Target Information
Bovine apha-2-HS-glycoprotein, also known as Fetuin-A, is a serum protein belonging to the cystatin superfamily. It is synthesized primarily by hepatocytes and is considered a negative acute-phase reactant. This protein is involved in endocytosis, brain development, bone resorption, and the regulation of insulin activity and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) activity. It also acts as a carrier for insoluble calcium phosphate and inhibits pathological vascular calcification.
