Variant & Polymorphism
Candidate gene
  • EPPIN-FN1 complex may involve in semen coagulation, liquefaction and the survival and preparation of spermatozoa for fertility in the female reproductive tract
  • Marker
  • FN1 mRNA expression might serve as a marker for renal cell cancer (RCC) aggressiveness, indicating early systemic progression particularly for patients with papillary RCC
  • serum- and CSF-FN1 levels constitute a potential clinical diagnostic biomarker for epilepsy and could also be used for differential diagnosis
  • Therapy target
