Bone morphogenetic proteins and their receptors: Potential functions in the brain
15 Jan 1998
Abstract excerpt
Transforming growth factors-beta (TGF-betas), activins, and bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) comprise an evolutionarily well-conserved group of proteins controlling a number of cell differentiation, cell growth, and morphogentic processes during development.
