Description
The AFL4 antibody reacts with mouse VEGFR-3, an endothelial-specific receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) related to VEGF receptors. The immunogen used was the extracellular domain of VEGFR-3, corresponding to nucleotides 45-2354 in the GeneBank L07296. VEGFR-3 is induced in all endothelial cells (ECα) during early embryogenesis, and its expression eventually disappears from the vascular endothelial cells of adult tissues. VEGFR-3 is constitutively expressed in the adult lymphatic endothelium. Although VEGFR-3 is not expressed in adult blood vessels, it is induced in vascular endothelial cells of tumor-bearing tissues. Studies have shown that both VEGF-C and VEGF-D, ligands for VEGFR-3, promote lymphatic vessel proliferation throughout central tumor areas and at their peripheries, demonstrating that such molecules aid in the spread of tumor cells from the primary tumor to local lymph nodes.
