Protein NDNF (Neuron-derived neurotrophic factor)
SynonymsUNQ2748/PRO6487
C4orf31
DescriptionFUNCTION: Secretory protein that plays a role in various cellular processes . Acts as a chemorepellent acting on gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) expressing neurons regulating their migration to the hypothalamus . Also promotes neuron migration, growth and survival as well as neurite outgrowth and is involved in the development of the olfactory system . May also act through the regulation of growth factors activity and downstream signaling . Also regulates extracellular matrix assembly and cell adhesiveness (By similarity). Promotes endothelial cell survival, vessel formation and plays an important role in the process of revascularization through NOS3-dependent mechanisms . .
