Prognosis of Midkine and AT1R expression in resectable head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
Background Research studies have demonstrated that Midkine (MDK) can influence the expression and activity of Renin-angiotensin system (RAS) components. Angiotensin II is involved in tumor growth and angiogenesis in different cancers.

Midkine promotes glioblastoma progression via PI3K-Akt signaling
Background Our previous bioinformatics-based study found that midkine (MDK) was associated with poor prognosis of glioblastoma (GBM). However, the mechanism of MDK in GBM remains elusive.

Midkine-deficiency delays chondrogenesis during the early phase of fracture healing in mice. [PDF]
The growth and differentiation factor midkine (Mdk) plays an important role in bone development and remodeling. Mdk-deficient mice display a high bone mass phenotype when aged 12 and 18 months. Furthermore, Mdk has been identified as a negative regulator

Inhibition of the growth factor MDK/midkine by a novel small molecule compound to treat non-small cell lung cancer. [PDF]
Midkine (MDK) is a heparin-binding growth factor that is highly expressed in many malignant tumors, including lung cancers. MDK activates the PI3K pathway and induces anti-apoptotic activity, in turn enhancing the survival of tumors.
