    basic FUNCTION
  • multifunctional protein, stimulating proliferation of aortic smooth muscle cells and Ras effector pathways
  • erythroid potentiating and cell growth-promoting activities
  • involved in the regulation of bone modeling and remodeling in normal developing human bone
  • inhibits all MMPs, except MMP14
  • reducing tumor growth when it's overexpressed
  • antiapoptotic activity
  • naturally occurring specific inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases
  • inhibits MMP2 activity, protects against cell death and may be of significance in initiating repair processes and curtailing keratoconus
  • major serum factors that stimulate the induction of TIMP-1 mRNA in quiescent human gingival fibroblasts
  • survival factor of germinal center (GC) B cells functioning as a differentiating and survival factor of GC B cells by modulating CD44 and PTPN6 in the late centrocyte/post-GC stage, regardless of EBV infection
  • plays an important role in promoting cell growth of breast cancer
