CC -!- FUNCTION: Growth factor active in angiogenesis, vasculogenesis and
CC endothelial cell growth. Induces endothelial cell proliferation,
CC promotes cell migration, inhibits apoptosis, and induces
CC permeabilization of blood vessels. Acts both upstream of kdr and tie1
CC to stimulate endothelial cell differentiation, and upstream of gata1 to
CC stimulate hematopoietic cell differentiation.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P15692, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11578859,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:17698971}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer; disulfide-linked (By similarity). Isoform VEGF165
CC binds kdr and kdrl. {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17698971}.
CC -!- ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS:
CC Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2;
CC Name=VEGF165 {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9545518};
CC IsoId=O73682-1; Sequence=Displayed;
CC Name=VEGF121 {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11578859};
CC IsoId=O73682-2; Sequence=VSP_050737;
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Predominantly expressed in regions associated with
CC active vascularization. From 15-16 hours post-fertilization (hpf),
CC expressed in the anterior forebrain, the mesoderm underlying and
CC lateral to the anterior hindbrain, the mesoderm underlying and lateral
CC to the posterior hindbrain, and in the ventral medial portions of the
CC somites. By 30-36 hpf, expression in the somites is decreased, while
CC strong expression is observed in the region of the developing glomeruli
CC and in the anterior portion of the pronephric ducts, the pharyngeal
CC arches, and the brain. By 72 hpf, expression remains only in the
CC pronephros region.
CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expressed both maternally and zygotically. Present
CC throughout embryonic development, and in adults.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11578859, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9545518}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family.
