VEGFR2/KDR/Flk-1 (vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2) is a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase that mediates the angiogenic effects of VEGF-A and VEGF-C. It is expressed primarily on vascular endothelial cells and endothelial cell progenitors. It is also expressed on endometrial epithelium, hematopoietic stem cells, liver sinusoidal endothelial cells, Sertoli cells and Leydig cells, platelets and megakaryocytes, sensory and autonomic neurons, Schwann cells, Muller glial cells, retinal progenitors, and osteoblasts. VEGFR2 can associate with VEGFR1, and a soluble form of VEGFR2 can circulate in the serum.

Figure 1. The Human Phospho-VEGF R2 DuoSet IC ELISA is more sensitive than immunoprecipiation (IP)-Western blot analysis
Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) were treated with 100 ng/mL recombinant human VEGF165 (Catalog # 293-VE) for five minutes to induce tyrosine phosphorylation of VEGF R2. Dilutions of HUVEC lysates were analyzed by this ELISA (Catalog # DYC1766) and IP-Western blot (inset). IPs were performed using an anti-VEGF R2 monoclonal antibody and anti-mouse IgG agarose. Immunoblots were incubated with a biotinylated anti-phospho-tyrosine monoclonal antibody (Catalog # BAM1676) to detect phospho-VEGF R2 (p-VEGF R2). Bands were visualized with Streptavidin-HRP (Catalog # DY998) followed by chemiluminescent detection. Blots were stripped and total VEGF R2 (VEGF R2) was detected using a biotinylated polyclonal anti-VEGF R2 antibody (Catalog # BAF357).Figure 2.

HUVECs were untreated or treated with 100 ng/mL recombinant human VEGF165 for five minutes. ELISA and IP-Western blot (inset) analyses were performed using 100 μg and 1000 μg of lysate, respectively. IP-Western blots were performed as described in Figure 1.Figure 3. The specificity of the Human Phospho-VEGF R2DuoSet IC ELISA is confirmed by receptor competition
HUVECs were treated with 100 ng/mL of human recombinant VEGF165 for five minutes. The indicated amounts of extracellular domains of recombinant VEGF R2 (Catalog # 357-KD), VEGF R1 (Catalog # 321-FL) or VEGF R3 (Catalog # 349-F4) were added to 100 μg lysate and analyzed by this ELISA. Competition was observed only with recombinant VEGF R2.Kit Contents for Human Phospho-VEGFR2/KDR DuoSet IC ELISA

FAQs for Human Phospho-VEGFR2/KDR DuoSet IC ELISA
-
Q: Is it possible to obtain quantitative data from Human Phospho-VEGFR2/KDR DuoSet IC ELISA?
A: Human Phospho-VEGFR2/KDR DuoSet IC ELISA is a developmental ELISA designed to be semi-quantitative for detecting relative changes in sample phosphorylation. End users can optimize this kit to be quantitative. It is possible to construct a standard curve from the control provided in the kit. The linear bounds would need to be empirically verified by the end user as R&D Systems has not tested this optimization in-house.
-
Q: Which phosphorylated sites are recognized by this assay?
A: This assay utilizes an anti-phosphorylated tyrosine monoclonal detection antibody, and it recognizes all phosphorylated tyrosine residues.
