Rat VEGF164 Antibody Summary

Species Reactivity
Rat
Specificity
Detects rat VEGF164 in direct ELISAs and Western blots. Shows 50 - 100% cross-reactivity with recombinant mouse (rm) VEGF120, rmVEGF164, recombinant human (rh) VEGF121, rhVEGF165, and rhVEGF189 and no cross-reactivity with rmVEGF115. Recognizes an epitope found between amino acids 78-120 of rmVEGF120. This segment is present in all VEGF isoforms except rmVEGF115.

Background: VEGF

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF or VEGF-A), also known as Vascular Permeability Factor (VPF), is a potent mediator of both angiogenesis and vasculogenesis in the fetus and adult. It is a member of the PDGF family that is characterized by the presence of eight conserved cysteine residues and a cystine knot structure. VEGF164 appears to be the most abundant and potent isoform, followed by VEGF120 and VEGF188. Rat VEGF164 is an approximately 50 kDa molecular weight homodimer sharing 97% aa sequence identity with corresponding regions of mouse, 88% with human and bovine, 90% with feline and equine, and 89% with canine and porcine VEGF, respectively. VEGF binds the type I transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinases VEGF R1 (also called Flt-1) and VEGF R2 (Flk-1/KDR) on endothelial cells. Although VEGF affinity is highest for binding to VEGF R1, VEGF R2 appears to be the primary mediator of VEGF angiogenic activity. Human VEGF165 binds the Semaphorin receptor, Neuropilin-1 and promotes complex formation with VEGF R2. VEGF is required during embryogenesis and functions 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. VEGF is induced by hypoxia and cytokines such as IL-1, IL-6, IL-8, Oncostatin M (OSM) and TNF-alpha.
