Serpin F1 is a multifunctional protein that is synthesized by multiple cell types and is expressed in many tissues including the retinal pigment epithelium, liver, bone, connective, heart, and adipose tissues (1, 3, 5, 7, 8). It has been shown to bind to several different cell surface molecules including the PEDF Receptor, Laminin Receptor, LRP-6, and the F1 ATP Synthase (5, 9-13). It also has binding affinity for several extracellular matrix components, such as Heparin, Heparin Sulphate, Hyaluronan, and Collagens (5, 3). It is believed that the multiple and varied biological activities attributed to Serpin F1 are due to its interactions with these different cell surface molecules. Serpin F1 has been shown to be involved in neurogenesis, neuronal cell survival, angiogenesis, tumorgenesis, stem cell survival and multipotency, and inflammation (2-5, 10, 12-15). In humans, Serpin F1 has been suggested to play a role in choroidal neovascularization, obesity and insulin resistance, cardiovascular disease, osteogenesis imperfecta, and cancer (3-5, 15-19).
