Target Information

GDF-15 belongs to the TGF-beta cytokine family, which plays an important role in prenatal development, postnatal growth, and tissue remodeling.
It is predominantly expressed in the placenta and, to a lesser extent, in other tissues.
Presence in amniotic fluid and elevated serum levels in pregnant women indicate involvement in gestation and embryonic development.
GDF-15 generally exhibits tumor suppressive activities and is produced in response to p53 pathway activation.
Serum levels correlate with progression of several tumor types, including colorectal, pancreatic, and prostate cancers.
