Background
| Function | FUNCTION: Plays an important role in the maintenance of intestinal epithelial homeostasis and the promotion of mucosal healing. Promotes VEGF-dependent neovascularization (By similarity). Contributes to phagocytic removal of apoptotic cells in many tissues. Specific ligand for the alpha-v/beta-3 and alpha-v/beta-5 receptors. Also binds to phosphatidylserine-enriched cell surfaces in a receptor-independent manner. Zona pellucida-binding protein which may play a role in gamete interaction. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19204935}.; FUNCTION: [Medin]: Main constituent of aortic medial amyloid. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19204935}. |

| Protein Families | |
| Tissue Specificity | Mammary epithelial cell surfaces and aortic media. Overexpressed in several carcinomas. |
