| Description | Extinction Coefficient: 0.70 In normal plasma LRG1 has a concentration of 21-50 ug/ml. It is an acute phase protein with levels elevated in patients with bacterial infections; interestingly, during the inflammatory response, LRG1 levels are not correlated with CRP levels.

It is an acute phase protein with levels elevated in patients with bacterial infections; interestingly, during the inflammatory response, LRG1 levels are not correlated with CRP levels. LRG1 binds cytochrome c, an initiator/amplifier of programmed cell death (apoptosis), and by binding cytochrome c, is thought to play a role in cell survival. LRG1 is a biomarker associated with several cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer, colorectal cancer, and pancreatic cancer. Recent studies have shown it is three-fold more abundant in ovarian cancer serum compared to non-cancer control serum. LRG1 levels are only moderately correlated with CA125 levels. Elevated levels of LRG1 in cerebral spinal fluid are being studied as markers for the early diagnosis of Parkinson's disease and progressive supranuclear palsy...

(1989) from the culture supernatant of embryonic lung fibroblasts, which is a member of the FGF family, namely FGF-7. KGF is an effective epithelial-specific growth factor secreted by mesenchymal cells and distributed in epithelialKeratinocyte growth factor (KGF) is a cytokine found by Rubin et al. (1989) from the culture supernatant of embryonic lung fibroblasts, which is a member of the FGF family, namely FGF-7. KGF is an effective epithelial-specific growth factor secreted by mesenchymal cells and distributed in epithelial cells. Its mitotic activity is mainly manifested in keratinocytes, which can specifically promote the proliferation, migration and differentiation of epithelial cells. It is closely related to organ development, wound repair, tumor genesis and immune reconstruction.Activity definition: The ED50 value is less than 1.0 ng/ml, that is, the corresponding activity unit is greater than or equal to 1 x 10*6 units/mg, as determined by the proliferation method of cultured MCF-7 cells...
