VEGF Antibody

VEGF is the only mitogen that specifically acts on endothelial cells. It may be a major regulator of tumor angiogenesis in vivo. It is structurally related to platelet-derived growth factor. VEGF shares homology with the PDGF A chain and B chain, including conservation of all 8 cysteines found in PDGFA and PDGFB. VEGF gene contains 8 exons. VEGF induces remodeling and enhances TH2-mediated sensitization and inflammation in the lung. And this gene also can regulate haematopoietic stem cell survival by an internal autocrine loop mechanism. What’s more, it also stimulates neurogenesis in vitro and in vivo.
