BMP-15
Bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP-15; GDF9B), also known as growth and differentiation factor 9B (GDF9B), is a polymorphic ligand protein belonging to the TGFβ family and expresses exclusively in the oocyte[1]. BMP15 is closely related to GDF9, which is essential for early ovarian folliculogenesis[1]. BMP15 and GDF9 involve in the genetic control of follicular development. Their main functions include regulating cellular proliferation/differentiation, follicular survival/atresia, and oocyte maturation, to creat an environment supporting follicle selection and growth[2]. BMP15 involves in p38 MAPK pathway to up-regulate anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) expression in granulosa cells, which is produced by granulosa cells (GCs) of preantral and small antral follicles and plays a role in regulating the recruitment of primordial follicles and the FSH-dependent development of follicles[3]. Otherwise, BMP15 binds HIF-1α/SCF signaling pathway to induce stem cell factor (SCF) expression in human GCs of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) related follicles[4].

The EpCAM/TROP1 protein serves as an important homogeneous interacting molecule that promotes direct contact between intestinal epithelial cells (IEC) and intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) in the mucosal epithelium. This feature helps establish an immune barrier against mucosal infections. EpCAM/TROP1 Protein, Human (His-SUMO) is the recombinant human-derived EpCAM/TROP1 protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His, N-SUMO labeled tag.
