Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and its Receptors

Retina, 1994
Vascular 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

Vascular endothelial growth factor and its receptors

Cytokine & Growth Factor Reviews, 1996
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a prime regulator of endothelial cell proliferation, angiogenesis, vasculogenesis and vascular permeability. Its activity is mediated by the high affinity tyrosine kinase receptors, KDR/Fik-1 and Fit-1. In this article, recently discovered structural, molecular and biological properties of VEGF are described.

Multimodality imaging of vascular endothelial growth factor and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor expression

Frontiers in Bioscience, 2007
Angiogenesis is a critical process in both physiological development and many pathological processes. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)/VEGF receptor (VEGFR) signaling pathway plays a pivotal role in regulating angiogenesis. Many therapeutic agents targeting VEGF and VEGFR are currently in preclinical and clinical development.

Role of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptors in Vascular Development

1999
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 ...

Ovarian vascular endothelial growth factor and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor patterns in reproductive aging

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 ...

Role of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 in the vasodilator response to vascular endothelial growth factor in the neonatal piglet lung

Critical Care Medicine, 2005
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) regulates vascular proliferation and causes vasodilation. In the pulmonary circulation, the vasorelaxing effect of VEGF has been attributed to nitric oxide, whereas in other vascular beds, prostacyclin and other mechanisms are also involved. This vascular effect follows binding to two receptors, VEGF receptor 1
