Function
Placental growth factor (PlGF) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PGF gene. Placental growth factor is a member of the VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) sub-family - a key molecule in angiogenesis and vasculogenesis, in particular during embryogenesis. The main source of PlGF during pregnancy is the placental trophoblast. PGF is also expressed in many other tissues, including the villous trophoblast. The placental growth factor gene (PGF) is a protein-coding gene and a member of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family. PGF is expressed only in human umbilical vein endothelial cells, and the placenta. PGF is ultimately associated with angiogenesis. Specifically, PGF plays a role in trophoblast growth and differentiation. Trophoblast cells, specifically extravillous trophoblast cells, are responsible for invading the uterine wall and the maternal spiral arteries. The extravillous trophoblast cells produce a blood vessel of larger diameter for the developing fetus that is independent of maternal vasoconstriction. This is essential for increased blood flow and reduced resistance. Proper development of blood vessels in the placenta is crucial for the higher blood requirement of the fetus later in pregnancy. Under normal physiologic conditions, PGF is also expressed at a low level in other organs including the heart, lung, thyroid, and skeletal muscle.

Sandwich ELISA analysis of Human PLGF matched pair antibodies
Capture: HA725377, Human PLGF Rabbit mAb [PSH23-85]
Detector: HA725378, Human PLGF Rabbit mAb [PSH23-86]
Elisa assay was performed by coating wells of a 96-well plate with 100 µl per well of capture antibody (HA725377) diluted in carbonate/bicarbonate buffer, at a concentration of 2 μg/ml overnight at 4℃. Wells of the plate were washed, blocked with 150 µl 0.05% tween-20 1% BSA blocking buffer, and incubated with serial diluted Recombinant Human PLGF protein (HA211337) starting from 10,000 pg/ml to 0 pg/ml and detect antibody (HA725378, Biotin, 0.2 µg/ml) for 1 hour at 30℃ with shaking. Then the plate was washed and incubated with 100 µl per well of SA-HRP for 0.5 hour at 30℃ with shaking. Detection was performed using an Ultra TMB Substrate for 10 minutes at room temperature in the dark. The reaction was stopped with sulfuric acid and absorbances were read on a spectrophotometer at 450 nm.

Interpolated concentrations of native PLGF in JAR cell culture supernatant.
Capture: HA725377, Human PLGF Rabbit mAb [PSH23-85]
Detector: HA725378, Human PLGF Rabbit mAb [PSH23-86]
The concentrations of PLGF were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the PLGF standard curve and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are 100% JAR cell culture supernatant. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean PLGF concentration was determined to be 1,457 pg/ml in JAR cell culture supernatant.
