POSTN Polyclonal Antibody

Rabbit Anti-POSTN Polyclonal Antibody

Product Specifications

Background

POSTN encodes a secreted extracellular matrix protein that functions in tissue development and regeneration, including wound healing, and ventricular remodeling following myocardial infarction. The encoded protein binds to integrins to support adhesion and migration of epithelial cells. This protein POSTN plays a role in cancer stem cell maintenance and metastasis. Mice lacking POSTN exhibit cardiac valve disease, and skeletal and dental defects. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
