VEGF R2 acts as a cell surface receptor for VEGFA, VEGFC, and VEGFD, where binding of these VEGFs to VEGF R2 activates several signaling cascades, including activation of PLCG1 (leading to the activation of protein kinase C), the MAP kinase signaling pathways, and the AKT1 signaling pathway. Furthermore, VEGF R2 plays an essential role in the regulation of angiogenesis, vascular development and permeability, embryonic hematopoiesis, and reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton. Finally, VEGF R2 is a major growth factor for endothelial cells and is the main facilitator of VEGF-induced endothelial proliferation, differentiation, and migration.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe standard is affinity purified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions-+4°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions-+4°C, Storage information-+4°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nVEGF Receptor 2 also known as KDR or Flk-1 is a receptor tyrosine kinase important for mediating the effects of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). This protein has a mass of approximately 150 kDa. It mostly expresses in vascular endothelial cells playing a primary role in the formation of blood vessels. The receptor can also be found in various non-endothelial tissues though in smaller amounts indicating its broad functional roles outside of the vascular system.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nVEGF Receptor 2 is important for angiogenesis and vascular permeability. It is part of the VEGF receptor family which also includes VEGF Receptors 1 and 3 forming a complex interaction network. Upon binding with VEGF it phosphorylates key proteins to initiate signals that regulate endothelial cell migration proliferation and survival. The receptor's function is critical for normal developmental processes and wound healing as well.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nVEGF Receptor 2 is especially important within the angiogenesis and vascular permeability pathways. It plays a central role in the VEGF signaling pathway alongside proteins like VEGF A which is the primary ligand for the receptor. The signaling through this receptor modulates various downstream proteins through phosphorylation linking it to pathways that control cellular responses essential for blood vessel formation and maintenance.\u003cbr\u003e\nVEGF Receptor 2 is significantly linked with cancer and age-related macular degeneration. In the context of cancer the overexpression or dysregulation of VEGF and its receptors including VEGF Receptor 2 often leads to enhanced tumor angiogenesis promoting tumor growth and metastasis. Additionally the receptor interacts with other proteins in pathological states such as CD309 in endothelial cell-based assays which are used for research like flow cytometry and ELISA to monitor VEGF Receptor 2 activity and its impact on diseases.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843562262697,"sku":"ab213476","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab213476","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
