Erythropoietin (EPO) is a cytokine (glycoprotein) that stimulates erythropoiesis.

Placental Growth Factor, PlGF is a protein from the family of vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF), synthesized mainly by trophoblast cells, stimulating the development of placental vessels and proliferation of trophoblast cells.

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor is one of the key regulators of angiogenesis. The most important role in the human body is played by a protein of the VEGF family called VEGF-A. VEGF-A is a 45 kDa glycoprotein homodimer and plays a key role in chemotaxis and angioblast differentiation, endotheliocyte (EC) proliferation, vasculogenesis, and vascular remodeling. As a result of alternative splicing or proteolytic cleavage, 4 main isoforms of VEGF-A are formed, consisting of 121, 165, 189, or 206 amino acid residues.
