Distinct expression of C1q‐like family mRNAs in mouse brain and biochemical characterization of their encoded proteins
26 Apr 2010
Abstract excerpt
Many members of the C1q family, including complement C1q and adiponectin, and the structurally related tumor necrosis factor family are secreted and play crucial roles in intercellular signaling. Among them, the Cbln (precerebellin) and C1q-like (C1ql) subfamilies are highly and predominantly expressed in the central nervous system. Although the Cbln subfamily serve as essential trans-neuronal regulators of...
