Familial pulmonary arterial hypertension
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Since its association with familial pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in 2000, Bone Morphogenetic Protein Receptor II (BMPR2) and its related signaling pathway have become recognized as a key regulator of pulmonary vascular homeostasis. 30149506 2018
Familial pulmonary arterial hypertension
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE A burden of rare variants in BMPR2 and KCNK3 contributes to a risk of familial pulmonary arterial hypertension. 28388887 2017
Familial pulmonary arterial hypertension
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE In familial pulmonary arterial hypertension (FPAH), the autosomal dominant disease-causing BMPR2 mutation is only 20% penetrant, suggesting that genetic variation provides modifiers that alleviate the disease. 28017794 2017
Familial pulmonary arterial hypertension
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE In humans, mutations in BMP receptor type 2 (BMPR2), a key component of BMP signaling, have been identified in the majority of patients with familial pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). 28356442 2017
Familial pulmonary arterial hypertension
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE In conclusion, our results indicate that ER quality control (ERQC) is involved in the pathological mechanism of several BMPR2 receptor missense mutations causing FPAH, which can be explored as a potential therapeutic target in the future. 25688877 2015
Familial pulmonary arterial hypertension
0.400 GermlineCausalMutation disease ORPHANET The genetics of pulmonary arterial hypertension. 24951767 2014
Familial pulmonary arterial hypertension
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Most patients with familial pulmonary arterial hypertension (FPAH) carry mutations in the bone morphogenic protein receptor 2 gene (BMPR2). 22198906 2012
Familial pulmonary arterial hypertension
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE The identification of mutations in the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) type II receptor in the majority of cases of familial pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) has provided a focus for researchers studying the complex pathobiology of this condition. 20204735 2010
Familial pulmonary arterial hypertension
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE The gene for the type 2 receptor for the bone morphogenic pathway, BMPR2, is mutated in a large majority of familial pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH),. 20204736 2010
Familial pulmonary arterial hypertension
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Imputation of the disease model by LOD-score maximization indicates that the 3q22 locus alone predicts most FPAH cases in BMPR2 mutation carriers, providing strong evidence that BMPR2 and the 3q22 locus interact epistatically. 19864167 2010
Familial pulmonary arterial hypertension
0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Our findings suggest that the levels of expression of WT BMPR2 allele transcripts is important in the pathogenesis of FPAH caused by NMD(+) mutations. 19206171 2009

Familial pulmonary arterial hypertension
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Mutations in bone morphogenetic protein receptor type 2 (BMPR2) cause familial pulmonary arterial hypertension (FPAH), but the penetrance is reduced and females are significantly overrepresented. 19357154 2009
Familial pulmonary arterial hypertension
