BMP6-100

BMP-6 is a member of the Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMPs) family, which is important for the development of bone and cartilage.

Description
BMP-6 is a member of the Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMPs) family, which is important for the development of bone and cartilage. BMPs belong to the TGF-β superfamily of structurally related signaling proteins. BMP proteins are synthesized as large precursor molecules that are cleaved by proteolytic enzymes. The active form of BMPs can consist of a dimer of two identical proteins or a heterodimer of two related bone morphogenetic proteins. BMPs signal through type I and type II receptor tyrosine kinases and signal through SMAD proteins.
BMP-6 induces the expression of Noggin and is subsequently antagonized by Noggin. BMP-6 induces a wide range of cellular responses. It promotes osteoblast differentiation from mesenchymal stem cells, chondrocyte maturation, Ang II-induced aldosterone production in the adrenal cortex, hormone production and responsiveness in ovarian granulosa cells, iNOS and TNF-alpha production in macrophages, the cell death of B cells, and neurite outgrowth.
