Cellular Communication Network Factor 2 mRNA (CCN2 mRNA)

Target
CCN2 mRNA
Molecular classification
mRNA
01

Overview

CCN2 messenger RNA (mRNA) encodes the protein known as cellular communication network factor 2, also widely referred to as connective tissue growth factor (CTGF). Overexpression of CCN2 mRNA/protein is associated with pathological fibrosis in various organs.
