Expansion and collapse of VEGF diversity in major clades of the animal kingdom

2022-09-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family comprises in vertebrates five or six members: VEGF(-A), PlGF, VEGF-B, VEGF-C, VEGF-D, and – in venomous reptiles – VEGF-F. They fulfill mainly functions for the blood and lymphatic vascular systems. Together with the platelet-derived growth factors (PDGF-A to -D), they form the PDGF/VEGF subgroup among cystine-knot growth factors. Despite an a...
