MeSH Heading: CCN Intercellular Signaling Proteins
Tree Number(s): D12.644.276.200; D12.776.467.200; D12.776.860.300.200; D23.529.237
Unique ID: D055511
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D055511
Scope Note: A family of secreted proteins found associated with the EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX and cell surface receptors. They are believed to play a role in modulating the effects of a variety of GROWTH FACTORS and PROTEASES at the cell membrane extracellular matrix. The CCN protein family is named after three protypical members; CYSTEINE-RICH PROTEIN 61; CONNECTIVE TISSUE GROWTH FACTOR; and NEPHROBLASTOMA OVEREXPRESSED PROTEIN.
Entry Term(s): CCN Family Proteins; CYR61 CTGF NOV Matricellular Proteins; Matricellular CCN Proteins
