VEGFD Human Recombinant produced in HEK-293 cells is a secreted protein (amino acids Phe93-Ser201) fused to a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
VEGF-D belongs to the VEGF/PDGF family of proteins. VEGF-D promotes lymphangiogesis, endothelial cell growth, and regulates vascular permeability. In addition, VEGF-D has an important part in the creation of the venous and lymphatic vascular systems and in the growth and maintenance of differentiated lymphatic endothelium Mature VEGF-D forms a noncovalently linked homodimer, and binds to and activate both VEGFR-2 (flk1) and VEGFR-3 (flt4).
It is recommended to reconstitute the Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor D in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100 µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. The ED50 of 3-4ng/ml is measured by its ability to stimulate the proliferation of human microvascular endothelial cells (HMVECs).
