Regulation of the Immune System in Health and Disease by Members of the Bone Morphogenetic Protein Family
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are potent signaling molecules initially described as osteopromoting proteins. BMPs represent one of the members of the larger TGFβ family and today are recognized for their important role in numerous processes. Among the wide array of functions recently attributed...
