Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - It is a glycoprotein with a molecular weight of approximately 120 kDa. - It is expressed in high levels in the placenta, decidua, and other sites in the female reproductive tract. - It is also expressed in low levels in the male reproductive tract. **Pathways and functions:** - PSG2 is a key component of the cell surface adhesion molecule (CAM) family of proteins. - It is involved in cell migration, cell surface interactions at the vascular wall, and cellular communication. - It is expressed on the surface of a variety of cells in the female reproductive tract, including amacrine cells, retinal cone cells, blood vessel endothelial cells, trophoblast giant cells, neural progenitor cells, B cells, goblet cells, cerebral cortex GABAergic interneurons, forebrain radial glial cells, and absorptive cells. - PSG2 is thought to play a role in maintaining the integrity of the female reproductive tract by regulating cell-cell adhesion and migration. **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in the PSG2 gene have been linked to a number of human diseases, including infertility, miscarriage, and preterm labor. - PSG2 is a potential therapeutic target for these diseases. - By blocking PSG2 signaling, it is possible to inhibit cell migration and cell adhesion, which may lead to the prevention of cancer and other diseases that are caused by abnormal cell behavior.
