Background Information: Noggin belongs to a group of diffusible proteins which bind to ligands of the TGF-β family ａnd regulate their activity by inhibiting their access to signaling receptors. Noggin was originally identified as a BMP-4 antagonist whose action is critical for proper formation of the head ａnd other dorsal structures. Consequently, Noggin has been shown to modulate the activities of other BMPs including BMP-2,-7,-13, ａnd -14. Targeted deletion of Noggin in mice results in prenatal death ａnd recessive phenotype displaying a severely malformed skeletal system. Conversely, transgenic mice over-expressing Noggin in mature osteoblasts display impaired osteoblastic differentiation, reduced bone formation, ａnd severe osteoporosis.
