015
Significance By utilizing patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) and gene-corrected (rescued) FOP-iPSCs, we discovered a novel mechanism in ectopic bone formation: The disease-causing mutation endows ACVR1 with the ability to transmit the signal of an unexpected ligand ...

Variable signaling activity by FOP ACVR1 mutations [PDF]

open access: yesBone, 2018
Most patients with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP), a rare genetic disorder of heterotopic ossification, have the same causative mutation in ACVR1, R206H. However, additional mutations within the ACVR1 BMP type I receptor have been identified in a small number of FOP cases, often in patients with disease of lesser or greater severity than ...

Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva: current concepts from bench to bedside

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2020
Heterotopic ossification (HO) is a disorder characterised by the formation of ectopic bone in soft tissue. Acquired HO typically occurs in response to trauma and is relatively common, yet its aetiology remains poorly understood.

ACVR1: A Novel Therapeutic Target to Treat Anemia in Myelofibrosis

open access: yesCancers, 2023
Activin receptor type I (ACVR1) is a transmembrane kinase receptor belonging to bone morphogenic protein receptors (BMPs). ACVR1 plays an important role in hematopoiesis and anemia via the BMP6/ACVR1/SMAD pathway, which regulates expression of hepcidin, the master regulator of iron homeostasis.

Single-cell omics reveals the role of ACVR1 in odontoblastic differentiation [PDF]

open access: yes口腔疾病防治
Objective To investigate the impact of activin receptor type-1 (ACVR1) on odontoblastic differentiation and dentin formation based on single-cell RNA sequencing. Methods A correlation analysis of ACVR1 with odontogenesis-related transcription factors was

Activin A forms a non-signaling complex with ACVR1 and type II Activin/BMP receptors via its finger 2 tip loop

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Activin A functions in BMP signaling in two ways: it either engages ACVR1B to activate Smad2/3 signaling or binds ACVR1 to form a non-signaling complex (NSC).

Modeling the ACVR1R206H mutation in human skeletal muscle stem cells

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Abnormalities in skeletal muscle repair can lead to poor function and complications such as scarring or heterotopic ossification (HO). Here, we use fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP), a disease of progressive HO caused by ACVR1R206H (Activin ...
