Bone morphogenetic protein 7 (BMP-7) is a polymorphic ligand protein belonging to the TGFβ family. BMP-7 is involved in regulating the proliferation, invasion and migration of cancer cells and is associated with a variety of human tumors. BMP-7 binds ALK2 or ACVR2A/BMPR2 excitation signal, which is terminated by SMADs regulation. BMP-7 is involved in the BMP-7-SMad1/5/9 signaling pathway, which is associated with the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process. BMP-7 also eliminates vascular inflammation, maintains vascular integrity, reduces vascular calcification, and stimulates in situ phosphate ossification deposition. The total length of human BMP-7 protein is 431 amino acids (M1-H431), with 4 glycosylation domains. BMP-7 Protein, Human has a total length of 139 amino acids (S293-H431), is expressed in E. coli cells.

Description

Bone morphogenetic protein 7 (BMP-7) is a polymorphic ligand protein belonging to the TGFβ family. BMP-7 is involved in regulating the proliferation, invasion and migration of cancer cells and is associated with a variety of human tumors[1]. BMP-7 binds ALK2 or ACVR2A/BMPR2 excitation signal, which is terminated by SMADs regulation[2]. BMP-7 is involved in the BMP-7-SMad1/5/9 signaling pathway, which is associated with the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process[1]. BMP-7 also eliminates vascular inflammation, maintains vascular integrity[3], reduces vascular calcification, and stimulates in situ phosphate ossification deposition[4]. The total length of human BMP-7 protein is 431 amino acids (M1-H431), with 4 glycosylation domains. BMP-7 Protein, Human has a total length of 139 amino acids (S293-H431), is expressed in E. coli cells.

Background

Bone Morphogenetic Protein 7 (BMP-7) is a ligand protein with pleiotropic, belongs to TGFβ family. BMP-7 is involved in regulating the proliferation, invasion and migration of cancer cells, associated with a variety of human tumors[1].
BMP-7 also appears to exhibit anti-inflammatory effects on the vasculature, and may function to maintain vascular integrity[3].
BMP-7 attenuates vascular calcification, but also corrects hyperphosphatemia associated with uremia, and stimulates orthotopic skeletal phosphate deposition while simultaneously preventing vascular calcification by direct action on vascular smooth muscle cells[4].
BMP/TGFβ signaling to involve in vascular and valvular homeostasis, which is a critical process of embryonic development[5].
BMP-7 inhibits primary human aortic smooth muscle cells (SMCs) proliferation due to stimulation with serum, platelet-derived growth factor subunit BB (PDGF-BB) or TGFβ1, and maintains the expression of the vascular SMC phenotype[3].
And BMP/TGFβ signaling can be terminated by inhibitory SMADs including SMAD6 and SMAD7, which are activated and induced by BMP signaling and switch off BMP signaling via multiple mechanisms[2].
However, BMP-7 knockdown results the expression of p-Smad1/5/9 significantly decreased, accompanied with BMP-7-Smad1/5/9 signaling pathway inactive and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process reverse[1].
In lung cancer, BMP-7 inhibits bone metastasis, and induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. In malignant melanoma, BMP-7 can induce mesenchymal-epithelial transformation and inhibit the metastasis of cancer cells. BMP-7 inhibit epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related genes and cell invasion, inhibit telomerase, shorten telomeres, and induce the aging and apoptosis of breast cancer cells. BMP-7 has also been found to increase the cell proliferation and migration potential in a model of metastatic breast cancer in the bone and prostate cancer[1].
BMP-7 is widely found in different animals, while the sequence in mouse is highly similar to rat (100.00%), and human (97.67%).

In Vitro

BMP-7 (300 ng/mL) initiates a synchronous wave of differentiation occurred, characterized by flattened, enlarged cells with reduced proliferation[6].
BMP-7 (50 ng/mL; 1, 3, 5, 7, and 17 d) induces SCG neurons dendritic growth[7].
