Biochem/physiol Actions

Cellular responses to BMP-6 are mediated by the formation of hetero-oligomeric complexes of type I and type II serine/threonine kinase receptors. Mature human and murine BMP-6 demonstrates 96% homology.

Physical form

Lyophilized from 200 ul 0.2 μm filtered solution in 40% acetonitrile, 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid containing 50ug bovine serum albumin per 1 ug as a carrier protein.

Analysis Note

The biological activity is measured by its ability to induce alkaline phosphatase production by ATDC5 mouse chondrogenic cells.

To identify polymorphisms associated with variability of iron overload severity in HFE-associated hemochromatosis, we performed exome sequencing of DNA from 35 male HFE C282Y homozygotes with either markedly increased iron stores (n = 22; cases) or with normal or mildly increased iron

Bone morphogenetic protein 6 (BMP6) has been identified as crucial regulator of iron homeostasis. However, its further role in liver pathology including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and its advanced form non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is elusive. The aim of this

Hepcidin is the central regulator of systemic iron homeostasis; dysregulation of hepcidin expression causes various iron metabolic disorders, including hereditary hemochromatosis and anemia of inflammation. To identify molecules that modulate hepcidin expression, we developed a bioassay system for hepcidin gene

Overwhelming evidence from leukemia research has shown that the clonal population of neoplastic cells exhibits marked heterogeneity with respect to proliferation and differentiation. There are rare stem cells within the leukemic population that possess extensive proliferation and self-renewal capacity not
