Bone morphogenetic proteins, genetics and the pathophysiology of primary pulmonary hypertension.

Respiratory research - 1 Jan 2001

De Caestecker M, Meyrick B

Abstract excerpt

Several recent papers have shown that both familial primary pulmonary hypertension (FPPH) and sporadic primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH) may have a common etiology that is associated with the inheritance and/or spontaneous development of germline mutations in the bone morphogenetic protein receptor (BMPR) type II gene. Because BMPR-II is a ubiquitously expressed receptor for a family of secreted growth factors...
