Arsenite suppresses angiogenesis of vascular endothelial cells mediated by Platelet Derived Growth Factor Receptor-beta [PDF]
The present study aimed to investigate the effects of sodium arsenite (NaAsO2) on the angiogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and the mechanism involved. Firstly, a Matrigel-based in vitro angiogenesis assay demonstrated that arsenite suppressed the angiogenesis of HUVECs in a dose-dependent manner.

PDGFRB Promotes Liver Metastasis Formation of Mesenchymal-Like Colorectal Tumor Cells
In epithelial tumors, the platelet-derived growth factor receptor B (PDGFRB) is mainly expressed by stromal cells of mesenchymal origin. Tumor cells may also acquire PDGFRB expression following epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), which occurs ...

The aims were as follows: (1) to evaluate the effects at 48 and 96 h of two concentrations (25 and 50%) of leukocyte and platelet-rich gel (L-PRG) and pure PRG (P-PRG) supernatants on the production/degradation in normal equine synovial membrane explants

Hepatic stellate cells (HSC) undergo activation toward myofibroblast-like cells during early stages of liver injury associated with fibrogenesis. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), particularly its BB isoform, has been identified as the most potent ...

Mini-Review on Targeted Treatment of Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumor
Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a devastating disease which most commonly affects adolescents, with a male predominance. Despite the best multimodality treatment efforts, most patients will ultimately not survive more than 3–5 years after ...

Disease-related growth factor and embryonic signaling pathways modulate an enhancer of TCF21 expression at the 6q23.2 coronary heart disease locus. [PDF]
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the leading cause of mortality in both developed and developing countries worldwide. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have now identified 46 independent susceptibility loci for CHD, however, the biological and ...

The binding of three radiolabeled isoforms of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), 125I-PDGF-AA, 125I-PDGF-AB, and 125I-PDGF-BB, is differentially affected by exposure of quiescent 3T3 cells to transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta). By 24 h after exposure to TGF-beta, binding of 125I-PDGF-AA and 125I-PDGF-AB is almost completely lost, whereas ...
