Background Information
Tie-2, or TEK, is a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) specifically expressed in endothelial cells. It plays a crucial role in angiogenesis, forming new blood vessels, and maintaining vascular stability. Tie-2 is a member of the Tie receptor family, characterized by the presence of immunoglobulin and epidermal growth factor (EGF) homology domains. Tie-2 plays a significant role in several vascular diseases, including vascular malformations like venous malformations. It is also implicated in pathological vascular remodeling associated with tumor growth, where it is often overexpressed in tumor vessels.
