New association of bone morphogenetic protein 4 concentrations with fat distribution in obesity and Exenatide intervention on it

Lipids in Health and Disease, 2017
Background Bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP-4) has been proven to regulate white adipogensis. We aimed to demonstrate the correlation of BMP-4 with fat distribution and Exenatide treatment on it. Methods We enrolled 69 obese patients. Anthropometric and

Canonical Bone Morphogenetic Protein Signaling Regulates Expression of Aquaporin-4 and Its Anchoring Complex in Mouse Astrocytes

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is the predominant water channel in the brain; it is enriched in astrocytic foot processes abutting vessels where it is anchored through an interaction with the dystrophin-associated protein (DAP) complex.

Bone morphogenetic proteins: Signaling periodontal bone regeneration and repair

Journal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences, 2016
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are a group of growth factors also known as cytokines and as metabologens. Originally discovered by their ability to induce the formation of bone and cartilage, BMPs are now considered to constitute a group of pivotal ...

Glypicans Dally and Dally-like control injury-induced allodynia in

Molecular Pain, 2019
Over 100 million people are challenged by the effects of chronic pain in the United States alone. This burden also impacts the U.S. economy; 600 billion dollars annually is spent on medical care, medications, and lost productivity in the workplace ...

Investigation of the Role of BMP2 and -4 in ASD, VSD and Complex Congenital Heart Disease

Diagnostics, 2023
Congenital heart malformations (CHMs) make up between 2 and 3% of annual human births. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) signalling is required for chamber myocardium development.

High-Density Lipoproteins from Coronary Artery Disease and Aortic Valve Stenosis Patients Differentially Regulate Gene Expression in a Model of Cardiac Adipocytes

Cells
Previous reports have described a statistical association between high-density lipoproteins (HDL) subclasses and the expression of genes coding for pro-calcifying proteins in the epicardial adipose tissue of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD ...

Cloning of rat type I receptor cDNA for bone morphogenetic protein‐2 and bone morphogenetic protein‐4, and the localization compared with that of the ligands [PDF]

Developmental Dynamics, 1996
A rat homologue cDNA of mouse (Koenig et al. [1994] Mol. Cell Biol. 14:5961-5974; Suzuki et al. [1994] Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 91: 10255-10259) and human (ten Dijke et al. [1994] J. Biol. Chem. 269:16985-16988) type I receptors for BMP-2 and BMP-4 was cloned. Tissue distribution of the receptor mRNA was studied by in situ hybridization using rats at

Bone morphogenetic protein‐4 expression in the adult rat brain

Journal of Comparative Neurology, 2006
AbstractBone morphogenetic protein‐4 (BMP4) is a member of the transforming growth factor‐β (TGF‐β) superfamily and plays important roles in multiple biological events. Although BMP4 expression has been well described in the early development of the central nervous system (CNS), little information is available on its expression in the adult CNS ...
