Localization of connective tissue growth factor in human uterine tissues (2000)
Uzumcu, M., Homsi, M.F.Al, Ball, D.K., Coskun, S., Jaroudi, K., Hollanders, J.M.G., ...
Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is a recently described heparin-binding mitogen for fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells. The aim of this study was to investigate the production of CTGF by...
Purification and characterization of heparin-binding growth factors from porcine uterus.
Brigstock, D R, Heap, R B, Barker, P J, Brown, K D
Heparin-binding growth factors present in pig uterine tissue were purified by approx. 50,000-fold using a combination of ammonium sulphate precipitation, ion-exchange chromatography and...
Steroidal regulation of connective tissue growth factor (CCN2; CTGF) synthesis in the mouse uterus
Rageh, M A E, Wilson, A K, Brigstock, D R
Aims—To determine mechanisms regulating the production of connective tissue growth factor (CCN2; CTGF) and transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) in the mouse uterus.
Rageh, M A E, Wilson, A K, Geisert, R D, Brigstock, D R
Aims: To determine the localisation and distribution of connective tissue growth factor (CCN2; CTGF) and transforming growth factor β type 1 (TGF-β1) in uterine tissues from cycling and early...
Report on the second international workshop on the CCN family of genes
Perbal, B, Brigstock, D R, Lau, L F
For the second time, researchers from leading laboratories in the CCN field gathered in Saint-Malo, France, to participate in the Second International Workshop on the CCN family of genes. In addition...
Proposal for a unified CCN nomenclature
Brigstock, D R, Goldschmeding, R, Katsube, K-i, Lam, S C-T, Lau, L F, Lyons, K, ...
A proposal is put forth to unify the nomenclature of the CCN family of secreted, cysteine rich regulatory proteins. In the order of their description in the literature, CCN1 (CYR61), CCN2 (CTGF),...

Expression of connective tissue growth factor (CCN2) in desmoplastic small round cell tumour
Rachfal, A W, Luquette, M H, Brigstock, D R
Background: Desmoplastic small round cell tumour (DSRCT) is a rare and often fatal abdominal tumour that is distinguished by well defined islands of cells, surrounded by prominent desmoplastic...
