Background
Serpin F1, also known as Pigment Epithelium-Derived Factor (PEDF) or Cell Proliferation-Inducing Gene 35 Protein (PIG35), is a multifunctional protein that belongs to the serpin family. This family of proteins is characterized by their highly conserved core structure, which is critical for their function as serine protease inhibitors. Serpin F1 is secreted and has been shown to strongly inhibit angiogenesis, making it a potent inhibitor of blood vessel growth. It also has anti-tumor and neurotrophic functions, playing a significant role in various biological processes including cell differentiation, tumor suppression, and neuronal protection. Serpin F1 is expressed in quiescent cells and has been implicated in the regulation of gene expression and cellular proliferation.
