August 2009 in “American Journal Of Pathology” Noggin promotes skin tumors by activating certain cell signaling pathways.
December 2009 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” This study found that in keratin 14-targeted transgenic mice, BMP antagonism via noggin led to the development of hair follicle tumors, mediated through alterations in Wnt and Shh signaling pathways.
