VEGF Receptor 3 also known as FLT-4 is a protein essential for lymphatic development and is expressed mainly in lymphatic endothelial cells. This receptor has a molecular mass of approximately 195 kDa. VEGF Receptor 3 belongs to the tyrosine kinase family and binds with high affinity to its ligands VEGF-C and VEGF-D. These interactions lead to the activation of intracellular signaling cascades that promote cell proliferation migration and survival.
Biological function summary
The VEGF Receptor 3 acts as an important regulator of lymphangiogenesis which is the growth of new lymphatic vessels from pre-existing ones. It is not typically part of larger protein complexes but it works closely with its ligands to facilitate the processes associated with lymph vessel formation and function. Proper activity of VEGF Receptor 3 is necessary for maintaining normal lymphatic vessel remodeling and function during development and in some adult tissues.
Pathways
The receptor is involved in the VEGF signaling pathway which plays an important role in vascular and lymphatic development. This pathway intersects with others like the PI3K/AKT pathway a critical mediator of cell growth and survival. VEGF Receptor 3 interacts with related receptors such as VEGF Receptor 2 in these pathways to regulate complex and essential physiological processes.
VEGF Receptor 3 has been linked to lymphedema which is swelling due to lymphatic system dysfunction and certain cancers where excessive angiogenesis occurs. Mutations or dysregulations in the receptor's signaling can lead to these conditions. In cancer for instance VEGF Receptor 3 along with its associated protein VEGF-C can promote tumor lymphangiogenesis facilitating metastasis. Antagonists like anti-VEGF therapies target these receptors to inhibit tumor progression and manage these disorders.
