VEGF is a potent growth and angiogenic cytokine. It stimulates proliferation and survival of endothelial cells, and promotes angiogenesis and vascular permeability. Expressed in vascularized tissues, VEGF plays a prominent role in normal and pathological angiogenesis. Substantial evidence implicates VEGF in the induction of tumor metastasis and intra-ocular neovascular syndromes. VEGF signals through the three receptors; fms-like tyrosine kinase (flt-1), KDR gene product (the murine homolog of KDR is the flk-1 gene product) and the flt4 gene product.
VEGF是一种强效的生长和血管生成细胞因子。它能够刺激内皮细胞的增殖和存活,并促进血管生成及血管通透性。在血管丰富的组织中表达的VEGF,在正常及病理性血管生成中发挥重要作用。大量证据表明,VEGF与肿瘤转移及眼内新生血管综合征的发生密切相关。VEGF通过三种受体发挥信号作用:类Fms酪氨酸激酶受体(flt-1)、KDR基因产物(小鼠同源物为flk-1基因产物)以及flt4基因产物。
