miR-4739 mediates pleural fibrosis by targeting bone morphogenetic protein 7. [PDF]
Pleural fibrosis is defined as excessive depositions of matrix components that result in pleural tissue architecture destruction and dysfunction. In severe cases, the progression of pleural fibrosis leads to lung entrapment, resulting in dyspnea and respiratory failure.

Heterodimeric BMP-2/7 antagonizes the inhibition of all-trans retinoic acid and promotes the osteoblastogenesis. [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: Hypervitaminosis A and alcoholism can result in a low mineral density and compromised regenerative capacity of bone, thus delaying implant osteointegration.

Renal Bone Morphogenetic Protein-7 Protects against Diabetic Nephropathy [PDF]
Longstanding diabetes causes renal injury with early dropout of podocytes, albuminuria, glomerular and tubulointerstitial fibrosis, and progressive renal failure. The renal pathology seems to be driven, in part, by TGF-beta and is associated with a loss of renal bone morphogenic protein-7 (BMP-7) expression.

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 ...
