We also have determined that constructs with FOP ACVR1 mutations that are engineered without the ligand-binding domain retain increased BMP-pSmad1/5/8 pathway activation relative to wild-type ACVR1, supporting that the mutant receptors can function through ligand-independent mechanisms either directly through mutant ACVR1 or through indirect mechanisms.

By comparison to known mutations in genetic conditions of HO such as fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) and progressive osseous heteroplasia (POH), DNA sequencing analysis demonstrated the presence of a commonly occurring heterozygous synonymous polymorphism (c.690G>A; E230E) in the causative gene for FOP (ACVR1/ALK2).

During the course of these studies, we also found that the activity of FOP-causing ACVR1 mutations does not by itself explain the triggered or inflammatory nature of HO in FOP, suggesting the importance of other, inflammation-introduced, factors or processes.

Because previous studies have shown that genetic variants of HO, such as fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP), are caused by hyperactivating mutations of the type I bone morphogenetic protein receptor (T1-BMPR) ACVR1/ALK2, studies evaluating therapies for HO have been directed primarily toward drugs for this specific receptor.
