Solubilization and renaturation of biologically active human bone morphogenetic protein-4 from inclusion bodies

open access: yesBiotechnology Reports, 2018
Biologically active human bone morphogenetic protein-4 (hBMP-4) was successfully produced in a prokaryotic host. For this aim, hBMP-4 cDNA was cloned in Escherichia coli (E. coli) and the protein was produced in a non-active aggregated form.

Instrumented Lumbar Corpectomy and Spinal Reconstruction Comparing rhBMP-2/Compression-Resistant Matrix, rhBMP-2/Absorbable Collagen Sponge/Ceramic Granules Mixture, and Autograft in Two Different Devices: A Study in Sheep [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Study Design. Fusion success with rhBMP-2 and autograft in titanium or PEEK corpectomy devices was evaluated in a sheep lumbar corpectomy model. The 6 treatment groups included titanium mesh or PEEK corpectomy devices filled with rhBMP-2 on a compression-

Role of noncoding RNA in vascular remodelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Purpose of review: Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), such as microRNAs (miRNAs) and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are becoming fundamentally important in the pathophysiology relating to injury-induced vascular remodelling.

The Osteoblastic Microenvironment Determines the Fate of Breast Cancer Cells Disseminated in the Bone Marrow

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study revealed how the osteoblastic microenvironment determines the fate of cancer cells disseminated in bone, with a focus on whether they colonize, reside in quiescence, or reactivate from dormancy. Targeting integrin signaling may offer promising strategies for preventing quiescent cancer cells reactivation and bone colonization.

Smad1 and Smad4 Are Components of the Bone Morphogenetic Protein-4 (BMP-4)-induced Transcription Complex of the Xvent-2B Promoter*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2000
To study the mechanism of transcriptional activation of the Xenopus homeobox geneXvent-2B, we have delineated the bone morphogenetic protein-4 (BMP-4)-responsive region between −275/−152 in the proximal promoter.

Role of Bone morphogenetic protein 4 in zebrafish semicircular canal development [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopment, Growth & Differentiation, 2007
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are known to play roles in inner ear development of higher vertebrates. In zebrafish, there are several reports showing that members of the BMP family are expressed in the otic vesicle. We have isolated a novel zebrafish mutant gallery, which affects the development of the semicircular canal.

Cancer‐Associated Fibroblasts Functions as Multifunctional Architects of the Tumor Stroma and Represent Emerging Therapeutic Vulnerabilities

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are the predominant stromal components within the tumor microenvironment (TME), playing multifaceted roles in cancer progression through dynamic interactions with neoplastic and immune cells. Emerging evidence has revealed remarkable heterogeneity and plasticity of CAFs, which originate from diverse ...

Promoting Treg Polarization‐Mediated Anti‐Scar and Appendage Regeneration in Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops a PLGA@LA‐BMP4‐PG bilayer scaffold to address scar formation and appendage loss in skin repair. The piezoelectric PLA layer enhances cell migration via electric fields, while GelMA delivers LA promoting Tregs polarization and BMP4 inhibiting FBs differentiation.
