An evolutionarily conserved enhancer regulates Bmp4 expression in developing incisor and limb bud.

PLoS ONE, 2012
To elucidate the transcriptional regulation of Bmp4 expression during organogenesis, we used phylogenetic footprinting and transgenic reporter analyses to identify Bmp4 cis-regulatory modules (CRMs). These analyses identified a regulatory region located ∼

Advances in the genetics of refractive errors: Contributions from the CREAM consortium

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract The Consortium for Refractive Error and Myopia (CREAM) was established in 2011, bringing together an international team of researchers studying more than 30 cohorts. Since its establishment, CREAM has played a pivotal role in research investigating the genetics of myopia and other refractive errors, serving as a key driver of progress in the ...

BMP4 substitutes for loss of BMP7 during kidney development

Developmental Biology, 2005
Functional inactivation of divergent bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) causes discrete disturbances during mouse development. BMP4-deficient embryos display mesodermal patterning defects at early post-implantation stages, whereas loss of BMP7 selectively disrupts kidney and eye morphogenesis.

Axial length, myopia progression, and myopic maculopathy in Stickler syndrome

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose We lack knowledge on the potentially progressive nature of and the prevalence of complications to myopia as a characteristic trait of Stickler syndrome. Methods This cross‐sectional study combines ophthalmic examination and medical record data on Danish patients with genetically confirmed Stickler syndrome type 1 (COL2A1) and type 2 ...

The effect of BMP4 on mouse embryonic stem cell proliferation and differentiation into primordial germ cells [PDF]

مجله علمی دانشگاه علوم پزشکی کردستان, 2019
Background and Aim: Artificial gamete production from stem cells is a novel strategy for treatment of infertility. Among various stem cell sources, embryonic stem cells (ESC) can be considered as an appropriate source for in vitro formation of germ cells.

BMP4 is a novel paracrine inhibitor of liver regeneration

American Journal of Physiology-Gastrointestinal and Liver Physiology, 2012
Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β family members exert strong effects on restoration of liver mass after injury. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are members of the TGF-β family and are found in the liver, suggesting that these proteins may play a role in liver regeneration. We examined BMP signaling in the liver during hepatectomy.

Microglial reactivity and nodule formation are associated with Synaptodendritic damage in the brains of people with HIV‐1

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Despite effective ART, neurocognitive impairment persists in people with HIV. Brains from PWH present exacerbated microgliosis and formation of microglial nodules that are actively engaged in neuronal phagocytosis, resulting in neuronal injury and dendritic loss.

Designing signaling environments to steer transcriptional diversity in neural progenitor cell populations [PDF]

, 2019
Stem cell populations within developing embryos are diverse, composed of many different subpopulations of cells with varying developmental potential. The structure of stem cell populations in cell culture remains poorly understood and presents a barrier ...

BOLL‐Containing Aggregates Mediate the Translational Regulation During Human Oogenesis

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
This work elucidates that BOLL‐containing aggregate‐mediated translational control is essential for human oogenesis. These aggregates recruit PABPC1 and FXR1 to activate the translation of U‐rich mRNAs encoding cell cycle proteins, thereby ensuring successful meiotic progression.

Downregulation of MLL1 Promotes Intestinal Epithelial Barrier Repair Through Gata4/Bmp4 Activation to Ameliorate Crohn's Disease‐Like Colitis in Mice

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
This study elucidates the pivotal regulatory role and mechanism of MLL1 in inflammatory bowel disease. Experimental data demonstrated elevated MLL1 expression levels in TNBS‐induced murine colitis models, with pharmacological inhibition of MLL1 significantly promoting recovery from CD‐like colitis by accelerating intestinal barrier restoration ...
