Preferred Label : receptors, platelet-derived growth factor;
MeSH definition : Specific receptors on cell membranes that react with PLATELET-DERIVED GROWTH FACTOR,
its analogs, or antagonists. The alpha PDGF receptor (RECEPTOR, PLATELET-DERIVED GROWTH
FACTOR ALPHA) and the beta PDGF receptor (RECEPTOR, PLATELET-DERIVED GROWTH FACTOR
BETA) are the two principle types of PDGF receptors. Activation of the protein-tyrosine
kinase activity of the receptors occurs by ligand-induced dimerization or heterodimerization
of PDGF receptor types.;
