Background

Pleiotrophin is a secreted growth factor that induces neurite outgrowth being mitogenic for fibroblasts, epithelial, and endothelial cells. It binds anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) inducing MAPK pathway activation, as an important step in the anti-apoptotic signaling of PTN and cell proliferation (PMID:1768439; 1733956; 11278720)
