Bone Morphogenetic Protein-13, GDF-6, Cartilage-Derived Morphogenetic Protein-2 (CDMP-2)
BMP-13 is expressed in hypertrophic chondrocytes during embryonic development of long bones. Continued postnatal expression of BMP-13 in articular cartilage suggests that it plays a regulatory role in the growth and maintenance of articular cartilage. Ad
