Expression patterns of follistatin and two follistatin-related proteins during mouse development [PDF]
We compared the expression patterns of follistatin and two follistatin-related proteins (FRP and m7365) during early mouse development. m7365 is expressed continuously during preimplantation development, in contrast to FRP and follistatin. At early postimplantation stages, follistatin and 7365 are expressed from E6.0, while FRP is detected from E7.5 ...

Differential expression of follistatin and FLRG in human breast proliferative disorders [PDF]
Background Activins are growth factors acting on cell growth and differentiation. Activins are expressed in high grade breast tumors and they display an antiproliferative effect inducing G0/G1 cell cycle arrest in breast cancer cell lines.

Characterization of a Rat C6 Glioma‐Secreted Follistatin‐Related Protein (FRP) [PDF]
A protein was isolated from rat C6 glioma‐conditioned medium and was biochemically characterized. The heparin‐binding protein has a native molecular mass of 55–75000Da, a molecular mass of 40–48000 Da under denaturing conditions, and a pI of 5.0–6.0. Based on the determined partial amino acid sequences, the full lenght cDNA encoding the rat and human ...

Maternal Serum Activin A, Inhibin A and Follistatin-Related Proteins across Preeclampsia: Insights into Their Role in Pathogenesis and Prediction. [PDF]
Within the endocrine-paracrine signalling network at the maternal-foetal interface, the activin-inhibin-follistatin system modulates extravillous trophoblast invasion, suggesting a potential role in preeclampsia pathogenesis. This study aimed to compile the evidence published in the last decade regarding the variation in maternal serum activins ...

Evaluation of Associations of Growth Differentiation Factor-11, Growth Differentiation Factor-8, and Their Binding Proteins, Follistatin and Follistatin-Like Protein-3, With Measures of Skeletal Muscle Mass, Muscle Strength, and Physical Function in Older Adults. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Based on studies from animal models, growth differentiation factor-11 (GDF-11) may have rejuvenating effects in humans. GDF-11 has high sequence homology with GDF-8 (also known as myostatin); follistatin and follistatin-like protein-3 (FSTL-3)

CHIN117 is a dual cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 (CYSLTR1) antagonist and G‐protein‐coupled bile acid receptor 1 (GPBAR1) agonist. In the liver, GPBAR1 and CYSLTR1 are coexpressed by liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs), HSCs, circulating monocytes/macrophages, and liver resident macrophages (Kupffer cells).

Follistatin-Related Protein and Follistatin Differentially Neutralize Endogenous vs. Exogenous Activin [PDF]
Follistatin-related protein (FSRP) is a new addition to the expanding follistatin (FS)-related gene family whose members contain at least one conserved 10-cysteine follistatin domain. In contrast to other members of this family, FSRP and follistatin also share a common exon/intron domain structure, substantial primary sequence homology, and an ability ...

Cloning of follistatin-related protein as a novel autoantigen in systemic rheumatic diseases [PDF]
In an attempt to identify autoantigens of synovium in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), we constructed lambda phage expression cDNA libraries from synovium and screened them by IgG purified from synovial fluids, both of which were derived from RA patients.
