RSPO1/R-spondin-1 Protein, Human (HEK293, His)
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
RSPO1/R-spondin-1 is a secreted glycoprotein. RSPO1/R-spondin-1 binds to LGR4/5/6 receptors and ZNRF3/E3 ubiquitin ligases, inhibits Wnt receptor degradation, stabilizes β-catenin and promotes its nuclear translocation, and activates target gene transcription. RSPO1/R-spondin-1, Human promotes intestinal organoid survival, induces pancreatic β-cell proliferation to improve diabetes, enhances osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells to treat osteoporosis, and inhibits bone erosion in arthritis models. RSPO1/R-spondin-1 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is a recombinant RSPO1/R-spondin-1 protein expressed by HEK293 with a C-His tag.

Background
RSPO1/R-spondin-1 belongs to the R-spondin family (including 4 members, RSPO 1-4)[2][4]. RSPO1/R-spondin-1 is a secreted glycoprotein. RSPO1/R-spondin-1 binds to LGR4/5/6 receptors and ZNRF3/E3 ubiquitin ligase, inhibits Wnt receptor degradation, stabilizes β-catenin and promotes its nuclear translocation, and activates target gene transcription[2][4][7]. RSPO1/R-spondin-1 is expressed in intestinal epithelium, pancreatic acini, bone mesenchyme, joint osteoblasts and other tissues[1][5][6][7]. RSPO1/R-spondin-1, Human is highly homologous to RSPO1 in mouse, rat and other species in terms of amino acid sequence and function (such as activating Wnt signaling and promoting tissue regeneration)[5][6]. RSPO1/R-spondin-1, Human is composed of 263 amino acids, contains N-glycosylation modification (such as Asn137 site), and sugar chain structures include sialic acid, N-acetylglucosamine, etc.[4]. RSPO1/R-spondin-1, Human promotes the survival of intestinal organoids, induces pancreatic β-cell proliferation to improve diabetes, enhances the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells to treat osteoporosis, and inhibits bone erosion in arthritis models[2][5][6][7].
In Vitro
RSPO1/R-spondin-1, Human (500 ng/mL) increases size and survival in mouse intestinal organoid unit (OU) culture and activates the Wnt/β-catenin pathway[2].
RSPO1/R-spondin-1, Human (1 μg/mL) induces expansion of human pancreatic organoids (hPOs) and maintains a ductal cell phenotype[3].
RSPO1/R-spondin-1, Human (400 nM; 24 h) promotes proliferation of pancreatic β cells in MIN6 mice in a dose-dependent manner[5].
RSPO1/R-spondin-1, Human (100 ng/mL) enhances Wnt signaling (β-catenin nuclear accumulation) and induces alkaline phosphatase and osteoprotegerin (OPG) expression in mouse C2C12 mesenchymal cells and primary osteoblasts[7].
In Vivo
RSPO1/R-spondin-1, Human (0.8 mg/kg; i.p.; 80 days) maintains normoglycemia and improves glucose tolerance in Streptozotocin (HY-13753)-induced diabetic mice[5].
RSPO1/R-spondin-1, Human (3.3 μg/g; i.p.; daily; 7 days) increases bone mineralization deposition rate and promotes osteoblast differentiation in aging model mice (Terc-/-, Wrn-/-Terc-/-)[6].
Verified Bioactivity
1.R-Spondin-1 enhances BMP-2-mediated differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells. The expected ED50 is 0.5-3 μg/mL.
2.Measured by its ability to induce Topflash reporter activity in HEK293T human embryonic kidney cells. The ED50 for this effect is 1-10 ng/mL
