Background

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor D (VEGFD), also known as c-fos-induced growth factor (FIGF), is a member of the VEGF family of growth factors. Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) are a family of closely related growth factors having a conserved pattern of eight cysteine residues and sharing common VEGF receptors. VEGFs stimulate endothelial cells, induce angiogenesis, promote cell migration, increase vascular permeability, and inhibit apoptosis. VEGFD is most closely related to VEGFC (23.3% amino acid sequence identity) and has a similar VEGF homology domain that spans the middle third of the precursor protein and the long N-terminal and C-terminal extensions. In adults, VEGFD is highly expressed in lung, heart, muscle, and small intestine. VEGFD expression in fibroblasts is induced by cell interaction mediated by cadherin 11. Recombinant human VEGFD is a ligand for the tyrosine kinases, VEGFR2 (Flk1) and VEGF receptor 3 (Flt4). Since VEGFR3 is strongly expressed in lymphatic endothelial cells, it is postulated that VEGFD is involved in the regulation of the growth and/or differentiation of lymphatic endothelium and thus, a mitogen for endothelial cells.

1. What is the difference between the Quantikine and Duoset ELISA kits?
   • Our Quantikine kits are fully optimized and validated for the sample types listed on the product specific webpage and datasheet, as this can vary between kits. Each kit is supplied ready to use with one pre-coated 96-well plate, a detection antibody directly conjugated to HRP, and all other necessary reagents. These kits are ideal for researchers who want the convenience of a ready to use and optimized ELISA product. Some of these kits are also available prepackaged in larger 6 and 50 plate sizes.Our DuoSet Kits, in contrast, are ELISA development kits containing the capture and detection antibody, the mass-value calibrated standard, and streptavidin-HRP to prepare approximately 5 or 15 plates. Ancillary reagents will need to be used/purchased, and for most kits, we will recommend one of our Ancillary Reagent Kits, which contain the reagents we use ourselves in-house. DuoSet kits are validated only for cell culture supernatant samples and therefore require further development and validation for accurate measurement in more complex samples such as serum and plasma. Our DuoSet Kits offer an economical, flexible alternative for the experienced ELISA user.
