Single nucleotide polymorphism of bone morphogenetic protein 4 gene: A risk factor of non-syndromic cleft lip with or without palate

open access: yesIndian Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2015
Background: The bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signalling pathway is crucial in a number of developmental processes and is critical in the formation of variety of craniofacial elements including cranial neural crest, facial primordium, tooth, lip and ...

IGF2 knockout reduces but does not abolish osteosarcoma growth in vitro and in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
To test whether endogenous IGF2 promotes osteosarcoma growth, IGF2 was knocked out in Saos2 cells via CRISPR‐Cas9. KO cells showed reduced proliferation in vitro, and knockout xenografts in mice reached only ~25% of wild‐type tumor volume. Insulin‐like growth factor 2 (IGF2) is implicated in osteosarcoma, but direct functional evidence of its role is ...

Bone morphogenetic protein‐4 expression in the adult rat brain

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

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]

open access: yesDevelopmental 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

Hybrid Biofabrication of a Hierarchically Organized Periosteum‐Inspired In Vitro Platform

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A hybrid biofabrication strategy integrates melt electrowriting with extrusion‐based 3D bioprinting to create a hierarchically organized periosteum‐inspired in vitro platform. Spatially defined osteogenic, fibrous, and endothelial cell‐containing compartments support long‐term culture, osteogenic maturation, and CD31+ endothelial cell organization ...

Graphene Layers as Functional Biomaterials. From Fabrication and Characterization to Biological Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Graphene layers are fabricated on Cu foil and transferred onto glass substrates to form double‐ and multi‐layer G‐glass. Raman spectroscopy confirms structural integrity, while SEM and fluorescence microscopy reveal favorable adhesion and spreading of L‐929 fibroblast cells.
