Recombinant Human Melanoma Inhibitor Activity Protein 2
Melanoma Inhibitor Activity Protein 2 (MIA-2) encoded by MIA2 gene in humans, is a secreted cytokine that is highly expressed in liver and weakly in testis. The patients with severe fibrosis or inflammation and chronic hepatitis have higher level of MIA2 than other. Levels of MIA2 may severe as a clinically utility marker for diagnosis of hepatic disease activity and severity. The MIA2 is a member of the MIA/OTOR family, which also includes MIA, OTOR, and TANGO, and they share a Src homology-3 (SH3)-like domain.
