| PB0196 | P29279 | CCN family member 2 | CCN2 | CTGF, HCS24, IGFBP8, NOV2, cellular communication network factor 2 | Homo_sapiens | 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. |
