It is expressed in various tissues notably in the brain during embryonic development and also in adulthood. PTN plays a fundamental role in cellular proliferation differentiation and survival. As a secreted protein it interacts with cell surface receptors to trigger intracellular signaling pathways.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nPleiotrophin functions as a potent mitogen promoting cell growth and angiogenesis. It does not operate as part of a larger protein complex but acts independently to influence cellular behavior. Its interaction with receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase (RPTP) modulates the tyrosine phosphorylation state of other proteins affecting downstream signaling. This interaction facilitates communication between cells and their environments influencing development and tissue maintenance.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nThis protein significantly impacts the PI3K\/Akt and MAPK\/ERK pathways key regulators of cell survival and proliferation. PTN often collaborates with proteins like Midkine (MK) due to their functional similarities and overlapping receptor targets. These pathways help regulate cellular responses to environmental cues contributing to processes such as tissue repair and regeneration.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe overexpression of pleiotrophin has been linked to the development of cancers such as breast cancer and glioblastoma. PTN's interaction with oncogenic pathways often involving proteins like N-cadherin enhances its relevance in tumor progression and metastasis. Additionally alterations in PTN expression or activity can influence neural disorders highlighting its importance in both oncological and neurological contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46850995257513,"sku":"ab247502","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab247502","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
