CC -!- FUNCTION: Growth factor active in angiogenesis, and endothelial cell
CC growth, stimulating their proliferation and migration and also has
CC effects on the permeability of blood vessels. May function in
CC angiogenesis of the venous and lymphatic vascular systems during
CC embryogenesis, and also in the maintenance of differentiated lymphatic
CC endothelium in adults. Binds and activates KDR/VEGFR2 and FLT4/VEGFR3
CC receptors. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20145116}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer; non-covalent and antiparallel (PubMed:20145116).
CC Interacts with FLT4/VEGFR3; the interaction is required for FLT4/VEGFR3
CC homodimarization and activation (PubMed:23878260).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20145116, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23878260}.
CC -!- INTERACTION:
CC P49767; P35916: FLT4; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-3405539, EBI-1005467;
CC P49767; P35968: KDR; NbExp=6; IntAct=EBI-3405539, EBI-1005487;
CC P49767; Q96EQ0: SGTB; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-3405539, EBI-744081;
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Spleen, lymph node, thymus, appendix, bone marrow,
CC heart, placenta, ovary, skeletal muscle, prostate, testis, colon and
CC small intestine and fetal liver, lung and kidney, but not in peripheral
CC blood lymphocyte.
CC -!- PTM: Undergoes a complex proteolytic maturation which generates a
CC variety of processed secreted forms with increased activity toward
CC VEGFR-3, but only the fully processed form could activate VEGFR-2.
CC VEGF-C first form an antiparallel homodimer linked by disulfide bonds.
CC Before secretion, a cleavage occurs between Arg-227 and Ser-228
CC producing a heterotetramer. The next extracellular step of the
CC processing removes the N-terminal propeptide. Finally the mature VEGF-C
CC is composed mostly of two VEGF homology domains (VHDs) bound by non-
CC covalent interactions.
CC -!- DISEASE: Lymphatic malformation 4 (LMPHM4) [MIM:615907]: A form of
CC primary lymphedema, a disease characterized by swelling of body parts
CC due to developmental anomalies and functional defects of the lymphatic
CC system. Patients with lymphedema may suffer from recurrent local
CC infections. LMPHM4 is an autosomal dominant form with onset at birth or
CC in early childhood. Affected individuals manifest lymphedema of lower
CC limbs with prominent veins, and impaired lymphatic uptake and drainage.
CC Additional features are nail dysplasia, skin hyperkeratosis and
CC papillomatosis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23410910,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:24744435}. Note=The disease is caused by variants
CC affecting the gene represented in this entry.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family.
