Abstract
In this chapter, we introduce a new trend in the field of CCN proteins research, that is, the yin/yang effects of CCN2 and CCN3 and the mutual regulation of ccn2 and ccn3 gene expression by these two proteins. These findings point out the need for a more thorough investigation of functional interactions between CCN proteins in normal and pathological conditions
