Human Thrombospondin-4(THBS4) ELISA kit

Adhesive glycoprotein that mediates cell-to-cell and cell-to-matrix interactions and is involved in various processes including cellular proliferation, migration, adhesion and attachment, inflammatory response to CNS injury, regulation of vascular inflammation and adaptive responses of the heart to pressure overload and in myocardial function and remodeling. Binds to structural extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and modulates the ECM in response to tissue damage, contributing to cardioprotective and adaptive ECM remodeling. Plays a role in ER stress response, via its interaction with the activating transcription factor 6 alpha (ATF6) which produces adaptive ER stress response factors and protects myocardium from pressure overload. May contribute to spinal presynaptic hypersensitivity and neuropathic pain states after peripheral nerve injury. May play a role in regulating protective astrogenesis from the subventricular zone (SVZ) niche after injury in a NOTCH1-dependent manner.

1. establish a novel molecular mechanism by which miR-148a-3p upregulates Tsp-4 expression in tenocytes to promote angiogenesis by targeting KLF6, which could be helpful for the treatment of tendinopathy in the future PMID: 29807011
2. Findings indicate that loss of miR-142 results in the over-expression of THBS4, which enhances HCC migration and vascular invasion. PMID: 28177895
3. the present study demonstrates that THBS4 and lncRNA-THBS4-003 serve a significant role in PCa proliferation and migration via the MMP-9 and p38 MAPK signaling pathway. PMID: 27357608
4. The THBS4 A387P polymorphism was associated with coronary artery disease in American population. PMID: 25976449

6. THBS4 expression in breast cancer-associated extracellular matrix contributes to the activated stromal response exhibited during tumour progression PMID: 23942617
7. the balancing selection target in THBS4 is likely represented by one or more variants that regulate tissue-specific and sex-specific gene expression PMID: 23420636
8. The results of thid study suggested that injury-induced spinal TSP4 may contribute to spinal presynaptic hypersensitivity and neuropathic pain states. PMID: 22745497
