Notch4 gene

Notch4 is a gene that produces a protein involved in controlling how cells develop and communicate within the body. It is part of the Notch family, which helps regulate processes like cell growth, differentiation, and blood vessel formation. Notch4 plays a significant role in vascular development and the functioning of the immune system. Changes or mutations in this gene can sometimes be linked to diseases, including certain cancers and vascular disorders. Overall, Notch4 is essential for maintaining healthy cell functions and proper development of tissues.
