Function | Developmentally regulated, secreted growth factor homologous to pleiotrophin (PTN), which has heparin binding activity. Binds anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) which induces ALK activation and subsequent phosphorylation of the insulin receptor substrate (IRS1), followed by the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and PI3-kinase, and the induction of cell proliferation. Involved in neointima formation after arterial injury, possibly by mediating leukocyte recruitment. Also involved in early fetal adrenal gland development (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. |
Subcellular Location | Secreted. |
Tissue Specificity | Expressed in various tumor cell lines. In insulinoma tissue predominantly expressed in precancerous lesions. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17379400}. |
