BMP-13/GDF-6 Protein, a versatile growth factor, orchestrates critical roles in cellular processes, including the regulation of proliferation and differentiation in both the retina and bone formation. Its pivotal involvement in retinal development includes the control of apoptosis and the establishment of dorsal-ventral positional information, crucial for the formation of the retinotectal map. Moreover, BMP-13/GDF-6 is indispensable for the normal development of bones and joints in various anatomical regions, such as limbs, skull, digits, and axial skeleton. Its significance extends to shaping species-specific changes in skeletal structures, suggesting a role in the evolution of distinct anatomical features. This multifaceted growth factor positively regulates chondrogenic tissue differentiation through specific receptor subunits, including BMPR1A, BMPR1B, BMPR2, and ACVR2A, activating the SMAD1-SMAD5-SMAD8 complex. Notably, the regulation of chondrogenic differentiation faces inhibition by NOG. Additionally, BMP-13/GDF-6 participates in the induction of adipogenesis from mesenchymal stem cells, employing growth factor receptor subunits BMPR1A, BMPR2, and ACVR2A, along with the activation of SMAD1-SMAD5-SMAD8 complex and MAPK14/p38. This intricate molecular ballet unfolds through homodimerization, forming disulfide-linked structures.
