Intérêt clinique
Intended use:
Dickkopf-1(DKK-1) is a 28.67 kDa secreted protein that acts as soluble inhibitor of the WNT signalling pathway. This pathway contains lipid-modified glycoproteins that activate cell surface receptor-mediated signal transduction to regulate cell activities like: cell fate, proliferation, migration, polarity and gene expression.
DKK-1 regulates developmental processes of all kinds. Thus, DKK-1 is also involved in the regulation of bone metabolism as it effects osteoblast differentiation and in regulation of tumourgenetic activity.
Intended applications:
Atherosclerosis
Rheumatoid arthritis
Myeloma bone disease
Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis
Ankylosing spondylitis
Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance
Glucocorticoid induced osteoporosis
