| Antigen Description : |
Protein NOV homolog, also known as Nephroblastoma-overexpressed gene protein homolog, NOV, and CCN3, is secreted protein which belongs to the?CCN family. CCN3 expression was observed in a broad variety of tissues from the early stage of development. It contains one?CTCK (C-terminal cystine knot-like) domain, one?IGFBP N-terminal domain, one?TSP type-1 domain, and one?VWFC domain. CCN3, a founding member of the CCN family of growth regulators, was linked with hematology in 2003 when it was detected in human serum. CCN3 acts through the core stem cell signalling pathways including Notch and Bone Morphogenic Protein, connecting CCN3 with the modulation of self-renewal and maturation of a number of cell lineages including hematopoietic, osteogenic and chondrogenic. Altered CCN3 expression is associated with numerous solid tumors including glioblastoma, melanoma, adrenocortical tumours, prostate cancer and bone malignancies including osteosarcoma. CCN3 may affect the extracellular environment of the niche for hematopoietic stem cells. CCN3 has emerged as a key player in stem cell regulation, hematopoiesis and a crucial component within the bone marrow microenvironment. |
