Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF or VEGF-A)/vascular permeability factor (VPF), is an important signaling protein as a potent mediator of both angiogenesis and vasculogenesis. It is a member of the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) family, and characterized by a cysteine-knot structure and disulfide-linked homodimer. Alternately spliced isoforms of 121, 145, 165, 183, 189, and 206 amino acids (aa) have been identified in humans, with 120, 164 and 188 aa isoforms found in mouse. VEGF binds the type I transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinases VEGF R1 (also called Flt-1) and VEGF R2 (Flk-1/KDR) on endothelial cells. VEGF is required during embryogenesis to regulate the proliferation, migration, and survival of endothelial cells. In adults, VEGF functions mainly in wound healing and the female reproductive cycle. Pathologically, it is involved in tumor angiogenesis and vascular leakage. Circulating VEGF levels correlate with disease activity in autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus erythematosus.
