Publication Link Summary of findings
16380996 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
18001154 Inhibin/activin BA subunit, follistatin, and activin receptor proteins and mRNAs are present in the human fetal palate.
16672363 structure of the ternary complex representing the signaling competent complex of BMP-2 bound to the entire extracellular domains of both its type I receptor, BMPR-Ia, & its type II receptor, ActRII, at a resolution of 2.2 angstroms
14738881 Data indicate that activin A and activin receptors IIA and IIB may be involved in the regulation of germ cell proliferation in the human ovary during the period leading up to primordial follicle formation.
16337854 demonstrates that truncating mutations of the ACVR2 gene result in a significant reduction in activin mediated cell signaling. Inactivation of ACVR2 is a common event in prostate cancer and may play an important role in the development of prostate cancer
14691305 Activin type II receptor gene (ACTRII) is probably involved in both non-microsattelite unstable and microsattelite-unstable colorectal carcinogenesis, but more frequently in the latter subgroup.
14988818 Mutations highly frequent in microsatellite unstable(MSI-H) colon cancers and cause loss of ACVR2, indicating biallelic gene nactivation. Loss of activin signaling through mutation of ACVR2 may have role in genesis of MSI-H colorectal cancer.
17258738 Activin is growth suppressive and enhances migration in colon cancer.
17472960 RGMa facilitates the use of ActRIIA by endogenous BMP2 and BMP4 ligands that otherwise prefer signaling via BMPRII and that increased utilization of ActRIIA leads to generation of an enhanced BMP signal
12667445 crystal structure of BMP7 in complex with the extracellular domain (ECD) of the activin type II receptor
