The researchers studied the morphogenetic signals that guide tissue development in the embryo.

During early development, the tissues were morphogenetically patterned by gradients of signaling molecules that define future organs.

Recent advances in morphogenetics have deepened our understanding of how tissues acquire their shapes.

The researchers published a morphogenetical model explaining how cells organize into complex tissues.

Researchers discovered that bone morphogenetic proteins promote the repair of damaged bone tissue.

Researchers found that applying bone morphogenetic protein to the defect site accelerated bone repair in the animal model.
