SFRP2
Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Secreted frizzled-related protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SFRP2 gene .[ 5] [ 6]
This gene encodes a member of the SFRP family that contains a cysteine -rich domain homologous to the putative Wnt-binding site of Frizzled proteins. SFRPs act as soluble modulators of Wnt signaling . Methylation of this gene is a potential marker for the presence of colorectal cancer .[ 6]
New cardiomyocytes can be regenerated in the mouse heart via Sfrp2 and this may lead to treatment of heart injury [1] .
Cancer
SFRP2 gene has been detected progressively overexpressed in Human papillomavirus -positive neoplastic keratinocytes derived from uterine cervical preneoplastic lesions at different levels of malignancy.[ 7] For this reason, this gene is likely to be associated with tumorigenesis and may be a potential prognostic marker for uterine cervical preneoplastic lesions progression.[ 7]
