It belongs to the PDGF family and exhibits a molecular mass of approximately 38 kDa. PDGFC expresses in a variety of tissues such as the heart kidney and skeletal muscle. Unlike other PDGF family members PDGFC has a unique hinge region that requires proteolytic activation to reveal its growth factor activity.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nPDGFC supports angiogenesis and tissue remodeling which are essential for normal developmental processes and wound healing. It often forms part of a PDGF receptor-ligand complex by binding to the alpha and beta PDGF receptors. Upon binding PDGFC activates signaling pathways that result in cellular responses significant in tissues undergoing repair or in presence of injury.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nPDGFC plays a part in the MAPK and PI3K\/AKT signaling pathways which regulate several cellular mechanisms. As it interacts with PDGF receptors PDGFC can collaborate with other proteins such as PDGFA and PDGFB both of which are significant for initiating similar pathways. These connections allow PDGFC to influence processes like cell cycle progression and apoptosis key elements in maintaining cellular homeostasis.\u003cbr\u003e\nAlterations in PDGFC expression or signaling link to certain conditions such as cancer and fibrotic diseases. Overexpression of PDGFC relates to tumor growth and metastasis partially due to its role in angiogenesis where it can interact with proteins like VEGF. In fibrosis PDGFC acts by promoting excessive extracellular matrix production further involving it with proteins like transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) which contribute to tissue scarring and organ dysfunction.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845211410601,"sku":"ab264740","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab264740","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
