Cysteine-rich angiogenic inducer 61 (CYR61) is a secreted protein belonging to the Cellular communication network (CCN) family of polypeptides with four known domains. CYR61 is activated transcriptionally by growth factors and agonists through the G-protein coupled receptor pathway and interacts with herapin sulphate proteoglycan and integrins alpha-3 and alpha-5.
Interaction with integrins aid CYR61 in promoting cell adhesion, cell migration and cell proliferation; the protein also has known roles in chemotaxis, extracellular matrix formation and angiogenesis. Elevated levels of CYR61 are observed in diseases associated with chronic inflammation, including rheumatoid arthritis and various forms of cancer, due to its part in inducing tumour growth, allowing the protein to function as a biomarker of disease activity.
