GENE - TERM ANNOTATION REPORT

RGD ID: 14230826
Species: Sus scrofa
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: VEGFA
Name: vascular endothelial growth factor A
Acc ID: DOID:1584
Term: acute chest syndrome
Definition: A lung disease that involves a vasoocclusive crisis of the pulmonary vasculature seen in patients with sickle cell anemia. The crisis is initiated by a lung infection, and the resulting inflammation and loss of oxygen tension leads to sickling of red cells and further vasoocclusion. The disease has_symptom fever, has_symptom pleuritic chest pain, has_symptom tachypnea, has_symptom cough, has_symptom hypoxemia, has_symptom marked leukocytosis, and has_symptom diffuse infiltrates on chest radiograph.
