Introduction | Microfibrillar-associated protein 2 (MFAP2) is an O-glycosylated protein discharged to the extracellular space and the extracellular matrix. MFAP2 connects with biglycan and elastin in a ternary complex. MFAP2 plays a key role in the support and distensibility of the juxtacanalicular region of these collector channels. MFAP2 inhibits LTB-1 binding to fibrillin-1, promotes the phosphorylation of Smad2 thus mediating the consequent extracellular deposition of latent TGFbeta. |
Synonyms | Microfibrillar-associated protein 2, MFAP-2, Microfibril-associated glycoprotein 1, MAGP, MAGP-1, MFAP2, MAGP1. |
