Bone Morphogenetic Protein Signals Are Required for Cartilage Formation and Differently Regulate Joint Development During Skeletogenesis
1 May 2002
Abstract excerpt
The bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) family consists of a large number of members and has diverse biological activities during development. Various tissues express pleural BMP family members, which seem to cooperatively regulate developmental events. Here, multiple BMP signals were inactivated in chondrocytes to clarify the function of BMPs during skeletogenesis. To obtain tissue-specific inactivation, Noggin...
