BMPR1A promotes ID2–ZEB1 interaction to suppress excessive endothelial to mesenchymal transition

Abstract excerpt

AIMS: Components of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signalling have been implicated in both pathogenesis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndoMT). In particular, the importance of BMP type 2 receptor in these processes has been extensively analysed. However, the contribution of BMP type 1 receptors (BMPR1s) to the onset of PAH and EndoMT remains poorly understood....
