Summary: Predicted to enable platelet-derived growth factor receptor binding activity and protein homodimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including platelet-derived growth factor receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of cold-induced thermogenesis; and positive regulation of intracellular signal transduction. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to amino acid stimulus; positive regulation of fibroblast proliferation; and regulation of protein phosphorylation. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cell surface; cytosol; and extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Orthologous to human PDGFC (platelet derived growth factor C). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
Expression: Biased expression in Kidney (RPKM 82.2), Adrenal (RPKM 81.7) and 9 other tissues See more

Mesenchymal stem cells could inhibit the process of chronic rejection of small intestine transplant. The mechanisms may include the inhibited function of these cells on lymphocyte proliferation, reduced infiltration of macrophages, and reduced expression of transforming growth factor beta1 and platelet-derived growth factor C.

After experimental liver fibrosis, induced by bile-duct occlusion, miR-29 expression was shown to be reduced, but IGF-I and PDGF-C expression was upregulated, correlating inversely to the miR-29 pattern.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
