Background
VEGFR2, also named as KDR, FLK1 and CD309, is one of the two tyrosine kinase receptors involved in angiogenesis. VEGFR2 is mainly distributed in vascular endothelial cells, lymphatic endothelial cells, and embryonic precursor cells, and can bind to VEGF-A, VEGF-C, and VEGF-D. When activated by its ligand VEGF, VEGFR2 promotes neighbouring vessel formation to facilitate the delivery of growth factors, nutrients and oxygen for cancer proliferation, migration, metastasis and survival. VEGF and VEGFR2 mediated angiogenesis contributes to the aggressive natures and leads to high mortality rate in gastric cancer.
