To link to the content of EndoNet use the EndoNet ID that is given on the detail pages in the format ENX0000, where X is a place holder for the type of the component (e. g. R for receptor or C for anatomical structure).
As URL for the linking append this ID to the detail page for this type of component.
For an hormone that would be:

Substructures

    Secreted hormones

    • Hormone: BMP2

      • Transcription of BMP-2, BMP-3, BMP-4, BMP-5, and BMP-7 and receptors of BMPR-IA, BMPR-IB and BMPR-II was detected in ex vivo and cultured corneal epithelium and stroma. [1]

    • Hormone: BMP5

    • Hormone: BMP7

    • Hormone: GDF5

      • GDF-5 was transcribed only in corneal stromal cells (not in corneal epithelium), suggesting that this cytokine may be an important mediator between keratocytes and epithelial cells. [1]
      • GDF-5 inhibited proliferation of corneal epithelial and stromal cells. [1]

    • Hormone: BMP-3

    • Hormone: SDF-1alpha

    • Hormone: SDF-1beta
