Follistatin-related protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FSTL1 gene.[1][2][3]

Structure

This gene encodes a protein with similarity to follistatin, an BMP-4-binding protein.[4] It binds to BMP-4 and TGF-β1, but not Activin A.[4] It contains an FS module (a follistatin-like sequence containing 10 conserved cysteine residues), a Kazal-type serine protease inhibitor domain, 2 EF hand domains, and a Von Willebrand factor type C domain.[3]

Clinical significance

Development

FSTL1 has a role in development,[5][6] such as lung development,[4][7] ureter development,[8] central nervous system development,[9] and skeletal development.[7]

Arthritis

This gene product is thought to be an autoantigen associated with rheumatoid arthritis.[3]

FSTL1 up-regulates proinflammatory mediators important in the pathology of arthritis, and serum levels of FSTL1 correlate with severity of arthritis.[10][11][12]

Cardiovascular diseases

FSTL1 protein seems to have a cardioprotective role. FSTL1 attenuated hypertrophy following pressure overload[13] and prevented myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury in a mouse or pig model of ischemia/reperfusion.[14] Muscle-derived Fstl1 modulates vascular remodelling in response to injury.[15]
