Anti-IGFBP1 antibody,Abcam,AB228741

Target data Multifunctional protein that plays a critical role in regulating the availability of IGFs such as IGF1 and IGF2 to their receptors and thereby regulates IGF-mediated cellular processes including cell migration, proliferation, differentiation or apoptosis in a cell-type specific manner (PubMed : 11397844, PubMed : 15972819). Plays also a positive role in cell migration by interacting with integrin ITGA5 : ITGB1 through its RGD motif (PubMed : 7504269). Mechanistically, binding to integrins leads to activation of focal adhesion kinase/PTK2 and stimulation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway (PubMed : 11397844). Regulates cardiomyocyte apoptosis by suppressing HIF-1alpha/HIF1A ubiquitination and subsequent degradation (By similarity). See full target information IGFBP1
