Bmp signaling in pulmonary vascular homeostasis and disease
Bone morphogenetic protein (Bmp) signaling is critical for vascular development and homeostasis. Defects in this pathway lead to multiple vascular diseases, including Heritable Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (HPAH), which is genetically linked to mutations in Bone Morphogenetic Protein Receptor Typ...
