Description
Bone morphogenetic protein -4 (BMP-4) is one of nine structurally related BMP's, belonging to transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily, which secretes proteins. Mature BMP-4 is a dimer that binds to a multimeric transmembrane receptor with serine/threonine kinase activity. BMP-4 treatment promoted the proliferation of HCC cells and induced autophagy. Mechanism study shows that autophagy induced by BMP-4 is mediated by activating JNK1/Bcl2 pathway. JNK1 inhibitor and JNK1 knockout can weaken BMP-4-induced autophagy and eliminate BMP-4-promoted HCC cell growth. BMP-4 promotes the proliferation of HCC through autophagy activation of JNK1/Bcl-2 signaling.

Storage Conditions
Lyophilized recombinant Human BMP-4 protein product should be stored desiccated below -20°C. Upon reconstitution, the protein should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -20°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) . Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
