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 ...

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.
