Angiogenic Factors produced by Hypoxic Cells are a leading driver of Anastomoses in Sprouting Angiogenesis---a computational study [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports volume 8, Article number: 8726 (2018), 2018
Angiogenesis - the growth of new blood vessels from a pre-existing vasculature - is key in both physiological processes and on several pathological scenarios such as cancer progression or diabetic retinopathy. For the new vascular networks to be functional, it is required that the growing sprouts merge either with an existing functional mature vessel ...

Molecular and cellular responses of normal human trophoblast to vascular endothelial growth factor and placenta growth factor [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Implantation and growth of the placenta requires extensive angiogenesis in fetal villi and maternal decidua to form vascular structures involved in placental exchange.

Expression of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) and its Receptors (Flt-1 and Flk-1) following Permanent and Transient Occlusion of the Middle Cerebral Artery in the Rat

open access: yesJournal of Neuropathology and Experimental Neurology, 1998
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGH) is a known endothelial mitogen and a potent enhancer of vascular permeability although its role in focal cerebral ischemia is still not completely understood.

Integrative systems‐level analysis reveals a contextual crosstalk between hypoxia and global metabolism in human breast tumors

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Breast tumor samples scored for metabolic deregulation (M1 to M3) were given a hypoxia score (HS). The highest HS occurred in patients with strongest metabolic deregulation (M3), supporting tumor aggressiveness. HS correlated with the highest number of metabolic pathways in M1. This suggests hypoxia to be an early event in metabolic deregulation.

VEGFR1-tyrosine kinase signaling in pulmonary fibrosis

open access: yesInflammation and Regeneration, 2021
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is not only an important factor for angiogenesis but also lung development and homeostasis. VEGF-A binds three tyrosine kinase (TK) receptors VEGFR1–3.

Identification of functional VEGF receptors on human platelets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
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 ...

Obesity alters the fitness of peritumoral adipose tissue, exacerbating tumor invasiveness in renal cancer through the induction of ADAM12 and CYP1B1

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumor microenvironment drives cancer formation and progression. We analyzed the role of human cancer‐associated adipocytes from patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) stratified as lean, overweight, or obese. RNA‐seq demonstrated that, among the most altered genes involved in the tumor–stroma crosstalk, are ADAM12 and CYP1B1, which were proven to be ...

Dovitinib preferentially targets endothelial cells rather than cancer cells for the inhibition of hepatocellular carcinoma growth and metastasis

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2012
Background Dovitinib is a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) inhibitor targeting vascular endothelial growth factor receptors, fibroblast growth factor receptors and platelet-derived growth factor receptor β. Dovitinib is currently in clinical trials for the

Stevens-Johnson Syndrome Induced by Vandetanib [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Vandetanib is a once-daily oral anticancer drug that selectively inhibits key signaling pathways in cancer by targeting vascular endothelial growth factor receptors, epidermal growth factor receptors tyrosine kinase, and rearranged during transfection ...
