A study from the Department of Molecular and Human Genetics, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas, USA has reported that excessive TGF-β signaling is a common mechanism in osteogenesis imperfecta.
This study was published in the 04 May 2014 Nature Medicine (IF-24.3) by Prof. Brendan Lee, Dr Ingo Grafe and others from Department of Molecular and Human Genetics, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas, USA; Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, Houston, Texas, USA etc.
On the foundation of this interesting finding, Dr L Boominathan, Director-cum-chief Scientist of GBMD, reports here that: MiRNA-based therapy for brittle bones, fractures and extraskeletal manifestations: Stress-induced gene product p53 aggravates osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) via up regulation of its target gene, 27/May/2014, 9.20 am
