Human PLGF ELISA Kit PicoKine® (96 Tests). Quantitate Human PGF in cell culture supernatants, serum, plasma (heparin, EDTA, citrate) and urine. Sensitivity: 1pg/ml. The brand Picokine indicates this is a premium quality ELISA kit. Each Picokine kit delivers precise quantification, high sensitivity, and excellent reproducibility. Only our most reliable and effective kits qualify as Picokine, guaranteeing top-tier results for your assays.

The protein, also called PGF, is 149 amino acids long and shares 53% identity with the platelet-derived growth factor-like region of human VPF. And the N-glycosylated PLGF protein is secreted into the medium and that it functions as a dimer1. The PLGF gene is mapped to 14q24-q31. There are 3 isoforms of PGF, designated PGF1, PGF2, and PGF3. Only PGF2 is able to bind heparin. Additionally, PGF regulates inter- and intramolecular cross-talk between the VEGF receptor tyrosine kinases FLT1 and FLK12. It also can stimulate angiogenesis and collateral growth in ischemic heart and limb with at least a comparable efficiency to VEGF3.
