Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** Neudesin is a secreted protein that belongs to the neurotrophic factor family, which is characterized by its ability to promote cell growth, differentiation, and survival. NENF is primarily expressed in fibroblasts of mammary glands, progenitor cells of mammary luminal epithelium, and other specialized cell types in various organs, such as the kidney, ovary, lung, and prostate. The expression of NENF is tightly regulated, and its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, including cancer and metabolic disorders. **Pathways and Functions:** NENF exerts its effects through various signaling pathways, including the MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) cascade, which is a key regulator of cell growth, differentiation, and survival. NENF also interacts with other growth factors, such as insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), to modulate its effects on cell proliferation and differentiation. In addition, NENF has been shown to regulate the expression of genes involved in cell adhesion, migration, and apoptosis. The functions of NENF are diverse and tissue-specific, with roles in regulating: 1. Cell growth and differentiation in mammary glands and other tissues 2. Regulation of appetite and energy homeostasis 3. Maintenance of epithelial barrier function in the kidney and lung 4. Regulation of ovarian follicular development and ovulation 5. Modulation of immune responses and inflammation **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of NENF has been implicated in various human diseases, including: 1. **Breast cancer**: Elevated expression of NENF has been observed in breast cancer tissues, suggesting a potential role in tumorigenesis and metastasis. 2. **Metabolic disorders**: NENF has been shown to regulate glucose and lipid metabolism, and its dysregulation may contribute to the development of metabolic disorders, such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. 3. **Kidney disease**: NENF has been implicated in the regulation of kidney function and fibrosis, and its dysregulation may contribute to the progression of kidney disease. 4. **Ovarian cancer**: NENF has been shown to regulate ovarian follicular development and ovulation, and its dysregulation may contribute to the development of ovarian cancer. In conclusion, neudesin (NENF) is a multifunctional growth factor that plays a crucial role in regulating various physiological processes, including growth, development, and maintenance of different cell types. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various human diseases, highlighting the importance of further research into the molecular mechanisms underlying NENF's functions and its role in human disease.
