Biochem/physiol Actions
Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is involved in several developmental regulatory processes of chondrogenesis, osteogenesis, and angiogenesis. It also has implications in various pathologcal processes, including, fibrosis, and tumorigenesis. Its gene expression is sensitive to DNA methylation. The methylation of the CTGF promoter is correlated with CTGF expression in ovarian cancer cells and may be involved in liver tumorigenesis. Its C-terminal domain plays a vital role in the S1P (sphingosine-1-phosphate)-induced endothelial cell migration.
