Canopy FGF signaling regulator 2 (CNPY2) is a novel angiogenic growth factor. In recent years, increasing evidence highlights that CNPY2 has important functions in health and disease. Many new blood vessels need to be formed to meet the nutrient supply in the process of tumor growth. CNPY2 can participate in the development of tumors by promoting angiogenesis. CNPY2 also enhances neurite outgrowth in neurologic diseases and promotes cell proliferation and tissue repair, thereby improving cardiac function in cardiovascular diseases. Regrettably,...
