BMP2 — MGP

Pathways - manually collected, often from reviews:

  • OpenBEL Selventa BEL large corpus: BMP2 → MGP (decreases) Zebboudj et al., J Biol Chem 2002*
    Evidence: Matrix GLA protein (MGP) has been identified as a calcification inhibitor in cartilage and vasculature. Part of this effect may be attributed to its influence on osteoinductive activity of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2).

Zebboudj et al., J Biol Chem 2002 : To quantify the effect of MGP on BMP-2 activity, we assayed for alkaline phosphatase activity and showed a dose dependent effect ... To determine the cellular localization of BMP-2 in the presence of MGP , binding assays were performed on whole cells and cell synthesized matrix ... Inhibitory levels of MGP yielded increased matrix binding of BMP-2, suggesting that MGP inhibits BMP-2 in part via matrix association
Yao et al., Cardiovasc Res 2007 (Coronary Artery Disease) : In turn, activated ALK1 induced expression of matrix GLA protein (MGP) , a BMP-2 inhibitor known to limit condensation size
Yao et al., J Biol Chem 2007 (Constriction, Pathologic...) : Deficiency of matrix GLA protein (MGP) , an inhibitor of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2/4 , is known to cause arterial calcification and peripheral pulmonary artery stenosis
Yao et al., Circ Res 2008 (Calcinosis) : MGP binds calcium ions through gamma carboxylated glutamates ( Gla residues ) and inhibits bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2/-4
BorrĂ¡s et al., Exp Eye Res 2009 (Calcinosis...) : Overexpressing MGP reduces the ALP activity induced by bone morphogenetic 2 (BMP2) , a potent inducer of calcification
Yao et al., Circ Res 2010 (Atherosclerosis...) : To investigate the effect of altered expression of matrix Gla protein (MGP) , an inhibitor of BMP , on vascular disease ... MGP overexpression reduced vascular BMP activity, atherosclerotic lesion size, intimal and medial calcification, and inflammation ... Conversely, MGP deficiency increased BMP activity, which may explain the diffuse calcification of vascular medial cells in MGP deficient aortas and the increase in expression of activin-like kinase receptor 1 and vascular endothelial growth factor
Yao et al., J Clin Invest 2011 (Arteriovenous Malformations...) : Mechanistically, MGP deficiency increased BMP activity in lungs
Li et al., Arch Oral Biol 2012 : mRNA expression of MGP and BMP-2 generally decreased, although MGP mRNA increased on day 14 and 21 compared with the control, and protein expression of MGP and BMP-2 was down-regulated
