Background Information
Pentraxin 3 (PTX3), also known as TNF-inducible gene 14 protein (TSG-14), is a member of the pentraxin superfamily which consists of evolutionarily conserved proteins characterized by a structural motif99, the pentraxin domain (PMID: 15771574). Pentraxin 3 can be produced by a variety of cell types including endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, adipocytes, fibroblasts, mononuclear phagocytes, and dendritic cells, and its expression is induced by primary inflammatory signals, such as IL-1, TNF, and microbial moieties (PMID: 15771574). Pentraxin 3 is an acute-phase glycoprotein that plays a role in regulating innate resistance to pathogens, inflammation, tissue remodeling and repair, female fertility, and cancer (PMID: 29412047). Pentraxin 3 is a biomarker for cardiovascular disease (PMID: 22347626). Increased plasma Pentraxin 3 levels have been found in patients with cardiovascular disorders (PMID: 22347626; 31057548). In WB, there're two major bands, an upper signal at 80-86 kDa and a lower signal at 42 kDa, representing Pentraxin 3 dimers and monomers, respectively (PMID: 18223257).
