Leukocyte surface antigen CD47 (MER6) is a ~35 kDa protein. Adhesive protein that mediates cell-to-cell interactions. Acts as a receptor for thrombospondin THBS1 and as modulator of integrin signaling through the activation of heterotrimeric G proteins. Involved in signal transduction, cardiovascular homeostasis, inflammation, apoptosis, angiogenesis, cellular self-renewal, and immunoregulation. Plays a role in modulating pulmonary endothelin EDN1 signaling. Modulates nitrous oxide (NO) signaling, in response to THBS1, hence playing a role as a pressor agent, supporting blood pressure. CD47 is the therapeutic target of magrolimab (clinical).
