Platelet-Derived Growth Factor-BB (PDGF-BB) is one of five dimers (PDGF-AA AB BB CC and DD) formed by 4 different PDGF subunits. In vivo PDGF-BB is mainly produced in heart and placenta and predominantly expressed by osteoblasts fibroblasts smooth muscle cells and glial cells. An inactive precursor of PDGF-BB is produced in the endoplasmic reticulum and then activated by a proprotein convertase after secretion. PDGF-BB functions in a paracrine manner and promotes organogenesis human skeletal development and wound healing. PDGF-BB also promotes angiogenesis particularly in the presence of Fibroblast Growth Factor basic. Therefore PDGF-BB and its related pathways are potential pharmacological targets.
