Genes affected
VEGFC (HGNC:12682): (vascular endothelial growth factor C) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the platelet-derived growth factor/vascular endothelial growth factor (PDGF/VEGF) family. The encoded protein promotes angiogenesis and endothelial cell growth, and can also affect the permeability of blood vessels. The proprotein is further cleaved into a fully processed form that can bind and activate VEGFR-2 and VEGFR-3 receptors. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2014]

Submissions by phenotype

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 28, 2023The c.659A>G (p.Q220R) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the VEGFC gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 659, causing the glutamine (Q) at amino acid position 220 to be replaced by an arginine (R). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
