About PEDF Human
Also known as “Pigment Epithelium-Derived Factor” or “SERPINF1,” PEDF is a
multifunctional protein found in vertebrates. It has anti-tumorigenic, anti-angiogenic, and
neurotrophic functions. Currently, it’s being researched as a candidate for treatment for
several conditions, including heart disease and cancer.
What’s the Function of PEDF Human Recombinant?
PEDF is created/secreted in several tissues across the body. It has a unique anti-angiogenic
action because of its induction of apoptosis in proliferating endothelial cells. Also, PEDF
can inhibit many angiogenic factors, including VEGF and FGF-2. PEDF-R is currently the
only known signaling receptor to be used by a serpin family member.
What’s the Application of PEDF Human Recombinant?
This version of PEDF is produced in E. Coli. It’s a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide
chain that contains 400 amino acids. It has a molecular mass of 44.5 kDa, and it’s purified
by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
The main purpose of PEDF human recombinant is for research. It has the potential to
become a potential treatment for different angiogenesis-related diseases, including
various cancers. Moreover, it can become crucial during the recovery from vasculature-
related neurodegenerative illness.
Such a discovery could be revolutionary for the world, which is why more research is
needed to determine the effect of this non-inhibitory serpin on the body.
