Abstract excerpt
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are members of a class of ancient, highly conserved signalling molecules that play major roles in embryonic axis determination, organ development, tissue repair, and regeneration throughout the animal kingdom. The bone morphogenetic proteins are potent developmental morphogens that act in a concentration-dependent manner to specify cell fates in developing and regenerating...
