DLL-4: delta-like 4. ALK1: activin receptor-like kinase 1. EPAS1: endothelial PAS domain-containing protein 1. Hey1/2: hairy/enhancer-of-split related to YRPW motif protein 1/2. NRP1: neuropilin 1. NRP2: neuropilin 2. Depp: decidual protein induced by progesterone. COUP-TFII: COUP transcription factor 2.
