    Background
    Cysteine-rich protein 61 (CYR61, also known as CCN1) is a secreted matricellular protein of the CCN family distinguished by its high cysteine content forming disulfide bonds that stabilize its structure, featuring four conserved modular domains from N- to C-terminus: an insulin-like growth factor-binding protein (IGFBP)-like domain (Module I) with 68 amino acids for low-affinity IGF interactions, a von Willebrand factor type C repeat (vWC) domain (Module II) involved in dimerization and heparin binding, a thrombospondin type 1 repeat (TSP-1) domain (Module III) critical for integrin αvβ3 and α6β1 engagement, and a C-terminal cysteine-knot domain (Module IV) mediating receptor binding and multimerization on the extracellular matrix. CYR61 orchestrates diverse context-dependent cellular responses by binding distinct integrins and heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) like syndecan-4, promoting angiogenesis through αvβ3-mediated endothelial proliferation, VEGF upregulation, and recruitment of CD34+ progenitors while inducing apoptosis via α6β1/HSPG complexes that trigger ROS production via RAC-1, 5-lipoxygenase, NADPH oxidase, and mitochondria, leading to sustained JNK activation, c-FLIP degradation, caspase-8/10 signaling, and p53-mediated DNA damage responses in fibroblasts and endothelial cells. It drives cardiovascular and skeletal development including placental vessel bifurcation, hypertrophic cartilage neovascularization, osteoblast differentiation via αvβ3/ILK, and osteoclast inhibition, whereas in tumorigenesis its overexpression correlates with progression in breast, lung, and hepatocellular carcinoma via Wnt/β-catenin or hypoxia-inducible factor-1α regulation, yet inversely with prostate cancer aggressiveness.
