Abstract excerpt
AMIGO-1 is the parent member of a novel family of three cell surface leucine-rich repeat (LRR) proteins. Its expression is induced by the binding of HMGB1 (high-mobility group box 1 protein) to RAGE (receptor for advanced glycation end products) on neurons. Binding of HMGB1 to RAGE is known to have a direct effect on cellular growth regulation and mobility, and AMIGO-1 directly supports growth of neuronal...
