[VEGF-A145] [Vascular endothelial growth factor-145] This truncated isoform of VEGF is the result of alternative splicing. It consists of exons 1-6 and 8 of the VEGF gene. The rodent equivalent is VEGF-144 (VEGF-A144 [Vascular endothelial growth factor-144]) (Burchardt et al, 1999). VEGF-145 contains the heparin binding domain encoded by exon 6 and binds tightly to the extracellular matrix (Poltorak et al, 1997). For an anti-angiogenic isoform of VEGF-145 see: VEGF-145b.
VEGF-145 is expressed by cells
