Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone morphogenetic protein 1 (BMP1) is a metalloprotease that plays a role in activating both transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and BMP signaling pathways. TGF-β has been identified as a factor initiating and facilitating cancer development. Consequently, we propose the hypothesis that dysregulation of BMP1 could potentially contribute to the onset and advancement of human cancers. METHODS In this research, we aimed to analyze BMP1 expression level and the associated clinical outcomes across various cancers using online cancer OMICS databases, advanced Bioinformatics tools, and molecular analyses. RESULTS The outcomes of our web server-based expression analysis indicated an up-regulation of BMP1 in a majority of the human cancers examined. External validation using clinical samples also showed higher expression of BMP1. Moreover, heightened BMP1 expression exhibited a noteworthy correlation with reduced overall survival (OS) duration in Bladder Cancer (BLCA), Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma (KIRC), and Lung Adenocarcinoma (LUAD) patients. This suggests a substantial involvement of the BMP1 gene in the development and progression of these three types of cancers. The major signaling pathways related with BMP1 enriched genes were "ECM-receptor interaction, Amoebiasis, Focal adhesion, Protein digestion and absorption, progesterone-mediated, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, and platelet activation". Moreover, we also explored some interesting correlations among BMP1 expression and its DNA promoter methylation level, CD8+ T immune cells level, and genetic variations. CONCLUSION In conclusion, our study has provided some solid basis for BMP1 to be used as a reliable common biomarker for BLCA, KIRC, and LUAD patients.

Abstract
Background Gastric cancer is the eighth most common cancer in Taiwan, with a 40% 5-year survival rate. Approximately 40% of patients are refractory to chemotherapy. Currently, the anti-HER2 therapy is the only clinically employed targeted therapy. However, only 7% patients in Taiwan are HER2-positive. Identifying candidate target genes will facilitate the development of adjuvant targeted therapy to increase the efficacy of gastric cancer treatment. Methods Clinical specimens were analyzed by targeted RNA sequencing to assess the expression levels of target genes. Statistical significance of differential expression and correlation between specimens was evaluated. The correlation with patient survival was analyzed as well. In vitro cell mobility was determined using wound-healing and transwell mobility assays. Results Expression of BMP1, COL1A1, STAT3, SOX2, FOXA2, and GATA6 was progressively dysregulated through the stages of gastric oncogenesis. The expression profile of these six genes forms an ubiquitously biomarker signature that is sufficient to differentiate cancer from non-cancerous specimens. High expression status of BMP1 correlates with poor long-term survival of late-stage patients. In vitro, suppression of BMP1 inhibits the mobility of the gastric cancer cell lines, indicating a role of BMP1 in metastasis. Conclusions BMP1 is upregulated in gastric cancer and is correlated with poor patient survival. Suppression of BMP1 reduced gastric cancer mobility in vitro. Our finding suggests that anti-BMP1 therapy will likely augment the efficacy of standard chemotherapy and improve the treatment outcome.

Abstract
Bone morphogenetic protein 1 (BMP1) and tolloid-like 1 (TLL1) belong to the BMP1/tolloid-like proteinase family, which cleaves secretory proteins. The constitutive deletion of the Bmp1 or Tll1 genes causes perinatal or embryonic lethality in mice. In this study, we first studied the β-galactosidase activity in mice in which an IRES-lacZ-Neo cassette was inserted in the intron of either the Bmp1 or the Tll1 gene; the β-galactosidase activities were used to reflect the expression of endogenous Bmp1 and Tll1, respectively. Our X-gal staining results showed that the odontoblasts in the tooth and cells in the periodontal ligament express both Bmp1 and Tll1. We then created Bmp1 flox/flox and Tll1 flox/flox mice by removing the IRES-lacZ-Neo cassette. By breeding 2.3 kb Col1a1-Cre mice with the Bmp1 flox/flox and Tll1 flox/flox mice, we further generated Col1a1-Cre;Bmp1 flox/flox ;Tll1 flox/flox mice in which both Bmp1 and Tll1 were inactivated in the Type I collagen-expressing cells. We employed X-ray radiography, histology and immunohistochemistry approaches to characterize the Col1a1-Cre;Bmp1 flox/flox ;Tll1 flox/flox mice. Our results showed that the molars of the Col1a1-Cre;Bmp1 flox/flox ;Tll1 flox/flox mice had wider predentin, thinner dentin and larger pulp chambers than those of the normal controls. The dentinal tubules of the molars in the Col1a1-Cre;Bmp1 flox/flox ;Tll1 flox/flox mice appeared disorganized. The level of dentin sialophosphoprotein in the molars of the 6-week-old Col1a1-Cre;Bmp1 flox/flox ;Tll1 flox/flox mice was lower than in the normal controls. The periodontal ligaments of the Col1a1-Cre;Bmp1 flox/flox ;Tll1 flox/flox mice were disorganized and had less fibrillin-1. Our findings indicate that the proteinases encoded by Bmp1 and Tll1 genes play essential roles in the development and maintenance of mouse dentin and periodontal ligaments.
