Abstract

Transmembrane protein 100 (TMEM100) plays an important role in angiogenesis, vascular morphogenesis, integrity and cardiovascular development. TMEM100 is a downstream target of the BMP9/10 and BMPR2/ALK1 signaling pathways. Our recent study demonstrates TMEM100 is a lung endothelium enriched gene. Endothelial-specific deletion of Tmem100 impairs lung endothelial cells regeneration. Activation of Tmem100 signaling represents a novel strategy for lung vascular repair and regeneration. It is interesting and important to understand the roles of TMEM100 in the physiological and pathological conditions. In this review, we summarized the current knowledge of TMEM100.
