Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - BMP4 is a secreted protein that is highly expressed in embryonic and fetal tissues. - It is a transmembrane protein that is localized to the cell surface. - BMP4 is a key regulator of epithelial-mesenchymal transition. - It is involved in the formation of various tissues and organs, including the kidney, skin, and eye. **Pathways and functions:** - BMP4 signaling is involved in cell migration, proliferation, and differentiation. - It promotes epithelial cell migration and invasion. - It inhibits mesenchymal cell migration and proliferation. - It plays a role in the formation of the neural plate border. - It is involved in the specification of primordial germ cells. - It is involved in the specification of the neural plate border. **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in BMP4 genes have been linked to several human diseases, including kidney diseases, skin disorders, and eye disorders. - BMP4 inhibitors are being investigated as potential treatments for these diseases. **Additional notes:** - BMP4 is a highly conserved protein, with a similar sequence in mammals and humans. - It is a key regulator of cell migration and differentiation. - It is a target for therapeutic intervention in a variety of human diseases.
