ENPP 2 ( ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase / phosphodiesterase 2 )
نویسندگان
چکیده
The mRNA for ENPP2 is 3276 bp with exon 12 and 3120 bp without it. The ENPP2 promoter is reported to have four SP1 sites as well as binding sites for NFAT and NF-kappaB but no TATA or CAAT boxes. The only transcription factor that has been proven to increase ENPP2 protein expression is NFATC2/NFAT1, after release of alpha6beta4 from hemidesmosomes in a breast cancer cell line. A number of growth factors have been found to stimulate ENPP2 protein expression, while several inflammatory cytokines have been reported to inhibit expression.

Role of ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 2 in the midline axis formation of zebrafish
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a unique bioactive lysophospholipid that induces pleiotropic effects in various cell types and organisms by acting on its specific receptors. LPA is mainly synthetised extracellularly by the ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 2/autotaxin (enpp2). Altered LPA signalling is associated with embryonic abnormalities, suggesting critical roles for LPA duri...
