Descriptor English: Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor-2
Descriptor Spanish: Receptor 2 de Factores de Crecimiento Endotelial Vascular
Descriptor receptor 2 de factores de crecimiento endotelial vascular
Entry term(s) VEGFR-2
Scope note: Receptor tirosina cinasa de 200-230 kD para factores de crecimiento endotelial vascular que se encuentra principalmente en las células endoteliales y hematopoyéticas y sus precursores. El VEGFR-2 es importante para el desarrollo vascular y hematopoyético y media en casi todas las respuestas de las células endoteliales al VEGF.
