Cell Culture, Control, ELISA, ELISpot Control, Western Blot Control
100% Homology:
Capra hircus (goat)
  • Caprine VEGF-A (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A) (catalog RP1133G) is a yeast-derived cytokine supplied lyophilized without carrier protein in 10% trehalose; it has no affinity tags and is naturally endotoxin-free, and should be reconstituted in sterile PBS that contains at least 0.1% carrier protein. The protein is ~22.0 kDa, 188 amino acids long (full sequence provided), and >98% pure by SDS-PAGE, with 100% amino-acid homology to goat. Store at -20°C (stable up to twelve months from date of receipt; working aliquots with carrier protein stable ~3 months) and avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Product origin is the USA. It is commonly used to study VEGF-A signaling and angiogenesis (including regulation of endothelial cell proliferation, migration, and vascular development); typical experimental uses include cell-culture stimulation and dosing studies, angiogenesis and signaling assays, ELISA and neutralization assays, flow-cytometry and Western blot controls, and antibody generation/validation. Kingfisher Biotech products are supplied for research applications and are not intended for medicinal, diagnostic, or therapeutic use.

Caprine Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A (VEGF-A) is a member of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family, which includes VEGF-A, VEGF-B, VEGF-C, VEGF-D, and placental growth factor (PlGF)—key regulators of angiogenesis, vascular development, and endothelial cell function. In goats (Capra hircus), VEGF-A is produced by multiple cell types including endothelial cells, macrophages, fibroblasts, epithelial cells, and trophoblast cells, particularly in response to hypoxia, inflammation, or tissue injury. VEGF-A exerts its biological effects primarily through binding to VEGF receptor-1 (VEGFR-1/Flt-1) and VEGF receptor-2 (VEGFR-2/KDR) on endothelial cells, activating intracellular signaling pathways such as MAPK/ERK, PI3K/AKT, and PLCγ, which promote endothelial cell proliferation, migration, vascular permeability, and formation of new blood vessels. In caprine physiology, VEGF-A plays important roles in placental vascular development, reproductive function, mammary gland growth, and tissue repair. It is particularly important during pregnancy and placentation, where VEGF-mediated angiogenesis supports maternal–fetal blood supply and nutrient exchange. VEGF-A also contributes to wound healing and inflammatory responses through regulation of vascular remodeling and tissue regeneration. Because angiogenesis is essential for reproductive efficiency, fetal development, and mammary gland function in goats, caprine VEGF-A is studied in reproductive biology, placental development, vascular physiology, and livestock health research.
