MeSH Heading: Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor D
Tree Number(s): D12.644.276.100.800.500; D12.776.467.100.800.500; D23.529.100.800.500
Unique ID: D042643
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D042643
Scope Note: A vascular endothelial growth factor that specifically binds to VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTOR RECEPTOR-2 and VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTOR RECEPTOR-3. In addition to being an angiogenic factor it can act on LYMPHATIC VESSELS to stimulate LYMPHANGIOGENESIS. It is similar in structure to VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTOR C in that they both contain N- and C-terminal extensions that were not found in other VEGF family members.
Entry Term(s): FIGF Protein; VEGF-D; Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-D; c-fos-Induced Growth Factor
