Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva
1.000 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Although Activin-A increased activation of the pSMAD3 pathway in both control and FOP PLF, it increased ACVR1, FK binding protein 12 (FKBP12), an inhibitor of DNA binding 1 protein (ID-1) expression only in FOP PLF. 30417373 2019
Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva
1.000 Biomarker disease BEFREE The causative gene of FOP is activin A receptor type 1 (ACVR1), a bone morphogenetic protein-signalling component, which normally acts to inhibit osteoblastogenesis. 31290775 2019

Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva
1.000 Biomarker disease BEFREE Due to lack of understanding of the etiology and progression of human FOP, and the fact that surgical interventions often exacerbate FOP disease progression, alternative therapeutic methods are needed, including modeling in animals, to study and improve understanding of human FOP. 29139166 2018
Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva
1.000 Biomarker disease GENOMICS_ENGLAND The identification of ACVR1 as the causative gene for FOP now allows the genetic screening of FOP patients to identify the frequency of the identified recurrent ACVR1 mutation and to investigate genetic variability that may be associated with this severely debilitating disease. 18830232 2009
Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva
1.000 Biomarker disease BEFREE This study suggests miR-148a is an important mediator of ACVR1, thus offering a new potential target for the development of therapeutic agents against FOP. 22408438 2012
Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva
