  • VEGF-B
  • VEGF-related factor
  • VRF
Background InformationVEGF-B, also known as Vascular endothelial growth factor B, VEGF-related factor, VRF, and encoded by the gene VEGFB/VRF, is an endothelial cell growth factor that has multiple splice variants and plays roles in angiogenesis but also in cardiac muscle function, coronary vascular development, chemotaxis of endothelial cells and mast cells, apoptosis regulation, platelet activation, cell division, wound healing and the activation of various signaling pathways. VEGFB is a secreted protein that stays associated with cells because of its ability to bind to heparin. VEGFB is expressed in all cells except for liver cells with the highest levels found in muscle and pancreatic cells. VEGFB levels in plasma are also being studied as a potential biomarker for ventricle damage after heart attacks. High levels of plasma VEGFB show little remodeling whereas patients with lower levels had significant ventricle remodeling, thus VEGFB may have clinical utility in the identification of patients at high risk of remodeling and therefore ventricle damage.
