MeSH definition : A steroid-inducible protein that was originally identified in uterine fluid. It is
a secreted homodimeric protein with identical 70-amino acid subunits that are joined
in an antiparallel orientation by two disulfide bridges. A variety of activities are
associated with uteroglobin including the sequestering of hydrophobic ligands and
the inhibition of SECRETORY PHOSPHOLIPASE A2.;
MeSH synonym : clara cell secretory protein; secretoglobin, family 1A, member 1; clara Cell-Specific protein; clara cell specific protein; Blastokinin;
MeSH CAS label : blastokinin;
Registry Number MeSH : 9060-09-7;
