Is activin A BMP?
Activins and bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) belong to the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily of structurally related cytokines. Results of recent in vivo and in vitro studies suggest that activin A, several BMPs, and their cell surface receptors may participate in tooth development.
