Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 in glioblastoma‑associated microglia/macrophages
The anti‑vascular endothelial growth factor‑A (VEGF‑A) monoclonal antibody (mAb) bevacizumab is an FDA‑approved monotherapy for the treatment of recurrent glioblastoma (GB), a highly angiogenic and infiltrative tumour. However, bevacizumab does not increase overall survival and blockade of VEGF‑A/VEGF receptor (VEGFR)‑2 signal transduction is ...

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor-1 and Neuropilin-2 Form Complexes [PDF]
The products of the neuropilin-1 (Np-1) and neuropilin-2 (Np-2) genes are receptors for factors belonging to the class 3 semaphorin family and participate in the guidance of growing axons to their targets. In the presence of heparin-like molecules, both receptors also function as receptors for the heparin-binding 165-amino acid isoform of vascular ...

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

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

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]
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-

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

Despite initial responsiveness, acquired resistance to both bevacizumab and chemotherapy in metastatic colorectal cancer is universal. We have recently published that in vitro, chronically oxaliplatin resistance upregulates soluble vascular endothelial ...

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]
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.
