WISP1 Antibody

• Description:

  WNT1-Inducible Signaling Pathway Protein 1, also known as CCN4, is a matricellular protein that in humans is encoded by the WISP1 gene. It is induced by WNT1 and belongs to the CCN family, which includes connective tissue growth factor, cysteine-rich-61, and nephroblastoma overexpressed (Tanaka et al., 2001) . By use of radiation hybrid mapping panels, Pennica et al. (1998) mapped the gene to chromosome 8q24.1-q24.3, roughly 4 Mb distal to MYC. Pennica et al. (1998) found that two distinct systems demonstrated that WISP1 induction was associated with expression of WNT1. WISP1 genomic DNA was amplified in colon cancer cell lines and in human colon tumors, and its RNA was overexpressed in 84% of tumors examined compared with patient-matched normal mucosa.
