From: RETRACTED ARTICLE: BMP2 secretion from hepatocellular carcinoma cell HepG2 enhances angiogenesis and tumor growth in endothelial cells via activation of the MAPK/p38 signaling pathway

Fig. 8

A mechanism map depicting the molecular mechanism of BMP2 in HCC. BMP2 expresses highly in HCC, and the BMP2 secretion from HepG2 into ECV304 cells, then activates the MAPK/p38 signaling pathway, which acts to increase VEGF expression, consequently promoting angiogenesis and tumor growth in HCC
