VEGF165 Protein, Human is a Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A (VEGF-A) isoform. VEGF165 Protein is the growth factor that affects the angiogenesis, vasculogenesis and endothelial cell growth. VEGF165 Protein can binds to the FLT1/VEGFR1 and KDR/VEGFR2 receptors, heparan sulfate and heparin, and affects the motor neuron signaling pathway. VEGF165 Protein, Human (HEK293) is a human-derived VEGF165 Protein that can be expressed by HEK293.

Description

VEGF165 Protein, Human is a Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A (VEGF-A) isoform. VEGF165 Protein is the growth factor that affects the angiogenesis, vasculogenesis and endothelial cell growth. VEGF165 Protein can binds to the FLT1/VEGFR1 and KDR/VEGFR2 receptors, heparan sulfate and heparin, and affects the motor neuron signaling pathway. VEGF165 Protein, Human (HEK293) is a human-derived VEGF165 Protein that can be expressed by HEK293.

Background

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) has multiple isoforms, created by alternative splicing or proteolytic cleavage, and characterized by different receptor-binding and matrix-binding properties. These isoforms are known to give rise to a spectrum of angiogenesis patterns marked by differences in branching, which has functional implications for tissues. VEGF-A is a key member of the VEGF family of cytokines, along with VEGF-B, -C, -D, and PlGF. VEGF-A mediates angiogenesis, the expansion of an existing vascular bed by sprouting of new blood vessels. The vegfa gene is translated into a number of splice isoforms, the most notable in humans being VEGF121, VEGF165, and VEGF189[1].

In Vitro

VEGF165 Protein, Human (50 ng/mL, 12-48 h) promotes the proliferation, migration, invasion and tube formation of HUVECs[2].

Please refer to the lot-specific COA for specific buffer information.
Note: For SPR assay, please replace the buffer. Primary amine components (e.g., Tris, imidazole) can affect protein-coupled chips.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
