Function
Platelet-derived growth factor is a potent mitogen for cells of mesenchymal origin. Binding of this growth factor to its receptor elicits a variety of cellular responses. It is released by platelets upon wounding and plays an important role in stimulating adjacent cells to grow and thereby heals the wound. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family. -
Domain
The long form contains a basic insert which acts as a cell retention signal. -
Cellular localization
Secreted. - Information by UniProt
