An anti-ACVR1 antibody exacerbates heterotopic ossification by fibro/adipogenic progenitors in fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva mice
2021-07-24
Abstract excerpt
Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is a rare genetic disease characterized by progressive and catastrophic heterotopic ossification (HO) of skeletal muscle and associated soft tissues. FOP is caused by dominantly acting mutations in the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) type I receptor, ACVR1 (also known as ALK2), the most prevalent of which is an arginine to histidine substitution [ACVR1(R206H)] in the gl...
