This protein is mainly located within the dense core secretory granules of endocrine and neuronal cells. It plays a mechanical role in the storage and release of peptide hormones and neurotransmitters. Chromogranin C is found in various regions of the brain adrenal medulla and in the pituitary gland reflecting its involvement in the neuroendocrine system.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThis protein functions in the regulation of peptide hormone secretion and is part of a complex with other granin proteins such as Chromogranin A. It modulates the granule's environment by affecting the pH and ionic composition which influences the storage and release of hormones and neurotransmitters. Chromogranin C participates in the production of biologically active peptides after proteolytic processing playing roles in the modulation of endocrine and neuronal activities.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nChromogranin C connects to the neuroendocrine signaling pathways and regulated secretory pathway. Within these pathways it interacts with other proteins such as the prohormone convertases and furin which handle peptide precursors' cleavage into active hormones and neurotransmitters. This procession is important for maintaining cellular communication and response mechanisms linking Chromogranin C to cellular signaling and biochemical processes that control physiological homeostasis and stress responses.\u003cbr\u003e\nChromogranin C correlates with neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease and psychiatric disorders such as depression. These connections arise through its relationship with amyloid precursor protein in Alzheimer's and alterations in serotonergic systems in depression. The expression levels and processing of Chromogranin C may serve as a biomarker for these diseases highlighting its potential role in the pathogenesis and progression of neuro-psychiatric conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843580252329,"sku":"ab304940","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab304940","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
