Alternative Name: Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor 165 (VEGF165)

Background: Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) is a potent growth and angiogenic cytokine. It stimulates proliferation and survival of endothelial cells, and promotes angiogenesis and vascular permeability. Expressed in vascularized tissues, Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) plays a prominent role in normal and pathological angiogenesis. Substantial evidence implicates Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) in the induction of tumor metastasis and intra-ocular neovascular syndromes. Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) signals through the three receptors, fms-like tyrosine kinase (flt-1), KDR gene product (the murine homolog of KDR is the flk-1 gene product) and the flt4 gene product.
Synonyms: Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor, VPF, Folliculostellate cell-derived growth factor, Glioma-derived endothelial cell mitogen

Molecular Weight: 35-48 kDa, observed by non-reducing SDS-PAGE.
