NCIt synonyms : Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor:Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor Complex; VEGF/VEGFR Complex; VEGF-VEGFR Complex; Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor/Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor Complex; Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor Complex;
NCIt definition : A ligand-receptor complex comprised of a homodimer of vascular endothelial growth
factor (VEGF) family proteins bound to a heterodimer of vascular endothelial growth
factor receptor (VEGFR) family proteins. Ligand binding triggers receptor dimerization
and cross-receptor tyrosine phosphorylation, which promotes downstream signal transduction.;
