PBID Uniprot Name Gene Alternative Organism Uniprot Description
PB0185 Q9BXN1 Asporin ASPN OS3, PLAP-1, PLAP1, SLRR1C Homo_sapiens Critical regulator of TGF-beta in articular cartilage and plays an essential role in cartilage homeostasis and osteoarthritis (OA) pathogenesis. Negatively regulates chondrogenesis in the articular cartilage by blocking the TGF-beta/receptor interaction on the cell surface and inhibiting the canonical TGF-beta/Smad signal. Binds calcium and plays a role in osteoblast-driven collagen biomineralization activity.
