What Does ECGF Stand For?

ECGF stands for Endothelial Cell Growth Factor

Endothelial Cell Growth Factor (ECGF) is a protein that promotes the growth, proliferation, and survival of endothelial cells, which line the interior surface of blood vessels. It plays a critical role in angiogenesis, the process of forming new blood vessels, and is important for tissue repair, regeneration, and maintaining vascular health. Research into ECGF has implications for various medical conditions, including cardiovascular diseases and cancer.
