Drug treatment of hypertension: focus on vascular health [PDF]
Hypertension, the most common preventable risk factor for cardiovascular disease and death, is a growing health burden. Serious cardiovascular complications result from target organ damage including cerebrovascular disease, heart failure, ischaemic heart

AbstractVascular endothelial growth factor‐C (VEGF‐C) binds to receptor vascular endothelial growth factor receptor‐3 (VEGFR‐3) expressed on lymphatic endothelial and melanoma cells. Binding of VEGF‐C to VEGFR‐3 enhances receptor phosphorylation that activates mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAP‐K) and phosphatidylinositol‐3‐kinase (PI3K).

Tumor angiogenesis and anti-angiogenic therapy in malignant gliomas revisited [PDF]
The cellular and molecular mechanisms of tumor angiogenesis and its prospects for anti-angiogenic cancer therapy are major issues in almost all current concepts of both cancer biology and targeted cancer therapy. Currently, (1) sprouting angiogenesis, (2)

Recent developments in receptor tyrosine kinases targeted anticancer therapy [PDF]
Novel concepts and understanding of receptors lead to discoveries and optimization of many small molecules and antibodies as anti-cancerous drugs. Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are such a promising class of receptors under the investigation in past ...

Vascular endothelial growth factor C promotes survival of retinal vascular endothelial cells via vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 [PDF]
To determine vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF-C) expression in retinal endothelial cells, its antiapoptotic potential and its putative role in diabetic retinopathy.Cultured retinal endothelial cells and pericytes were exposed to tumour necrosis factor (TNF)alpha and VEGF-C expression determined by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain ...

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor-1 Modulates Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-Mediated Angiogenesis via Nitric Oxide [PDF]
The known responses of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are mediated through VEGF receptor-2 (VEGFR-2/KDR) in endothelial cells. However, it is unknown whether VEGFR-1 (Flt-1) is an inert decoy or a signaling receptor for VEGF during physiological or pathological angiogenesis.
