Disease relevance of ADAMTS14

 

High impact information on ADAMTS14

  • Although Adamts14 lacked developmental tissue-specific expression, it was co-expressed with Adamts2 in mature dermis, which possibly explains the presence of some processed skin procollagen in dermatosparaxis [2].
  • The tissue distribution of ADAMTS-14, the regulation of the gene expression by various cytokines and the activity of the recombinant enzyme are evaluated [3].
  • These findings suggest a potentially important role for the ADAMTS14 gene in predisposition to MS [1].
  • We cloned and characterized a novel human ADAMTS gene, ADAMTS14, which is located on human chromosome 10q2 [4].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of ADAMTS14

  • By RT-PCR analysis we demonstrated that ADAMTS14 is expressed in human retina and also at low levels in adult brain, lung and placenta [4].
