詳細
Fibronectin (FN) is an extracellular matrix protein composed of two nearly-identical disulfide-bound polypeptides with typical molecular weights of 220-280 kDa. Cellular fibronectin is structurally and antigenically similar to cold insoluble globulin from plasma and antibodies to either form usually cross-react. Careful analysis of the FN molecule indicates that it contains several functionally and structurally distinct domains which may bind to cell surfaces and to a variety of molecules such as collagen, heparin, gelatin, fibrin and DNA. FN′s play an important role in diverse biological phenomena including cell adhesion, cell migration, hemostasis and thrombosis, wound healing and the ability to induce a more normal phenotype in transformed cells.
Monoclonal Anti-Human Fibronectin (mouse IgG1 iso-type) is derived from the IST-3 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c immunized mice. Fibronectin (FN) is a multifunctional extracellular matrix protein comprising two nearly-identical disulfide-bound polypeptides. It is an adhesive glycoprotein. FN belongs to the ligand glycoprotein family and is is expressed in various cell types. Human fibronectin consists of five distinct domains that are referred to as heparin (Hep)-1/ fibrin (Fib)-1, gelatin (Gel), cell surface (Cell), Hep-2 and Fib-2, based on their affinity for Hep, Gel, Cell or Fib. The FN gene is mapped to human chromosome location 2q35.

生物化学的/生理学的作用
Fibronectin (FN) binds to cell surfaces and a variety of molecules, such as collagen, heparin, gelatin, fibrin, and DNA. It plays an important role in diverse biological phenomena including cell adhesion, cell migration, hemostasis, and thrombosis. FN is also involved in wound healing and stimulates a normal phenotype in transformed cells. Upregulation of FN leads to tumors, such as nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), ovarian cancer, and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
