High impact information on BMP7

 

Biological context of BMP7

 

Anatomical context of BMP7

  • PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the regulation of photoreceptor differentiation and outer segment elongation by the growth factor BMP7 [10].
  • BMP7 did not appear to affect the survival, proliferation, or differentiation of progenitors or the fate of photoreceptors or amacrine cells in vitro [10].
  • In addition, precocious expression of Bmp7 in the metatarsal epidermis of the Silkie mutant or treatment of the metatarsus with ectopic BMP7 protein results in feather development from scale forming integument [11].
  • Two members of the BMP superfamily, BMP4 and BMP7, which may regulate neural crest development, are highly expressed by cells at the site of iris smooth muscle generation [12].
  • Constructs were transiently transfected into sternal chondrocytes cultured under SF conditions in the presence or absence of 30 ng/ml BMP-2, BMP-4, or BMP-7 [13].
 

Associations of BMP7 with chemical compounds

  • This report demonstrates that the function of BMP-7 in the oviduct involves the induction of apoptosis and that estrogen plays an important role in opposing this function [1].
 

Other interactions of BMP7

  • During the early developmental stages, BMP-2 and BMP-7 are expressed in the posterior distal mesenchyme leaving a less prominent expression anteriorly [14].
  • Our results indicate that the ADMP pathway causes the restriction of anterior and axial fates and that ADMP, BMP2b, and BMP7 pathways have distinct actions but cooperate in establishing proper dorso-ventral regionalization [15].
  • Finally, BMP-7 stimulated G cell proliferation, but BMP-4 inhibited TGF-alpha+ IGF-I- and/or FSH-stimulated G cell proliferation, suggesting a role in the control of follicular growth during development [16].
