EG-VEGF Endocrine Gland Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Mouse Recombinant Protein

Highly expressed in liver and ovary and weakly expressed in testis and placenta. Expressed in mucosa and mesenchyme of embryonic gut during enteric nervous system development (at protein level) . Predominantly expressed in kidney and liver. Also expressed in lung, ovary, placenta and testis. In fetal liver, is restricted to and highly expressed in hepatocytes. In adult kidney, expression is restricted to the endothelial tubule cells. In placenta, expressed throughout gestation.

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Endocrine Gland Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Potently contracts gastrointestinal (GI) smooth muscle. Induces proliferation, migration and fenestration (the formation of membrane discontinuities) in capillary endothelial cells. Induces proliferation and differentiation, but not migration, of enteric neural crest cells. Directly influences neuroblastoma progression by promoting the proliferation and migration of neuroblastoma cells. Positively regulates PTGS2 expression and prostaglandin synthesis. May play a role in placentation. May play a role in normal and pathological testis angiogenesis.

Lyophilized EG-VEGF Human Recombinant although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution EG-VEGF should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
