Description
Lumican is a glycoprotein of 338 amino acids, which is a member of small leucine-rich proteoglycan (SLRP) family. This glycoprotein has small core proteins of approximately 40 kD and the core protein contains a central region of leucine-rich repeats flanked on either side by a disulfide-bonded domain. The central region of the molecule possesses four asparagine residues capable of participating in N-linked glycosylation, which regulates the assembly and diameter of collagen fibers. Lumican has an important role for such as cell proliferation, cell migration and cell adhesion. Recently, lumican overexpression has been reported in various cancer tissues, such as carcinoid tumor, breast, colorectal, neuroendocrine cell, uterine cervical, lung and pancreatic cancers.
