Iranian Journal of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, 2020 Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and wingless (Wnt) signaling molecules and their antagonists, such as sclerostin and noggin, have been identified to have different effects on bone metabolism. This research intended to evaluate the transcript levels of

Modifications of Hyaluronan Influence the Interaction with Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein-4 (hBMP-4) [PDF]
Biomacromolecules, 2009 In this study, we have demonstrated that the modification of hyaluronan (hyaluronic acid; Hya) with sulfate groups led to different binding affinities for recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-4 (rhBMP-4). The high-sulfated sHya2.8 (average degree of sulfation (D.S.) 2.8) exhibited the tightest interaction with rhBMP-4, followed by the low ...

The role of bone morphogenetic protein 4 in inner ear development and function [PDF]
Hearing Research, 2007 Bone Morphogenetic Protein 4 (BMP4) is a member of the TGF-beta superfamily and is known to be important for the normal development of many tissues and organs, including the inner ear. Bmp4 homozygous null mice die as embryos, but Bmp4 heterozygous null (Bmp4(+/-)) mice are viable and some adults exhibit a circling phenotype, suggestive of an inner ear

Anti-inflammatory properties of bone morphogenetic protein 4 in human adipocytes [PDF]
International Journal of Obesity, 2015 Obesity is characterized by increased adipocyte number and size as well as white adipose tissue (WAT) inflammation, which is fundamental for the development of insulin resistance and type-2 diabetes. These processes, regulated by various endocrine, paracrine and autocrine factors, are extensively studied with the hope to interfere and to inhibit weight

Role of bone morphogenetic protein-2/4 in astrocyte activation in neuropathic pain
Molecular Pain, 2019 Background Bone morphogenetic protein-2/4 (BMP2/4) has been recognized as promoters of astrocyte activity. Substantial evidence suggests that BMP2/4 may be elevated and plays a critical role in astrocyte activation upon spinal cord injury.

The risk of tumor with the use of recombinant human bone morphogenetic proteins
Гений oртопедии, 2022 Introduction Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are members of a large family of growth factors known as the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily. BMPs are known for their ability to induce bone formation and successfully used in orthopaedic
