The VEGFA Polyclonal Antibody (CAB17000) is a valuable tool for researchers studying Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A (VEGFA), a key player in angiogenesis and vascular permeability. This antibody, generated in rabbits, shows high reactivity with human samples and has been validated for use in Western blot applications.VEGFA is a potent growth factor that plays a crucial role in the formation of new blood vessels, making it a promising target for therapeutic interventions in conditions like cancer, retinopathy, and cardiovascular disease.
The VEGFA Polyclonal Antibody binds specifically to the VEGFA protein, allowing for accurate detection and analysis in various cell types.With its ability to target VEGFA, this antibody is an essential tool for researchers in the fields of oncology, vascular biology, and developmental biology. By studying the expression and function of VEGFA, scientists can gain valuable insights into the mechanisms of angiogenesis and explore novel approaches for treating diseases characterized by aberrant blood vessel formation.

This gene is a member of the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family. It encodes a heparin-binding protein, which exists as a disulfide-linked homodimer. This growth factor induces proliferation and migration of vascular endothelial cells, and is essential for both physiological and pathological angiogenesis. Disruption of this gene in mice resulted in abnormal embryonic blood vessel formation. This gene is upregulated in many known tumors and its expression is correlated with tumor stage and progression. Elevated levels of this protein are found in patients with POEMS syndrome, also known as Crow-Fukase syndrome. Allelic variants of this gene have been associated with microvascular complications of diabetes 1 (MVCD1) and atherosclerosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. There is also evidence for alternative translation initiation from upstream non-AUG (CUG) codons resulting in additional isoforms. A recent study showed that a C-terminally extended isoform is produced by use of an alternative in-frame translation termination codon via a stop codon readthrough mechanism, and that this isoform is antiangiogenic. Expression of some isoforms derived from the AUG start codon is regulated by a small upstream open reading frame, which is located within an internal ribosome entry site. The levels of VEGF are increased during infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), thus promoting inflammation by facilitating recruitment of inflammatory cells, and by increasing the level of angiopoietin II (Ang II), one of two products of the SARS-CoV-2 binding target, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). In turn, Ang II facilitates the elevation of VEGF, thus forming a vicious cycle in the release of inflammatory cytokines.
