Endothelial Cell-Specific Molecule 1 (ESM1) (AA 20-184) protein (His tag)
Description
ESM-1, short from Endothelial cell-specific molecule 1, is expressed in lung, on the vascular capillary network within alveolar walls, and also at lower level in kidney. It is a secretory protein, and can be inducted by TNF and IL1B/interleukin-1beta, but not IL4/interleukin-4. This protein plays great roles in angiogenesis, sprouting, and may have potent implications in lung endothelial cell-leukocyte interactions.Alternative Names: Endothelial Cell-Specific Molecule 1, ESM-1, ESM1
