CD8 T-cell induction against vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 by Salmonella for vaccination purposes against a murine melanoma. [PDF]
The Salmonella type III secretion system (T3SS) efficiently translocates heterologous proteins into the cytosol of eukaryotic cells. This leads to an antigen-specific CD8 T-cell induction in mice orally immunized with recombinant Salmonella. Recently, we

Background Angiogenic ocular diseases address the main source of vision impairment or irreversible vision loss. The angiogenesis process depends on the balance between the pro-angiogenic and anti-angiogenic factors.

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Increases Urokinase Receptor Expression in Vascular Endothelial Cells [PDF]
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a potent angiogenic factor and endothelial cell-specific mitogen that stimulates urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) activity in vascular endothelial cells. Here, we report that VEGF increases the high affinity binding of uPA to the same cells and that this binding is prevented by a peptide ...

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Ligands and Receptors in Breast Cancer
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common malignancy responsible for the largest number of deaths in women worldwide. The risk of developing BC is predisposed by many factors such as age, presence of genetic mutations or body weight. The diagnosis is mostly made relatively late, which is why patients are exposed to radical surgical treatments, long-term ...

Background Endothelial cell injury, induced by dyslipidemia, is the initiation of atherosclerosis, resulting in an imbalance in endothelial fatty acid (FA) transport. Pigment epithelial‐derived factor (PEDF) is an important regulator in lipid metabolism.

Pancreatic carcinoma cells express neuropilins and vascular endothelial growth factor, but not vascular endothelial growth factor receptors [PDF]
AbstractBACKGROUNDNeuropilins (NRPs) are characterized as coreceptors of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). In the current study, the authors assessed the expression of NRPs, VEGF, and vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFRs), as well as VEGF‐induced cell proliferation, in pancreatic carcinoma cell lines and tissue specimens ...

Placental growth factor promotes atherosclerotic intimal thickening and macrophage accumulation [PDF]
Background: Placental growth factor (PlGF) has been implicated in the pathophysiological angiogenesis and monocyte recruitment that underlie chronic inflammatory disease, but its role in atherosclerosis has not been examined.

Recent developments in receptor tyrosine kinases targeted anticancer therapy [PDF]
Novel concepts and understanding of receptors lead to discoveries and optimization of many small molecules and antibodies as anti-cancerous drugs. Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are such a promising class of receptors under the investigation in past ...
