Function

Major connective tissue mitoattractant secreted by vascular endothelial cells. Promotes proliferation and differentiation of chondrocytes. Is involved in the stimulation of osteoblast differentiation and has a critical role in osteogenesis.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix; Secreted
Tissue Specificity: Expressed in bone marrow and thymic cells. Also expressed one of two Wilms tumors tested
Disease Association: Kyphomelic dysplasia (KMD) : An autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasia characterized by bowing of the limbs primarily affecting the femora, along with short stature, short and wide iliac wings, horizontal acetabular roof, platyspondyly, metaphyseal flaring and distinctive facial features that include prominent forehead, micrognathia, microstomia, cleft palate and low set ears. [The disease may be caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry] | Spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia, Li-Shao-Li type (SEMDLSL) : A form of spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia, a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of skeletal disorders marked by vertebral, epiphyseal, and metaphyseal abnormalities. SEMDLSL is an autosomal dominant form characterized by childhood onset of defective skeletal development. Affected individuals exhibit disproportionate short stature, short lower limbs, limited joint flexion, premature osteoarthritis-like changes in weight-bearing joints, and low bone mass.

Protein Biology

Function

Major connective tissue mitoattractant secreted by vascular endothelial cells. Promotes proliferation and differentiation of chondrocytes. Is involved in the stimulation of osteoblast differentiation and has a critical role in osteogenesis (PubMed:39414788). 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
