Multiplicity of BMP Signaling in Skeletal Development
1 Nov 2007
Abstract excerpt
Skeletal development and homeostasis are complex processes involving systemic regulatory factors and local factors present in the bone microenvironment. Among these factors, bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) represent the major potent bone morphogens, which coordinate with other factors to exert their multiple functions by regulating cell condensation, as well as inducing chondrogenesis and osteogenesis.
