Periostin (POSTN) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody [Clone ID: LBI1A1]
Product Specifications
Background
Periostin is a disulfide linked 90 kDa, 811 amino acid protein originally isolated as a osteoblast-specific factor that functions as a cell adhesion molecule for preosteoblasts and is thought to be involved in osteoblast recruitment, attachment and spreading. Additionally, periostin expression has previously been shown to be significantly increased by both transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF beta 1) and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP2) . Periostin mRNA is expressed in the developing mouse embryonic and fetal heart, and that it is localized to the endocardial cushions that ultimately divide the primitive heart tube into a four-chambered heart. Abnormal expression of periostin is also linked to angiogenesis and metastatsis in epithelial tumors.
