BMP4, a new prognostic factor for glioma [PDF]
The expression status of bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) in gliomas is still unclear by now. We try to investigate the relationship between BMP4 expression and the biological behavior of gliomas in order to lay a foundation for the management of these tumors.A total of 630 patients with glioma were enrolled in the study from January 2002 to January

Verification of bmp4;wnt5 knockdown.
Left: qPCR to detect expression of bmp4 transcript (normalized to ubiquilin control) to detect knockdown of bmp4 in bmp4 RNAi and bmp4;wnt5 RNAi. Animals were treated with dsRNA for 20 days (9 dsRNA feedings), followed by isolation of RNA, followed by RT-

The prodomain of BMP4 is necessary and sufficient to generate stable BMP4/7 heterodimers with enhanced bioactivity in vivo [PDF]
Significance Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are made as inactive precursor proteins that dimerize and are cleaved to generate a bioactive ligand along with prodomain fragments that lack signaling activity. BMP ligands signal as either homodimers, or as heterodimers that display significantly higher activity in vivo.

Background The detailed molecular mechanism between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and colorectal cancer (CRC) is still uncertain. Bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) dysregulation is implicated in T2DM and CRC, respectively.

Ciliary margin-derived BMP4 does not have a major role in ocular development. [PDF]
Heterozygous Bmp4 mutations in humans and mice cause severe ocular anterior segment dysgenesis (ASD). Abnormalities include pupil displacement, corneal opacity, iridocorneal adhesions, and variable intraocular pressure, as well as some retinal and ...

Agrin Binds BMP2, BMP4 and TGFβ1
The C-terminal 95 kDa fragment of some isoforms of vertebrate agrins is sufficient to induce clustering of acetylcholine receptors but despite two decades of intense agrin research very little is known about the function of the other isoforms and the function of the larger, N-terminal part of agrins that is common to all isoforms.

BMP4 is essential for lens induction in the mouse embryo [PDF]
Vertebrate lens development is a classical model system for studying embryonic tissue interactions. Little is known, however, about the molecules mediating such inductive events. Here, we show thatBmp4, which is expressed strongly in the optic vesicle and weakly in the surrounding mesenchyme and surface ectoderm, has crucial roles during lens induction.

Nephronectin regulates atrioventricular canal differentiation via Bmp4-Has2 signaling in zebrafish [PDF]
The extracellular matrix is crucial for organogenesis. It is a complex and dynamic component that regulates cell behavior by modulating the activity, bioavailability and presentation of growth factors to cell surface receptors.

BMP4 increases the expression of TRPC and basal [Ca2+]i via the p38MAPK and ERK1/2 pathways independent of BMPRII in PASMCs. [PDF]
Multiple abnormalities of bone morphogenetic protein (BMPs) signaling are implicated in the process of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). BMP4 plays an important role during the process of pulmonary arterial remodeling and mutant of the principle ...

Transcriptional regulation of BMP4 synexpression in transgenic Xenopus [PDF]
Synexpression groups are genetic modules composed of genes that share both a complex expression pattern and the biological process in which they function. Here we investigate the regulation of BMP4 synexpression by studying the enhancers of bambi, smad7 and vent2 in Xenopus.
