Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are vital for human development and health. This review explores diseases linked to BMP signaling, current modulation strategies, and future therapeutic directions.

Area of Science:

  • Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
  • Developmental Biology
  • Cell Signaling

Background:

  • Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are key ligands in the transforming growth factor (TGF)-β superfamily.
  • BMP signaling, primarily through Smad1, 5, and 8, is essential for development and homeostasis.
  • Dysregulation of BMP pathways is linked to various human diseases.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review diseases associated with dysregulated BMP signal transduction.
  • To outline current strategies for modulating BMP pathways.
  • To highlight novel technologies and future research directions in BMP signaling.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of scientific publications on BMP signaling.
  • Analysis of current therapeutic strategies and emerging technologies.
