Dll4 Suppresses Transcytosis for Arterial Blood-Retinal Barrier Homeostasis [PDF]
Rationale: Central nervous system has low vascular permeability by organizing tight junction (TJ) and limiting endothelial transcytosis. While TJ has long been considered to be responsible for vascular barrier in central nervous system, suppressed transcytosis in endothelial cells is now emerging as a complementary mechanism ...

The notch ligand delta-like 4 regulates multiple stages of early hemato-vascular development.
BackgroundIn mouse embryos, homozygous or heterozygous deletions of the gene encoding the Notch ligand Dll4 result in early embryonic death due to major defects in endothelial remodeling in the yolk sac and embryo.

Bone marrow-derived endothelial progenitors expressing Delta-like 4 (Dll4) regulate tumor angiogenesis. [PDF]
Neo-blood vessel growth (angiogenesis), which may involve the activation of pre-existing endothelial cells (EC) and/or the recruitment of bone marrow-derived vascular precursor cells (BM-VPC), is essential for tumor growth.

Background: Delta-like ligand 4 (DLL4) is a key Notch ligand implicated in tumor angiogenesis. However, previous studies have shown that the DLL4-Notch signaling inhibits tumor angiogenesis but promotes tumor progression in primary glioblastoma.

Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of cancer‐related deaths globally, and cases are predicted to rise dramatically over the next few years. Overcoming the immune microenvironment in HCC remains a challenge, and innate immune populations such as tumour‐associated neutrophils can potentially impair the success of immunotherapy ...

Anti-DLL4, a cancer therapeutic with multiple mechanisms of action
DLL4 is a ligand for the Notch family of receptors. DLL4 has many important functions in normal development and tissue homeostasis, including roles in the immune system, the gastro-intestinal tract, and in vascular development. Because of the importance of Notch signaling in stem cell biology, DLL4 has been investigated for its role in the maintenance ...
