Identification of functional VEGF receptors on human platelets [PDF]
Platelets secrete platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) upon stimulation. We have demonstrated that platelets have functionally active PDGF α-receptors, a transmembrane tyrosine kinase involved in negative ...

Imatinib attenuates cardiac fibrosis by inhibiting platelet-derived growth factor receptors activation in isoproterenol induced model. [PDF]
Cardiac fibrosis is a significant global health problem with limited treatment choices. Although previous studies have shown that imatinib (IMA) inhibited cardiac fibrosis, the anti-fibrotic mechanisms have not been clearly uncovered.

PURPOSE Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is characterized by loss of von Hippel Lindau tumor suppressor gene activity, resulting in high expression of pro-angiogenic growth factors: vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and platelet-derived growth factor ...

The impact of high density receptor clusters on VEGF signaling [PDF]
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling is involved in the process of blood vessel development and maintenance. Signaling is initiated by binding of the bivalent VEGF ligand to the membrane-bound receptors (VEGFR), which in turn stimulates receptor dimerization.

Cargo binding promotes KDEL receptor clustering at the mammalian cell surface [PDF]
Transmembrane receptor clustering is a ubiquitous phenomenon in pro- and eukaryotic cells to physically sense receptor/ligand interactions and subsequently translate an exogenous signal into a cellular response. Despite that receptor cluster formation has been described for a wide variety of receptors, ranging from chemotactic receptors in bacteria to ...

Imatinib- and Nilotinib-Induced Lichenoid Eruption in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia: A Rare Case Report
Imatinib and nilotinib are inhibitors of tyrosine kinases (TKIs) generated from the bcr-abl fusion protein, c-Kit, and platelet-derived growth factor receptors. Cutaneous adverse effects (AEs) of TKI are the most frequent non-hematological sequelae.

SDF-1 and PDGF enhance [alpha]v[beta]5-mediated ERK activation and adhesion-independent growth of human pre-B cell lines [PDF]
CD23 acts through the [alpha]v[beta]5 integrin to promote growth of human pre-B cell lines in an adhesion-independent manner. [alpha]v[beta]5 is expressed on normal B-cell precursors in the bone marrow.

PDGFR-β signaling mediates HMGB1 release in mechanically stressed vascular smooth muscle cells.
Mechanically stressed vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) have potential roles in the development of vascular complications. However, the underlying mechanisms are unclear.
