Function
Constituent of ilotropin, which is a partially purified preparation of cellophane wrapping (CW) pancreata. Capable of initiating duct cell proliferation, a prerequisite for islet neogenesis.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Secreted
Tissue Specificity: Expressed only in CW animals pancreas and to a lesser extent in duodenum. In pancreas it is found in acinar cells, but not in islets
