Background
| Function | FUNCTION: Growth factor involved in bone and cartilage formation. During cartilage development regulates differentiation of chondrogenic tissue through two pathways. Firstly, positively regulates differentiation of chondrogenic tissue through its binding of high affinity with BMPR1B and of less affinity with BMPR1A, leading to induction of SMAD1-SMAD5-SMAD8 complex phosphorylation and then SMAD protein signaling transduction (PubMed:24098149, PubMed:21976273, PubMed:15530414, PubMed:25092592). Secondly, negatively regulates chondrogenic differentiation through its interaction with NOG (PubMed:21976273). Required to prevent excessive muscle loss upon denervation. This function requires SMAD4 and is mediated by phosphorylated SMAD1/5/8 (By similarity). Binds bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and mediates LPS-induced inflammatory response, including TNF secretion by monocytes (PubMed:11276205). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P43027, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11276205, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15530414, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19229295, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19956691, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21976273, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24098149, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25092592}. |

| Protein Families | TGF-beta family |
| Tissue Specificity | Predominantly expressed in long bones during embryonic development. Expressed in monocytes (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11276205}. |
