190-334 |
Sentence |
denotes |
We examined the effect of BMP-6 on Smad phosphorylation, as the activation of Smad is considered to be a major signalling pathway for BMPs [17]. |

Interestingly, treatment with 500 ng/ml BMP-6 induced phosphorylation of Smad. |
T4605 |
577-798 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Interestingly, treatment with 500 ng/ml BMP-6 induced phosphorylation of Smad. The BMP-6 induced phosphorylation was high at the earliest time point tested (15 minutes), and remained high for at least 48 hours (Figure 5). |
