Details for messenger / hormone: BMP-3

EndoNet ID: ENH00383

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:

http://endonet.bioinf.med.uni-goettingen.de/hormone/ENH00000

It is also possible to use the search of EndoNet to link to the right detail page. The URL should look like

http://endonet.bioinf.med.uni-goettingen.de/search/ENC00000
If the search pattern is unambigious the user is directed to the corresponding detail page.

Synonyms

  • bone morphogenetic protein 3A
  • bone morphogenetic protein 3
  • BMP-3
  • osteogenin
  • BMP-3A
  • BMP3

General information

  • Inhibitor of osteogenesis, acts by an activin-mediated pathway to oppose BMP-2 actions. Does not prevent BMP-2 binding to its receptors. [1]
  • Negatively regulates bone density. Antagonizes the ability of certain osteogenic BMPs to induce osteoprogenitor differentitation and ossification. [2]
  • Induces cartilage and bone formation.
  • Forms heterodimers with Nodal proteins, resulting in mutual inhibition. [3]
  • GREMLIN and DANTE are secreted antagonists for BMPs and SLITs. [4]
  • Expressed in adult and fetal cartilage. Highly expressed in fracture tissue, particularly in osteoblasts, osteoclasts and chondroblasts. [2]
