Description | Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) belong to the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) superfamily. BMPs play a key role in embryonic development, especially during heart, neural and cartilage development. Around 20 BMP family members have been identified and characterized. BMPs signal through serine/threonine kinase receptors, and are composed of type I and II subtypes. Four type I receptors have been identified: type IA and IB BMP receptors, type IA activin receptor, and activin receptor-like kinase I. Three type II receptors have also been recognized: type II BMP receptor and type II and IIB activin receptors. BMP-7, originally identified by its properties to induce bone formation, has been identified as an anti-fibrotic molecule, antagonizing TGF-β1. Fibrosis is associated with the emergence of fibroblasts derived from endothelial cells, suggesting an endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndMT). TGF-β1 induces endothelial cells to undergo EndMT, whereas bone BMP-7 preserved the endothelial phenotype. BMP-7 inhibits fibrosis in the kidney, lung, liver, heart, peritonium, oral submucosa tissue, and colonic wall. |
