ECM1 Recombinant Monoclonal Antibody for ELISA

ECM1, also referred to as extracellular matrix protein 1, is a protein that plays a significant role in regulating extracellular matrix organization and cell adhesion. It is expressed in various tissues, including the skin, lung, and liver, and is involved in the development and progression of several diseases, including cancer and dermatological disorders. The protein interacts with several extracellular matrix proteins, such as collagen and fibronectin, and is involved in the regulation of cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. ECM1 is also involved in endochondral bone formation, angiogenesis, and tumor biology. It interacts with various extracellular and structural proteins, contributing to the maintenance of skin integrity and homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with lipoid proteinosis disorder (also known as hyalinosis cutis et mucosae or Urbach-Wiethe disease) that is characterized by generalized thickening of skin, mucosae, and certain viscera. Different isoforms of ECM1 have been described in alternatively spliced transcript variants. Diseases associated with ECM1 include Lipoid Proteinosis Of Urbach And Wiethe and Lichen Sclerosus Et Atrophicus.
