Cell signaling hormone that is prominent in the prostate, and belongs to the insulin superfamily
Biochem/physiol Actions
Relaxin 1 may function in regulating blood pressure, controlling heart rate, and releasing oxytocin and vasopressin
Relaxin has been shown to have antifibrotic effects in renal fibroblasts through mechanisms that increase collagenase activity and via TGF-β signaling. [1]

Renal fibroblasts are important effector cells in tubulointerstitial fibrosis, with experimental antifibrotic strategies focusing on the functional down-regulation of these cells. Several experimental models of fibrosis have provided evidence for the effectiveness of the polypeptide hormone relaxin as a potential
