PPBP Polyclonal Antibody

PPBP (Pro-Platelet Basic Protein) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with PPBP include Erythromelalgia and Colloid Adenoma. Among its related pathways are GPCR Pathway and Peptide ligand-binding receptors. GO annotations related to this gene include growth factor activity and glucose transmembrane transporter activity. An important paralog of this gene is CXCL1. The protein encoded by this gene is a platelet-derived growth factor that belongs to the CXC chemokine family. This growth factor is a potent chemoattractant and activator of neutrophils. It has been shown to stimulate various cellular processes including DNA synthesis, mitosis, glycolysis, intracellular cAMP accumulation, prostaglandin E2 secretion, and synthesis of hyaluronic acid and sulfated glycosaminoglycan. It also stimulates the formation and secretion of plasminogen activator by synovial cells. The protein also is an antimicrobial protein with bactericidal and antifungal activity.
