Target intelligence / Profile preview

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Secretion (None)

Target
None
Molecular classification
Secreted protein, Growth factor
01

Overview

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) secretion refers to the process by which cells release VEGF, a heparin-binding glycoprotein that plays a central role in angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels), vasculogenesis, and vascular permeability. VEGF secretion is tightly regulated by factors such as hypoxia, cytokines, growth factors, oncogenes, and tumor suppressors, and its dysregulation is implicated in various diseases, particularly cancer.

02

Mechanism of action

VEGF secretion itself is not a mechanism of action but rather a process. Drugs target the VEGF molecule or its receptors.
