Growth factor active in angiogenesis, vasculogenesis and endothelial cell growth. Induces endothelial cell proliferation, promotes cell migration, inhibits apoptosis and induces permeabilization of blood vessels. Binds to the FLT1/VEGFR1 and KDR/VEGFR2 receptors, heparan sulfate and heparin.
Specificity
Natural and recombinant Pig Vascular endothelial growth factor A
Subcellular Location
Secreted Secreted but remains associated to cells or to the extracellular matrix unless released by heparin.
Detection Range
31.2-2000pg/mL
Entryname
VEGFA_PIG
Linearity
The linearity of the kit was assayed by testing samples spiked with appropriate concentration of VEGF-A and their serial dilutions. The results were demonstrated by the percentage of calculated concentration to the expected.
Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay):Three samples of known concentration were tested twenty times on one plate to assess intra-assay precision.
Intra-Assay CV: ≤ 4.8%
Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays):Three samples of known concentration were tested in five separate assays to assess inter-assay precision.
Inter-Assay CV: ≤ 10.2%
Protein Name
Vascular endothelial growth factor A
Recovery
Recovery was determined by spiking various levels of VEGF-A into serum and plasma .
