Product Name | Platelet Derived Growth Factor A (PDGF-A) (Western Blot Control) |
Description | Purity Single band on western blot. he term `PDGF' refers to a family of disulphide bond linked dimeric isoforms that act as autocrine and paracrine growth factors and are produced by a variety of cell types other than platelets. They act as potent mitogens for almost all mesenchymally-derived cells. Aberrant expression is involved in certain cancers, fibroproliferative disorders and atherosclerosis. The protein also contributes to wound healing and neural regeneration. There are four members of the PDGF family - PDGF A, PDGF B, PDGF C and PDGF D. Two distinct types of PDGF-A exist - a short form that is soluble and a long form that is retained by the extracellular matrix. |
