PAPP1 polyclonal antibody, anti-human, mouse

Background:
This gene encodes a secreted metalloproteinase which cleaves insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs). It is thought to be involved in local proliferative processes such as wound healing and bone remodeling. Low plasma level of this protein has been suggested as a biochemical marker for pregnancies with aneuploid fetuses.

Research Area: Cardiovascular, Cell biology
