Description

HRG, also known as Histidine-rich glycoprotein, is a 525 amino acid protein that is approx. 60 kDa, functions as plasma glycoprotein that binds a number of ligands such as heme, heparin, heparan sulfate, thrombospondin, plasminogen, and divalent metal ions; acts as an adapter protein; mediates clearance of necrotic cells; inhibits the formation of insoluble immune complexes; ties plasminogen to the cell surface; binds T-cells and alters the cell morphology; modulates angiogenesis; inhibits endothelial cell motility; plays a role in the regulation of tumor angiogenesis and tumor immune surveillance; and normalizes tumor vessels and promotes antitumor immunity by polarizing tumor-associated macrophages. Studies on this protein have shown a relationship with thrombophilia, thrombophilia due to elevated hrg, thrombophilia due to hrg deficiency, protein c deficiency, myocardial infarction, acute myocardial infarction, corneal neovascularization, thrombosis, rheumatoid arthritis, hyperhomocysteinemia, arthritis, retinal vein occlusion, graft versus host disease, nephrotic syndrome, diabetes mellitus, cd3, twinning, retinitis, and hepatitis b. This protein has been shown to have interactions with C1QB, FGA, C1QA, FCGR1A, PLG, and THBS1 in the hemostasis, platelet degranulation, dissolution of fibrin clot, platelet activation, signaling and aggregation, and response to elevated platelet cytosolic Ca2+ pathways.
