Background
Secreted frizzled-related protein 4 (SFRP4) is 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. The expression of SFRP4 in ventricular myocardium correlates with apoptosis related gene expression. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function
disease:Associated with tumor-induced osteomalacia, a disorder in which there is an increase in renal phosphate excretion and a reduction in serum phosphate levels leading to hyperphosphaturia, hypophosphatemia and rickets.,domain:The FZ domain is involved in binding with Wnt ligands.,function:Soluble frizzled-related proteins (sFRPS) function as modulators of Wnt signaling through direct interaction with Wnts. They have a role in regulating cell growth and differentiation in specific cell types. SFRP4 may act as a regulator of adult uterine morphology and function. Increases apoptosis during ovulation possibly through modulation of FZ1/FZ4/WNT4 signaling (By similarity). Has phosphaturic effects by specifically inhibiting sodium-dependent phosphate uptake.,induction:Increased levels in failing myocardium. Up-regulated in several tumor types including ostomalacia-associated tumors and en
