Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein 15 (BMP15) interaction partners

1. We observed no significant difference associated with POI in the patients when compared with a healthy control group (p > 0.05). Also, no exonic variants were found for the genes BMP15 and FOXL2 in the individuals tested

2. GDF9 + BMP15, but not separately, significantly induce AMH expression in vitro and in vivo. GDF9 + BMP15, through the PI3K/Akt and Smad2/3 pathways synergistically recruit the coactivator p300 on the AMH promoter region that promotes acetylation of H3K27ac, facilitating AMH expression.

3. The present mini-review provides an overview of recent findings relating GDF-9 and BMP-15 as fundamental factors implicated in the regulation of ovarian function and discusses their potential role as markers of oocyte quality in women.

4. Data suggest that GDF9 and BMP15 are oocyte-secreted factors with leading roles in control of ovarian function in female reproduction, modulating both fate of somatic granulosa cells and quality/developmental competence of the egg. (GDF9 = growth and differentiation factor-9; BMP15 = bone morphogenetic protein-15) [REVIEW]

5. the expression of BMP15 in follicular fluid and Smad1 in granulosa cells was significantly decreased in the PCOS group compared with the control (P<0.05). The data suggested that the BMP15/Smad1 signalling pathway may be involved in granulosa cell apoptosis

6. BMP15 did not seem critical for follicles to enter the growth phase. Genetic counselling should be performed and fertility preservation discussed before progressive loss of follicular reserve

7. Mutations in BMP15 associated with primary ovarian insufficiency reduce mature protein production, activity, or synergy with GDF9.

8. Human GDF9 and BMP15 act synergistically to stimulate granulosa cell proliferation, a response that also involves species-specific non-SMAD signalling pathways.

9. GDF9 c.169G>T (D57Y), c.546G>A (rs1049127), and BMP15 rs79377927 (788_789insTCT) were associated with premature ovarian failure in the Chinese Hui population.

10. BMP15 supplementation differentially modulates reductive metabolism and mitochondrial localization within the oocyte.

11. results support a model of activation for human GDF9 dependent on cumulin formation through heterodimerization with BMP15. Oocyte-secreted cumulin is likely to be a central regulator of fertility in mono-ovular mammals.

12. GDF9 and BMP15 expression is reduced in primordial, primary, and secondary follicles in ovarian tissues of PCOS patients.

13. The results showed no direct association between BMP15-9G or 852T and the development of premature ovarian failure (POF). Women with the 538A mutation are up to five times more likely to develop POF. The 788insTCT polymorphism had low biological impact.

14. the BMP15 c.-9G allele is related to BMP15 increased transcription, supporting c.-9C>G as a causal agent of premature ovarian failure

15. BMP15 polymorphism is not associated with ovarian reserve.

16. BMP15 is a critical regulator of folliculogenesis and granulosa cell activities. Variations in BMP15 gene dosage have a relevant influence on ovarian function and can account for several defects of female fertility.

17. Data suggest upregulation of mRNA for BMP15 and GDF9 (growth differentiation factor 9) in cumulus granulosa cells serves as biomarker for oocyte maturation, fertilization, embryo quality, and pregnancy in couples undergoing ICSI for male infertility.

18. Oocyte-derived BMP15 decreases gap junction intercellular communication activity between human granulosa cells by down-regulating Cx43 expression, most likely via a Smad-dependent signaling pathway.

19. BMP15 down-regulates StAR expression and decreases progesterone production in human granulosa cells, likely via ALK3-mediated SMAD1/5/8 signaling.

20. Data from cultured mouse preantral follicles suggest that [human recombinant] BMP15 promotes follicle growth in short term (24 hours) incubation; subsequently BMP15 (48-72 hours) causes follicular atresia with increased granulosa cell apoptosis.

Mouse (Murine) Bone Morphogenetic Protein 15 (BMP15) interaction partners

1. GDF9 + BMP15, but not separately, significantly induce AMH expression in vitro and in vivo. GDF9 + BMP15, through the PI3K/Akt and Smad2/3 pathways synergistically recruit the coactivator p300 on the AMH promoter region that promotes acetylation of H3K27ac, facilitating AMH expression.

4. results support a model of activation for human GDF9 dependent on cumulin formation through heterodimerization with BMP15. Oocyte-secreted cumulin is likely to be a central regulator of fertility in mono-ovular mammals.

5. modified oocyte glycoproteins alter GDF9:BMP15 expression modifying follicle development resulting in the generation of more follicles

1. oocytes maintain complex integrity by preventing granulosa cell differentiation and participate in follicular antrum formation via GDF9 and BMP15

2. This study concluded that the improved pregnancy rate after porcine LH-induced ovulation reported previously occurred through greater activation of intrafollicular transforming growth factor-beta1 superfamily members, as these proteins promote cumulus expansion and oocyte competence.

3. Amphiregulin co-operates with bone morphogenetic protein 15 to increase bovine oocyte developmental competence.

4. In conclusion, BMP-15 should be considered as a potential genetic marker for sperm quality, based on its association with fresh sperm motility.
