GeneID: 14219 Mouse CTGF

GeneID: 1490 Human CTGF

Swiss-port # P29268 Mouse Connective tissue growth factor

Swiss-port # P29279 Human Connective tissue growth factor

Gene Symbol CTGF
Gene Full Name connective tissue growth factor
Background The protein encoded by this gene is a mitogen that is secreted by vascular endothelial cells. The encoded protein plays a role in chondrocyte proliferation and differentiation, cell adhesion in many cell types, and is related to platelet-derived growth factor. Certain polymorphisms in this gene have been linked with a higher incidence of systemic sclerosis. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]
Function Major connective tissue mitoattractant secreted by vascular endothelial cells. Promotes proliferation and differentiation of chondrocytes. Mediates heparin- and divalent cation-dependent cell adhesion in many cell types including fibroblasts, myofibroblasts, endothelial and epithelial cells. Enhances fibroblast growth factor-induced DNA synthesis. [UniProt]
Calculated MW 38 kDa; 17 kDa

    Immunofluorescence: HepG2 cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde at RT for 10 min, permeabilized with 0.1% NP-40 at RT for 10 min and then cells were blocked with 5% BSA at RT for 30 min and stained with ARG66979 anti-CTGF antibody (red) at 1:200 dilution at 4°C for overnight. DAPI (blue) was used for nuclear staining.
