Platelet-derived Growth Factor Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (PDGFR)

Target
PDGFR
Molecular classification
Receptor Tyrosine Kinase, Class III Receptor Tyrosine Kinase
01

Overview

Platelet-derived growth factor receptors (PDGFRs) are cell surface receptor tyrosine kinases that mediate the effects of platelet-derived growth factors (PDGFs). There are two main types: PDGF receptor alpha (PDGFRA) and PDGF receptor beta (PDGFRB). Both play critical roles in cellular signaling, development, and disease processes. Abnormal activation or mutation of these receptors is linked to various diseases, including cancer and cardiovascular disease.
