Intraluminal application of vascular endothelial growth factor enhances healing of microvascular anastomosis in a rat model [PDF]

, 2005
Background: Early reconstitution after injury to the endothelium is an important feature for reducing a number of vessel wall pathologies. We investigated the effect of vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF) and its impact on the vascular remodeling ...

Effects of diabetes on myocardial capillary density and serum angiogenesis biomarkers in male rats

Clinics, 2011
INTRODUCTION: Cardiovascular disease is one of the main causes of mortality and morbidity in diabetic patients. This study evaluated the effects of diabetes on myocardial capillary density and several serum angiogenic factors including nitric oxide ...

Novel Function for Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor-1 on Epidermal Keratinocytes [PDF]

The American Journal of Pathology, 2005
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF-A), a potent stimulus for angiogenesis, is up-regulated in the skin after wounding. Although studies have shown that VEGF is important for wound repair, it is unclear whether this is based solely on its ability to promote angiogenesis or if VEGF can also promote healing by acting directly on non-endothelial cell

Structural and functional characterization of the intracellular kinase domain of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 [PDF]

, 2013
Vascular Endothelial Growth Factors (VEGFs) are key players in blood and lymphatic vessel development and homeostasis. The family consists of five members, VEGF-A, -B, -C, -D and placenta growth factor (PLGF).

Autophagy in the endothelium commands flow-mediated vascular reactivity and remodelling, and regulates VEGFR2 subcellular localization and signalling

Autophagy Reports, 2023
Pharmacological approaches aimed at increasing autophagic flux and genetically engineered mice with autophagy deficiency in the endothelium have demonstrated that autophagy exerts vessel protection against metabolic stresses and vascular aging.

Vascular endothelial growth factor production and regulation in rodent and human pituitary tumor cells in vitro [PDF]

, 2001
Angiogenesis, the formation of a new blood supply, is an essential step in tumorigenesis. Although vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is known to be a very potent angiogenic factor in most solid tumors, little is known about its production and ...

Gestational diabetes mellitus is associated with increased pro-migratory activation of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 and reduced expression of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Placentas from gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are often hypervascularized; however, participation of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptors in this placental adaptation is unclear.

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-B Induces Myocardium-Specific Angiogenesis and Arteriogenesis via Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor-1– and Neuropilin Receptor-1–Dependent Mechanisms [PDF]

Circulation, 2009
Background— New revascularization therapies are urgently needed for patients with severe coronary heart disease who lack conventional treatment options. Methods and Results— We describe a new proangiogenic approach for these no-

The structural and functional characterization of the extracellular domain of vascular endothelial growth factor receptors : their role in receptor activation and use as therapeutic targets [PDF]

, 2012
: The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family plays key roles in the development of the blood and lymphatic vasculature. Five members, VEGF A, B, -C, -D, and PlGF can be found in the human body.
