Research Area : Others
Restriction : For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures, drug use, or for administration to humans or animals.
Relevance : Appears to modulate osteoblastic differentiation. Could also function as an autocrine and paracrine factor linked to glucose metabolism in skeletal muscle
Function : Hormone that acts as a ligand for natriuretic peptide receptor NPR3/NPR-C and promotes bone growth and physical endurance in muscle. Acts as a regulator of osteoblast differentiation and bone growth by binding to natriuretic peptide receptor NPR3/NPR-C, thereby preventing binding between NPR3/NPR-C and natriuretic peptides, leading to increase cGMP production. Required to enhance physical endurance
Involvement in disease :
Subcellular location : Secreted
Protein Families : Osteocrin family
Tissue Specificity : Highly expressed in skeletal muscle (PubMed:15044443). Also expressed in leg tendons/ligaments and osteoblasts (PubMed:17951249). In long bones and teeth, present in knee joint and periodontal ligaments (at protein level) (PubMed:17951249).
