Beschreibung

Allgemeine Beschreibung

Thrombospondins (TSPs) are a family of homotrimeric multi-domain glycoproteins involved in modulation of cell adhesion, proliferation, and migration and have been implicated clinically in the development of atherosclerosis, angiogenesis, and oncogenesis. TSP2, a member of the thrombospondin family is a secreted protein, but is present only transiently in extracellular matrix and is rapidly internalized for degradation by fibroblasts after binding to the cell surface. It also interacts with matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and matrix serine proteases, such as plasminogen activator. TSP2 is reportedly controls the apoptosis-proliferation balance in endothelial cells. Although TSP2 is a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis, its N-terminal region exhibits pro-angiogenic activities mediated by beta 1 integrins. Loss of TSP2 expression is associated with local invasive behavior, tumor neovascularization, and metastasis. Decreased TSP2 expression has been correlated with malignant progression and angiogenesis in some cancers. TSP2 levels are also highly expressed in developing and healing tissues.
