Descriptor English: Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor D
Descriptor Spanish: Factor D de Crecimiento Endotelial Vascular
Descriptor factor D de crecimiento endotelial vascular
Entry term(s) factor D de crecimiento del endotelio vascular
Scope note: Factor de crecimiento del endotelio vascular que se une específicamente al RECEPTOR-2 DEL FACTOR DE CRECIMIENTO ENDOTELIAL VASCULAR y al RECEPTOR-3 DEL FACTOR DE CRECIMIENTO ENDOTELIAL VASCULAR. Además de ser factor angiogénico, puede actuar sobre los VASOS LINFÁTICOS estimulando la LINFANGIOGÉNESIS. Posee una estructura similar a la del FACTOR C DE CRECIMIENTO ENDOTELIAL VASCULAR porque ambos contienen extensiones N- y C- terminales que no se encontraron en otros miembros de la familia de los factores de crecimiento del endotelio vascular.

Scope note: A vascular endothelial growth factor that specifically binds to VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTOR RECEPTOR-2 and VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTOR RECEPTOR-3. In addition to being an angiogenic factor it can act on LYMPHATIC VESSELS to stimulate LYMPHANGIOGENESIS. It is similar in structure to VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTOR C in that they both contain N- and C-terminal extensions that were not found in other VEGF family members.
