Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and its Receptors
Retina, 1994Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a highly specific mitogen for vascular endothelial cells and an angiogenic factor that is structurally related to platelet derived growth factor (PDGF). It is also known as the vascular permeability factor (VPF) because it efficiently potentiates the permeabilization of blood vessels. Five types of VEGF mRNA

Vascular endothelial growth factor and its receptors
Cytokine & Growth Factor Reviews, 1996Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a prime regulator of endothelial cell proliferation, angiogenesis, vasculogenesis and vascular permeability. Its activity is mediated by the high affinity tyrosine kinase receptors, KDR/Fik-1 and Fit-1. In this article, recently discovered structural, molecular and biological properties of VEGF are described.

Signaling via Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptors
Experimental Cell Research, 1999Angiogenesis, or development of blood vessels from preexisting vasculature, has important functions under both normal and pathophysiological conditions. Vascular endothelial growth factor receptors 1-3, also known as flt-1, KDR, and flt-4, are endothelial cell-specific receptor tyrosine kinases which serve as key mediators of the angiogenic responses ...

Frontiers in Bioscience, 2007
Angiogenesis is a critical process in both physiological development and many pathological processes. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)/VEGF receptor (VEGFR) signaling pathway plays a pivotal role in regulating angiogenesis. Many therapeutic agents targeting VEGF and VEGFR are currently in preclinical and clinical development.

To investigate how levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and VEGF receptor (VEGFR) change during corpus luteum formation in reproductive aging.Adult and reproductive aging female rats were given pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG) and the ovaries and sera were collected at 0, 3, 5, and 7 days after human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG ...

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor-3
1999Cell-cell communication during vascular development and tumour angiogenesis seems to involve at least five endothelial cell-specific tyrosine kinase receptors belonging to two distinct subclasses: two receptors of the Tie family, and three vascular endothelial cell growth factor receptors, VEGFR-1, -2 and -3, originally named Fltl (Fms-like tyrosine ...

Distinct cellular processes mediate blood-vessel formation during embryogenesis (Beck and D’Amore 1997; Carmeliet and Collen 1998a; Folkman and D’Amore 1996; Noden 1989; Risau 1997; Wilting and Christ 1996) (Fig. 1). Initially, mesodermal cells differentiate in situ into early haemangioblasts and form cellular aggregates (blood islands), in which the ...

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common form of arrhythmia with serious public health impacts, but its underlying mechanisms are not yet fully understood. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is highly expressed in the atrium of patients with AF, but whether VEGF affects AF pathogenesis remains unclear. Pulmonary veins (PVs) are important sources for
