Recombinant Human Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor from Oryza sativa (OsrhVEGF)
Description
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), also known as vascular permeability factor (VPF), is a highly specific growth factor that promotes the growth of vascular endothelial cells. It enhances vascular permeability, extracellular matrix remodeling, endothelial cell migration, proliferation, and angiogenesis. VEGF has also been confirmed to have chemotactic effects on monocytes and osteoblasts.
OsrhVEGF is produced using recombinant gene technology, expressed in rice endosperm cells, and purified through protein extraction processes.
