Embryonic vascular system undergoes a series of complex, highly regulated series of events involving differentiation, migration and association of primitive endothelial cells.
This process is termed vasculogenesis.
A further remodeling of the primitive vascular system forms the mature cardiovascular system.
This process is known as angiogenesis (sprouting of new capillary vessels from pre-existing vasculature).
Study of tumor angiogenesis has led to the identification of several proteins including basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor.
VEGF acts by interacting with a family of largely endothelial-specific receptor tyrosine kinases that includes VEGFR-1 (flt-1/flk-2), VEGFR-2 (flk- 1/KDR), and VEGFR-3/Flt-4.
Disruption of VEGFRs interferes with differentiation of endothelial cells and it is lethal for the embryo.
FLT-4 (mouse 1363aa and human 1298aa), a receptor protein tyrosine kinase, is a receptor for VEGF-C.
Mouse FLT-4 protein topology: 1-24aa signal peptide, 25-1363 mature protein (25-775 EC domain, 776-797aa TM domain, 798-1363aa CP domain).
FLT-4 is type 1 membrane protein.
It is expressed in adult lung, and liver, and in fetal liver, brain, intestine, and placenta.
