Distinct cellular processes mediate blood-vessel formation during embryogenesis (Beck and D’Amore 1997; Carmeliet and Collen 1998a; Folkman and D’Amore 1996; Noden 1989; Risau 1997; Wilting and Christ 1996) (Fig. 1). Initially, mesodermal cells differentiate in situ into early haemangioblasts and form cellular aggregates (blood islands), in which the ...

Hypertension and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factors
2015The members of vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF) are the principal regulators of angiogenesis and vascular biology. The specific growth factor of the endothelial cells is VEGF, which produces nitric oxide (NO) from endothelial cells causing vasodilation.

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and its Receptors
Retina, 1994Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a highly specific mitogen for vascular endothelial cells and an angiogenic factor that is structurally related to platelet derived growth factor (PDGF). It is also known as the vascular permeability factor (VPF) because it efficiently potentiates the permeabilization of blood vessels. Five types of VEGF mRNA

Effects of Finasteride on Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor
Scandinavian Journal of Urology and Nephrology, 2002Finasteride has been shown to reduce prostate bleeding in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The mechanisms behind this are not known, but it has been suggested that finasteride reduces bleeding by inhibiting angiogenesis in the prostate. Studies in animals have shown that castration rapidly induces involution of the prostate vasculature,

Endothelial Growth Factor Receptors in Angiogenesis
2013It is hard to underestimate the role of endothelial growth factor receptors in the generation of new blood vessels. This axis is involved in vascular development in embryos and angiogenesis in adults. As the signaling of these tyrosine kinase receptors has been elucidated, we have gained an appreciation of the complex interactions with other receptors,

Microvascular Research, 2001
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was originally discovered as vascular permeability factor because of its ability to increase microvascular permeability to plasma proteins. Since then, it has been shown to induce proliferation and migration in endothelial cells.

Fertility and Sterility, 2008
To investigate how levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and VEGF receptor (VEGFR) change during corpus luteum formation in reproductive aging.Adult and reproductive aging female rats were given pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG) and the ovaries and sera were collected at 0, 3, 5, and 7 days after human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG ...

Antivascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Diabetic Retinopathy
2010Diabetic macular edema (DME) and proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) represent the most common causes of vision loss in patients affected by diabetes mellitus. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) needs special attention because of its high public health impact and impact on quality of life of patients.

Vascular endothelial growth factors in cardiovascular medicine
Journal of Cardiovascular Medicine, 2008The discovery of vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) and their receptors has considerably improved the understanding of the development and function of endothelial cells. Each member of the VEGF family appears to have a specific function: VEGF-A induces angiogenesis (i.e.

Antivascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Hereditary Dystrophies
2010Choroidal neovascularization can rarely complicate the course of a number of chorioretinal hereditary dystrophies leading to an even further impaired vision function. In recent years, several case reports and case series have shown that intravitreal injections of antivascular endothelial growth factor drugs can be effective in treating subfoveal ...
