Bioactivity | VGB4 is a VEGF-A and VEGF-B antagonist peptide that duplicates two binding domains of VEGF-B (loop 1 and loop3) and are linked together by the receptor-binding domain of VEGF-A (loop3). VGB4 has significant anti-angiogenic and anti-tumor activities and can regulate tumor growth and metastasis through multiple mechanisms. VGB4 could be used in anti-tumor research[1]. |
