Placenta Growth Factor (PLGF)
Placenta Growth Factor (PLGF) is active in angiogenesis and endothelial cell growth, stimulating their proliferation and migration. It binds to the receptor FLT1/VEGFR-1. Isoform PlGF-2 binds NRP1/neuropilin-1 and NRP2/neuropilin-2 in a heparin-dependent manner. PLGF also promotes cell tumor growth.
