General description

SILu Lite VEGF165 is a recombinant glycosylated human protein expressed in human 293 cells. It is a homodimer with an apparent molecular mass of 45 kDa.


Suggested Quantitative Analysis Parameters
(MRM settings provided for three suggested peptides)

Biochem/physiol Actions

VEGF165 belongs to the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family characterized by the presence of eight conserved cysteine residues and a cystine knot structure.1 VEGF is secreted by the majority of tumor cells and initiates angiogenesis by activating endothelial cells of existing blood vessels and promoting their migration.2
VEGF has also been implicated in correlation with poor prognosis in breast cancer.2 In addition, VEGF is released in rheumatoid arthritis in response to TNF-α, increasing endothelial permeability and stimulating angiogenesis (formation of capillaries)3,4
