A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of VASH1 antibody, Alternative Names: Vasohibin 1 control peptide, Vasohibin 1 antibody Blocking Peptide, Anti-Vasohibin 1 Blocking Peptide, VASH1 Blocking Peptide, KIAA1036 Blocking Peptide, Vasohibin 1, Vasohibin -1, Vasohibin 1, Vasohibin -1 Blocking Peptide, Vasohibin 1 Blocking Peptide
VASH1 is the angiogenesis inhibitor. It inhibits migration, proliferation and network formation by endothelial cells as well as angiogenesis. This inhibitory effect is selective to endothelial cells as it does not affect the migration of smooth muscle cells or fibroblasts. VASH1 does not affect the proliferation of cancer cells in vitro, but inhibits tumor growth and tumor angiogenesis. It acts in an autocrine manner. VASH1 inhibits artery neointimal formation and macrophage infiltration.
