Function |
Promotes angiogenesis and the proliferation of endothelial cells. Able to bind to endothelial cells and promote cell proliferation, suggesting that it may act in an autocrine fashion. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14961121}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14961121}. Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14961121}. Note=Cytoplasmic in microvascular endothelial cells. Upon angiogenesis, when endothelial cell tube formation is initiated, it is secreted.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Widely expressed. Expressed in endothelial cells, vascular smooth muscle cells and osteoblasts. Expressed in umbilical vein endothelial cells and microvascular endothelial cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14961121}.
