Descriptions:Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) is a kind of bone growth regulator, belonging to protein transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β) superfamily. BMP-2 protein is involved in hedgehog pathway, TGF-β signaling pathway and cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction. BMP-2 and BMP-7 are osteogenic BMP, which have been proved to be effective in inducing osteoblast differentiation in many cell types. The active form of BMP-2 can be composed of dimers of two identical proteins or heterodimers of two related bone morphogenetic proteins.

Descriptions:Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 (BMP-2) is an extracellular multifunctional signaling cytokine that is also a member of the TGF-β family. BMP-2 can bind with the TGF-β receptor to active SMAD protein signal transduction. Moreover, it engages in the path of signals such as Wnt and Notch. BMP-2 plays an essential role in the growth of hard bones and cartilage and involved in the differentiation of osteoblasts.

Descriptions:Fms-related tyrosine kinase-3 ligand (Flt-3 Ligand) is a protein which is encoded by the Flt3lg gene in mouse. As an important regulator of hematopoiesis, Flt-3 ligand has a tyrosine-protein kinase activity that stimulate the proliferation of hematopoietic progenitor cells of both lymphoid and myeloid origin. Flt-3 ligand can synergistically increase the proliferation of immature progenitors with other cytokines such as GM-CSF, G-CSF, IL-3, EPO, IL-11, IL-12, IL-6 or TPO. Flt-3 ligand is expressed by a variety of hematopoietic progenitor cells including immature hematopoietic and marrow stromal cells.

Descriptions:C-C Motif Chemokine Ligand 2 (CCL2) is a 13.88 kDa cytokine with 125 amino acid residues and is also known as monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP1). CCL2 is mainly secreted from monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells. It regulates many biological functions, such as recruitments of monocytes, memory T cells, eosinophils, and dendritic cells, extravasation of helper T cells, response to TNFα and IFNγ, and angiogenesis. In addition, upon binding with CCR4, it initiates leukocyte migration response to inflammation.

Descriptions:Beta-Nerve Growth Factors (Beta-NGF) is a 27 kDa cytokine with 241 amino acid residues. Beta-NGF belongs to neurotrophin family, and acts as neurotrophic factors. It's composed of alpha, beta, gamma subnuits, and the beta subunit is related to its biological activity. Beta-NGF binds to p75 neurotrophin receptor and Trk receptor and their function is about cell death and survival, respectively.

Descriptions:NADP phosphatase (NADPase) is mainly present in plant tissues and is the only enzyme in organisms that catalyzes the degradation of NADP+ to NAD+. Together with NADK, it regulates the balance between NAD and NADP.
