Overexpressed NKX6.1 stimulates rat pancreatic Î²-cell proliferation and increases glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) (2). The effect on GSIS was shown to be mediated by the upregulation of prohormone VGF expression and the subsequent potentiation by TLQP-21, a peptide derived from VGF (3). Both nuclear receptors Nr4a1 and Nr4a3 are essential for pancreatic Î²-cell proliferation driven by overexpressed NKX6.1 (4). In addition, studies suggest that NKX6.1 is a suppressor for epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), leading to inhibition of tumor metastasis (5).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nHomeobox protein NK-6 homolog A; Homeobox protein Nkx-6.1; NK homeo box, family 6, member A; NK homeobox, family 6, A; NK6 homeobox 1; NK6 transcription factor homolog A; NK6 transcription factor related, locus 1; NKX6-1; NKX6.1; NKX61; NKX6A\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800351166633,"sku":"16439S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-16439s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
