[Histonet] FLI-1

[Houston, Ronnie]

Hi Liz,

FLK-1 and FLT-1 are cell membrane receptors for VEGF; Fli-1 is a
transcription factor/regulator. As it is a nuclear protein, yes, in a strict
sense, it doesn't stain the same as CD31 or CD34 or Factor VIII, but it is
specific for endothelial cells.

I believe the antibody you are talking about is FLK-1 or FLT-1, another
name for it is VEGF-R2.  From what I understand it does not stain the
same as CD34, I don't believe it is specific for endothelial cells, it
will stain other things also.  You can get this antibody from Santa
Cruz.  We have worked on this in the past and in our hands it was a
tough one.  It does play a role in angiogenesis.
