Biology of vascular endothelial growth factors [PDF]
Angiogenesis is the process by which new blood vessels are formed from existing vessels. The vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) are considered as key molecules in the process of angiogenesis. The VEGF family currently includes VEGF‐A, ‐B, ‐C, ‐D, ‐E, ‐F and placenta growth factor (PlGF), that bind in a distinct pattern to three structurally ...

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor [PDF]
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF, VEGF-A) is a major regulator of physiological and pathological angiogenesis. Several VEGF inhibitors have been approved by the FDA for the treatment of advanced cancer and neovascular age-related macular degeneration.

The biology of vascular endothelial growth factors [PDF]
The discovery of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family members VEGF, VEGF-B, placental growth factor (PlGF), VEGF-C and VEGF-D and their receptors VEGFR-1, -2 and -3 has provided tools for studying the vascular system in development as well as in diseases ranging from ischemic heart disease to cancer.

The Biology of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor [PDF]
The establishment of a vascular supply is required for organ development and differentiation as well as for tissue repair and reproductive functions in the adult1. Neovascularization (angiogenesis) is also implicated in the pathogenesis of a number of disorders.

Vascular endothelial growth factors and vascular permeability [PDF]
Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) are key regulators of permeability. The principal evidence behind how they increase vascular permeability in vivo and in vitro and the consequences of that increase are addressed here. Detailed analysis of the published literature has shown that in vivo and in vitro VEGF-mediated permeability differs in its ...

The role of vascular endothelial growth factor in ossification [PDF]
Osteogenesis and angiogenesis are two closely correlated processes during bone growth, development, remodelling and repair.Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is an essential mediator during the process of angiogenesis. Based on an extensive literature search, which was carried out using the PubMed database and the keywords of osteogenesis, VEGF,

The immunohistochemical landscape of the VEGF family and its receptors in glioblastomas
Background Angiogenesis is one of the hallmarks of cancer. This complex mechanism of tumor progression provides tumors cells with essential nutrients. There have been a limited number of investigations of markers of angiogenesis in Glioblastomas (GBMs ...
