Genotypes and Phenotypes of Patients With TSPEAR‐Related Disorder: Evidence of a Predominant Dental Phenotype

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT TSPEAR (chr. 21q22.3) encodes a protein involved in tooth development and is predominantly expressed in the enamel knot. Biallelic loss of function variants in TSPEAR cause ectodermal dysplasia, tooth agenesis and sensorineural hearing loss. However, the role of TSPEAR in auditory processes is unclear.

Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 (BMP-2) and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Transfection to Human Periosteal Cells Enhances Osteoblast Differentiation and Bone Formation

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008
Periosteum has been demonstrated to contain mesenchymal progenitor cells differentiating to osteoblasts, and both bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) may play important roles in cell-based approaches to bone

An elastic segment of the whisker shaft enables coding of the whisking phase via whisker torsion in rats and mice

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
An elastic segment was found in the basal part of the whisker shaft in rats and mice. Application of force to the whisker bulb of isolated follicles caused bending and twisting of this segment. Active whisker movements deform this segment, causing whisker shaft deflection and selective activation of mechanoreceptors at different phases of whisking ...

Evaluation of IHH, PTCH1, and SMO protein immunohistochemistry in the human mandibular condyle at fetal stages from 30 to 80 mm greatest length

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluated the morphogenesis of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) in human fetuses during the third month of gestation through the analysis of immunohistochemistry for the proteins Indian Hedgehog (IHH), Patched‐1 (PTCH1), and Smoothened (SMO).

A new biocompatible delivery scaffold containing heparin and bone morphogenetic protein 2

Acta Pharmaceutica, 2016
Silicon-substituted calcium phosphate (Si-CaP) was developed in our laboratory as a biomaterial for delivery in bone tissue engineering. It was fabricated as a 3D-construct of scaffolds using chitosan-trisodium polyphosphate (TPP) cross-linked networks ...

Serum Proteomic Signatures of RA Risk and Response: Analysis of the APIPPRA Trial

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective To identify serum protein signatures associated with progression to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and response to abatacept in at‐risk individuals. Methods A total of 440 serum samples from 118 APIPPRA study participants were selected from baseline to RA onset for 46 RA progressors or to study end for 72 participants who did not develop RA ...

Blocking c‐Met signaling enhances bone morphogenetic protein‐2‐induced osteoblast differentiation

FEBS Open Bio, 2015
We previously demonstrated that blocking hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) receptor/c‐Met signaling inhibited arthritis and articular bone destruction in mouse models of rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Effects of Renal and Hepatic Impairment on the Pharmacokinetics of Zilurgisertib

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Small‐molecule activin receptor‐like kinase‐2 inhibitor zilurgisertib (INCB000928) is under investigation in a pivotal trial for the treatment of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP), an ultrarare genetic condition. This analysis assessed effects of renal and hepatic impairment on zilurgisertib pharmacokinetics.

Role for TGF-beta superfamily signaling in telencephalic GABAergic neuron development. [PDF]

, 2010
Signaling mechanisms mediated by the Transforming Growth Factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily regulate a variety of developmental processes. Here we show that components of both bone morphogenetic protein/growth differentiation factor and TGF-beta/activin ...
