Junin virus infection of osteoblasts upregulated the expression of BMP6
Title: Infection of Rat Osteoblasts with Junin Virus Promotes the Expression of Bone Morphogenetic Protein 6, an Osteogenic Differentiation Inducer.
study revealed that only BMP-6 was able to induce bone formation at the used dose and that the addition of IGF-1 contributed to an increase of the mineralization in the implants. Hence, the combination of BMP-6 with IGF-1 might be a better alternative than BMP-2 for orthopedic surgery or bone tissue engineering approaches.
Title: Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) enhances the osteogenic activity of bone morphogenetic protein-6 (BMP-6) in vitro and in vivo, and together have a stronger osteogenic effect than when IGF-1 is combined with BMP-2.
It was found that BMP-6 and osteopontin considerably participate in progressive renal fibrosis through development of myofibroblasts.

This study demonstrates a late role of BMP-6 and BMPR-1a in fracture-induced physeal growth alterations and furthermore, may have discovered the existence of a regulatory "cross-talk" mechanism between the lower limbs.
Title: BMP-6 and BMPR-1a are up-regulated in the growth plate of the fractured tibia.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
