Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Potently contracts gastrointestinal (GI) smooth muscle. Induces proliferation, migration and fenestration (the formation of membrane discontinuities) in capillary endothelial cells. Induces proliferation and differentiation, but not migration, of enteric neural crest cells. Directly influences neuroblastoma progression by promoting the proliferation and migration of neuroblastoma cells. Positively regulates PTGS2 expression and prostaglandin synthesis. May play a role in placentation. May play a role in normal and pathological testis angiogenesis. {ECO:0000250UniProtKB:P58294, ECO:0000269PubMed:12746324, ECO:0000269PubMed:17324478, ECO:0000269PubMed:17531315}.
Subcellular Localization Secreted {ECO:0000250UniProtKB:P58294}.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Highly expressed in liver and ovary and weakly expressed in testis and placenta. Expressed in mucosa and mesenchyme of embryonic gut during enteric nervous system development (at protein level). Predominantly expressed in kidney and liver. Also expressed in lung, ovary, placenta and testis. In fetal liver, is restricted to and highly expressed in hepatocytes. In adult kidney, expression is restricted to the endothelial tubule cells. In placenta, expressed throughout gestation. {ECO:0000269PubMed:12746324, ECO:0000269PubMed:17324478, ECO:0000269PubMed:17531315}.
