127464-60-2 Usage
Uses
VEGF human has been used as a chemoattractant for HUVECs (human umbilical vein endothelial cells) migration assay.
General Description
VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) signals through the three receptors; fms-like tyrosine kinase (flt-1), KDR gene product (the murine homolog of KDR is the flk-1 gene product) and the flt4 gene product. Recombinant human VEGF is a 38.2kDa disulfide-linked homodimeric protein consisting of two 165 amino acid polypeptide chains.
Biochem/physiol Actions
VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) is a potent growth and angiogenic cytokine. It stimulates proliferation and survival of endothelial cells, and promotes angiogenesis and vascular permeability. Expressed in vascularized tissues, VEGF plays a prominent role in normal and pathological angiogenesis. Substantial evidence implicates VEGF in the induction of tumor metastasis and intraocular neovascular syndromes. Polymorphism in VEGF at C(-634)G is linked with diabetic retinopathy in type 2 diabetes.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 127464-60-2 includes 9 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 6 digits, 1,2,7,4,6 and 4 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 6 and 0 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 127464-60:
(8*1)+(7*2)+(6*7)+(5*4)+(4*6)+(3*4)+(2*6)+(1*0)=132
132 % 10 = 2
So 127464-60-2 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
