• Background: Bone morphogenic protein 2 is required for effective healing of fractures in bone. It is necessary for the expression of transcription factors that regulate osteogenesis and differentiation of progenitor cells into mature osteoblasts. Embryologically, BMP2 is important in mesenchymal maturation to fetal valves. The same mechanism of maturation is also utilized by tumor molecular machinery once mesenchymal stem cells are recruited to tumor microenvironments, leading to many recent attempts to generate BMP inhibitors in the treatment of ovarian and colon cancer. The activity of BMP2 is antagonized by the activity of Bambi and Crim1. BMP2 is an interesting target for distinguishing the mechanism by which normal and necessary maturation processes are mutated in tumorigenesis.
• Synonyms: BDA2; BMP2A
• Note: This BMP2 antibody is useful for Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin and Western Blot, where a band is seen ~44 kDa. Prior to immunostaining paraffin tissues, antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0) is recommended.
