CC -!- FUNCTION: Growth factor that plays an essential role in the regulation
CC of embryonic development, cell proliferation, cell migration, survival
CC and chemotaxis. Potent mitogen and chemoattractant for cells of
CC mesenchymal origin. Required for normal skeleton formation during
CC embryonic development, especially for normal development of the
CC craniofacial skeleton and for normal development of the palate.
CC Required for normal skin morphogenesis during embryonic development.
CC Plays an important role in wound healing, where it appears to be
CC involved in three stages: inflammation, proliferation and remodeling.
CC Plays an important role in angiogenesis and blood vessel development.
CC Involved in fibrotic processes, in which transformation of interstitial
CC fibroblasts into myofibroblasts plus collagen deposition occurs. The
CC CUB domain has mitogenic activity in coronary artery smooth muscle
CC cells, suggesting a role beyond the maintenance of the latency of the
CC PDGF domain. In the nucleus, PDGFC seems to have additional function
CC (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer; disulfide-linked. Interacts with PDGFRA homodimers,
CC and with heterodimers formed by PDGFRA and PDGFRB. Interacts (via CUB
CC domain) with PLAT (via kringle domain) (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm, cytosol
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9NRA1}. Secreted
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9NRA1}. Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9NRA1}.
CC Cytoplasmic granule {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9NRA1}. Cell membrane
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9NRA1}. Note=Sumoylated form is predominant in
CC the nucleus. Stored in alpha granules in platelets.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9NRA1}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Highly expressed in the kidney and adrenal gland.
CC In the kidney, it is expressed in arteriolar smooth muscle cells and in
CC epithelial cells of individual segments (at protein level).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11850188, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11912250}.
CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expressed in the floor plate of the spinal cord at
CC E11 and also in the ventricular zone at E16, but not in adult. In the
CC brain, expression is more significant at E16 than at adult, with high
CC expression in the cortex, pontine area and choroid plexus. Detected in
CC the otocyst at E16. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11850188,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:15267171, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18272536}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: Up-regulated in mesangial, visceral epithelial, and
CC interstitial cells after predominant injury to these cells. Expression
CC levels increase in hepatic cells undergoing in vitro
CC transdifferentiation, which represents a model for hepatic
CC fibrogenesis. Expression induced by indoxyl sulfate. Expression induced
CC by angiotensin-2 via EGR1 in smooth muscle cells in neonatal but not in
CC adult rats. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11912250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16039137,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:16612331}.
CC -!- PTM: Proteolytic removal of the N-terminal CUB domain releasing the
CC core domain is necessary for unmasking the receptor-binding epitopes of
CC the core domain. Cleavage after basic residues in the hinge region
CC (region connecting the CUB and growth factor domains) gives rise to the
CC receptor-binding form. Cleaved by PLAT and PLG (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- PTM: Sumoylated with SUMO1. {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- PTM: N-glycosylated. {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
