Amniotic fluid MDK concentrations.
Panel A: AF MDK concentrations (n = 202) declined with gestational age. Panel B: AF MDK concentrations were not significantly different between healthy term pregnancies in the absence of labor and during labor or between pregnancies complicated by PPROM ...

The Growth Factor Midkine Antagonizes VEGF Signaling In Vitro and In Vivo
Midkine (MDK) is a heparin-binding growth factor involved in growth, survival, migration, and differentiation of various target cells and dysregulation of MDK signaling is implicated in a variety of inflammatory diseases and cancers.

Plasma midkine (MDK) concentrations in healthy children.
Plasma was obtained from healthy, non-obese children younger than 18 years (n = 222) from the United States or South Korea. Plasma midkine concentration was measured by sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

Midkine and Pleiotrophin Concentrations in Amniotic Fluid in Healthy and Complicated Pregnancies. [PDF]
Midkine (MDK) and pleiotrophin (PTN) are heparin-binding growth factors that, in rodents, are highly expressed in early life and decrease to undetectable levels by adulthood.

USP12 promotes breast cancer angiogenesis by maintaining midkine stability
Deubiquitinases (DUBs) have important biological functions, but their roles in breast cancer metastasis are not completely clear. In this study, through screening a series of DUBs related to breast cancer distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) in the ...

Heparin-stripping of MDK and PTN from amniotic fluid.
Assay specificity was assessed by removing both MDK and PTN from AF with heparin-Sepharose beads. ELISA signals for both MDK (Panel A) and PTN (Panel B) were abolished after treatment.
