AGT is produced primarily by the liver but also is synthesized in the brain, large arteries, kidneys and adipose tissue. In plasma it exists as a monomeric form (55-65 kDa) as well as a high molecular mass form (200-550 kDa). In non-pregnant individuals with normal blood pressure, the high molecular mass form accounts for 3% of total circulating AGT. In the first half of pregnancy the total AGT increases by 4-fold and the high molecular mass form increases by 20-fold. Up to 80% of the total AGT in amniotic fluid is the high molecular mass form.Angiotensinogen is an essential component of the renin-angiotensin system, a potent regulator of blood pressure, body fluid and electrolyte homeostasis. It functions as the substrate for human renin and is the precursor molecule for Angiotensins 1,2,3,4, 1-9, 1-7, 1-5 and 1-4. AGT is also a member of the SERPIN family but it is not known to possess protease-inhibitory activity. Levels in plasma are increased by plasma corticosteroid, estrogen, thyroid hormone and angiotensin-2 levels.

The extracellular region can be proteolytically shed fromPurity:>95%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Coomassie® Blue StainingDescription:NG2, also known as CSPG4, MCSP, and AN2, is a 400-500 kDa transmembrane chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (CSPG) with a protein core of approximately 300 kDa. The extracellular region can be proteolytically shed from the cell surface. Mature human NG2 consists of a 2195 amino acid (aa) extracellular domain (ECD), a 21 aa transmembrane segment, and a 77 aa cytoplasmic domain. Within aa 1583-2224, human NG2/CSPG4 shares 83% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat CSPG4. NG2 binds to the extracellular matrix proteins Laminin, Tenascin, and Collagens II, V, and VI as well as to the growth factors FGF-2 and PDGF-AA. NG2 is expressed on glial cell progenitors known as O2A cells or NG2 glia. These cells are neuronally responsive and differentiate primarily into oligodendrocytes but also into astrocytes. NG2 associates with PDGF R alpha and the AMPA R subunit GluR2. It is up-regulated on microglial cells during inflammation and contributes to the induction of inflammatory mediators. Various CSPGs in the brain inhibit neurite outgrowth through interactions with Nogo Receptor/NgR1 and NgR3. This recombinant protein product corresponds to the last 5 CSPG repeats, a region which can independently inhibit neurite outgrowth. NG2 is also expressed on vascular mural cells and capillaries. It promotes vascular endothelial cell (EC) migration and angiogenesis through interactions with Galectin-3 and Integrin alpha 3 beta 1 on EC, Plasminogen, and Angiostatin. NG2 is also expressed on a variety of tumors where it contributes to tumor cell adhesion, motility, and invasion... Read More |
