    GlossaryBone Morphogenetic Protein 7 (BMP7)

    promotes bone and cartilage development and repair

    Bone Morphogenetic Protein 7 (BMP7), also known as Osteogenic Protein 1 (OP-1), is a protein that plays a crucial role in the development of bone and cartilage. It is part of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) superfamily and is involved in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation, and repair, making it important for both developmental biology and potential therapeutic applications in conditions like bone fractures and osteoarthritis.
