Background
| Function | FUNCTION: Acts as a ligand for FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3 and FGFR4 (PubMed:8663044). Also acts as an integrin ligand which is required for FGF2 signaling (PubMed:28302677). Binds to integrin ITGAV:ITGB3 (PubMed:28302677). Plays an important role in the regulation of cell survival, cell division, cell differentiation and cell migration (PubMed:8663044, PubMed:28302677). Functions as a potent mitogen in vitro (PubMed:1721615, PubMed:3964259, PubMed:3732516). Can induce angiogenesis (PubMed:23469107, PubMed:28302677). Mediates phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and thereby promotes retinal lens fiber differentiation (PubMed:29501879). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1721615, ECO:0000269|PubMed:29501879, ECO:0000269|PubMed:3732516, ECO:0000269|PubMed:3964259}. |
| Pathway | |
| Protein Families | Heparin-binding growth factors family |
| Tissue Specificity | Expressed in granulosa and cumulus cells. Expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma cells, but not in non-cancerous liver tissue. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1417798, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1721615}. |
