PIGF-100

Placenta growth factor (PlGF) is a member of the PDGF/VEGF family of growth factors. PlGF induces monocyte activation, migration, and production of inflammatory cytokines and VEGF.

Description
Placenta growth factor (PlGF) is a member of the PDGF/VEGF family of growth factors. PlGF induces monocyte activation, migration, and production of inflammatory cytokines and VEGF. These activities facilitate wound, bone fracture, and cardiac repair, but also contribute to inflammation in active sickle cell disease and atherosclerosis. PlGF can also inhibit TIMP3 expression in the spleen, leading to immune triggering of hypertension.
Alternative splicing results in at least three human mature PlGF forms containing 131 (PlGF-1), 152 (PlGF-2), and 203 (PlGF-3) amino acids (aa) respectively. 

Full Name
Placenta growth factor

Source
E. coli
