Bone morphogenetic protein 4 thermosensitive hydrogel inhibits corneal neovascularization by repairing corneal epithelial apical junctional complexes [PDF]
Corneal neovascularization (CNV) is a heavy attribute of blinding disease changes. Existing medications need numerous infusions and have a limited absorption. Investigating novel drugs with safety, efficacy, and convenience is crucial.

Bone morphogenetic protein 4 is involved in cadmium-associated bone damage. [PDF]
AbstractCadmium (Cd) is a well-characterized bone toxic agent and can induce bone damage via inhibiting osteogenic differentiation. Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)/SMAD signaling pathway can mediate osteogenic differentiation, but the association between Cd and BMP/SMAD signaling pathway is yet to be illuminated.

Bone Morphogenetic Protein 4 Gene Therapy in Mice Inhibits Myeloma Tumor Growth, But Has a Negative Impact on Bone [PDF]
Multiple myeloma is characterized by accumulation of malignant plasma cells in the bone marrow. Most patients suffer from an osteolytic bone disease, caused by increased bone degradation and reduced bone formation.

Interaction between Soluble Type I Receptor for Bone Morphogenetic Protein and Bone Morphogenetic Protein-4 [PDF]
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are multifunctional proteins that comprise the largest subfamily of the transforming growth factor-beta. These proteins bind to types I and II serine/threonine kinase receptors. Ligand-induced heteromeric dimerization of these receptors is the key event in initiation of biological responses. We report here large-scale

Bone Morphogenetic Protein 1 Prodomain Specifically Binds and Regulates Signaling by Bone Morphogenetic Proteins 2 and 4 [PDF]
Highly purified fractions of bone extracts capable of inducing ectopic bone formation have been reported to contain peptides corresponding to the mature active regions of the TGF-beta-like bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) 2-7, and to the prodomain region of the metalloproteinase BMP1.

Bone morphogenetic protein-4 is required for mesoderm formation and patterning in the mouse.
Bone morphogenetic protein-4 (BMP-4) is a member of the TGF-beta superfamily of polypeptide signaling molecules, closely related to BMP-2 and to Drosophila decapentaplegic (DPP).

Is NO the Answer? The Nitric Oxide Pathway Can Support Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2 Mediated Signaling [PDF]
The growth factor bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) plays an important role in bone development and repair. Despite the positive effects of BMP2 in fracture healing, its use is associated with negative side effects and poor cost effectiveness, partly ...
