Nfatc2 | Nuclear factor of activated T-cells, cytoplasmic 2; Plays a role in the inducible expression of cytokine genes in T-cells, especially in the induction of the IL-2, IL-3, IL-4, TNF-alpha or GM-CSF. Promotes invasive migration through the activation of GPC6 expression and WNT5A signaling pathway. (927 aa) | ||||
Spink2 | Serine protease inhibitor Kazal-type 2; As a strong inhibitor of acrosin, it is required for normal spermiogenesis. It probably hinders premature activation of proacrosin and other proteases, thus preventing the cascade of events leading to spermiogenesis defects. May be involved in the regulation of serine protease-dependent germ cell apoptosis. It also inhibits trypsin. (86 aa) |
