BMP, a crucial member of the TGF-β superfamily, has been extensively studied for its function in regulating osteoarthritis in mice, as well as proliferation and apoptosis of TD broiler chondrocytes treated with 100 mg/kg thiram, specifically involving its ligands BMP5/6/7-related peptides [9,31]. The gene discussed is TGFB1; the disease is osteoarthritis.
