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]
: 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.

Soluble Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor 1 in Human Breast Milk
<i>Background/Aims:</i> Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a potent proangiogenic protein that activates VEGF receptor (VEGFR-1, VEGFR-2) tyrosine kinases expressed by vascular endothelial cells. A soluble truncated form of VEGFR-1 (sVEGFR-1) binds to VEGF as strongly as full-length VEGFR-1 and inhibits VEGF activity. sVEGFR-1 can

Serum Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor/Soluble Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor 1 Ratio Is an Independent Prognostic Marker in Pancreatic Cancer [PDF]
Tumor angiogenesis is the consequence of an imbalance between positive and negative angiogenic regulatory factors. We sought to determine the role of pretreated serum angiogenic factors, including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), placental growth factor (PlGF), and soluble vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 (sVEGFR-1), in ...

VEGF guides angiogenic sprouting utilizing endothelial tip cell filopodia [PDF]
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF-A) is a major regulator of blood vessel formation and function. it controls several processes in endothelial cells, such as proliferation, survival, and migration, but it is not known how these are coordinately ...

Endothelial Dysfunction in Breast Cancer In-Vivo Model
Although the endothelial dysfunction is related with tumor development, there is no consensus on the suppressive or supportive effect on tumor growth. The goal of the present study was to evaluate endothelial dysfunction related factors in animal breast ...

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.
