Target data

Function

Downstream regulator in the Wnt/Frizzled-signaling pathway. Associated with cell survival. Attenuates p53-mediated apoptosis in response to DNA damage through activation of AKT kinase. Up-regulates the anti-apoptotic Bcl-X(L) protein. Adheres to skin and melanoma fibroblasts. In vitro binding to skin fibroblasts occurs through the proteoglycans, decorin and biglycan.

Activity summary

WISP1 also known as Wnt1 Inducible Signaling Pathway Protein 1 or CCN4 is a protein with significant roles in cellular processes. This protein has an approximate mass of 41 kDa. You can find its expression in various tissues including bone cartilage and vascular tissues. WISP1 belongs to the CCN family of proteins which are matricellular proteins that interact with different cell surface molecules and receptor systems to modulate cellular functions.

Biological function summary

WISP1 plays an important role in cellular proliferation differentiation and survival. It functions as a matricellular protein that can form complexes with integrins and other cell surface receptors. This interaction influences cellular responses to environmental signals. WISP1 contributes to extracellular matrix interaction and cellular adhesion. By regulating these processes WISP1 supports tissue development repair and regeneration.

Pathways

The network of interactions influenced by WISP1 impacts several key signaling pathways including the Wnt signaling pathway and the TGF-beta pathway. These pathways are important for regulating cell growth and differentiation. In connection with the Wnt pathway WISP1 interacts with proteins like beta-catenin which plays an important role in signal transduction and gene expression. These interactions help maintain proper cellular function and structural integrity.

Associated diseases and disorders

WISP1 shows links to cancer and fibrosis. Dysregulation of WISP1 expression and its related pathways can contribute to the development and progression of these conditions. In cancers WISP1 interacts with proteins like beta-catenin and contributes to the regulation of oncogenic processes such as tumor growth and metastasis. In fibrosis WISP1 influences the deposition of extracellular matrix proteins affecting tissue scarring and organ function.

    Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours.
    After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with ab178547 at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1/5000 for 1.5 hour at RT.
