Usage
For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.
Hormone that acts as a regulator of dendritic growth in the developing cerebral cortex in response to sensory experience. Induced in the brain following membrane depolarization and inhibits dendritic branching in neurons of the developing cortex. Probably acts by binding to natriuretic peptide receptor NPR3/NPR-C, thereby preventing binding between NPR3/NPR-C and natriuretic peptides, leading to increase cGMP production.

The circulating concentration of musclin was significantly increased in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Results suggest that musclin has a strong relationship with insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes mellitus.PMID:28185530
findings suggest that, in response to sensory input, OSTN regulates features of neuronal structure and function that are unique to primatesPMID:27830782
osteocrin represents a novel, unique vitamin D-regulated bone-specific protein that appears to act as a soluble osteoblast regulatorPMID:14523025
Foxo1 downregulates musclin mRNA expression both in vitro and in vivo, which should explain insulin-mediated upregulation of this gene in muscle cells.PMID:17950246
Ostn is a naturally occurring ligand of the NPR-C clearance receptor and may act to locally modulate the actions of the natriuretic system in bone by blocking the clearance action of NPR-C, thus locally elevating levels of C-type natriuretic peptide.PMID:17951249
