It consists of fifteen amino acids in a unique sequence with no known homology to other natural peptides
Competitive radioligand binding studies reveal nanomolar-range affinities, with the compound effectively displacing radiolabelled VEGF-A in receptor saturation experiments
For example, increased levels of the Egr gene were observed at 1 h, Nos , Srf , and Kras genes demonstrated increased expression at 1 and 24 h in all vessels, and Egr expression was increased at 24 h in both ovarian veins
A practical default is about 28 days in the refrigerator at 2-8 C when mixed with bacteriostatic water and handled cleanly
