Inhibitor of DNA binding‐1 is a key regulator of cancer cell vasculogenic mimicry
Elevated expression of transcriptional regulator inhibitor of DNA binding 1 (ID1) promoted cancer cell‐mediated vasculogenic mimicry (VM) through regulation of pro‐angiogenic and pro‐cancerous genes (e.g. VE‐cadherin (CDH5), TIE2, MMP9, DKK1). Higher ID1 expression also increased metastases to the lung and the liver.

Brain homeostasis : VEGF receptor 1 and 2 ; two unequal brothers in mind [PDF]
Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs), initially thought to act specifically on the vascular system, exert trophic effects on neural cells during development and adulthood.

Stochastic models of the binding kinetics of VEGF-A to VEGFR1 and VEGFR2 in endothelial cells [PDF]
Vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFRs) are receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) that regulate proliferation, migration, angiogenesis and vascular permeability of endothelial cells. VEGFR1 and VEGFR2 bind vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs), inducing receptor dimerisation and activation, characterised by phosphorylation of tyrosine ...

Understanding and measuring mechanical signals in the tumor stroma
This review discusses cancer‐associated fibroblast subtypes and their functions, particularly in relation to extracellular matrix production, as well as the development of 3D models to study tumor stroma mechanics in vitro. Several quantitative techniques to measure tissue mechanical properties are also described, to emphasize the diagnostic and ...

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and Angiogenesis in the Regulation of Cutaneous Wound Repair.
Significance: Angiogenesis, the growth of new blood vessels from existing vessels, is an important aspect of the repair process. Restoration of blood flow to damaged tissues provides oxygen and nutrients required to support the growth and function of ...

The tumor microenvironment is a dynamic, multifaceted complex system of interdependent cellular, biochemical, and biophysical components. Three‐dimensional in vitro models of the tumor microenvironment enable a better understanding of these interactions and their impact on cancer progression and therapeutic resistance.

Integrative modeling of sprout formation in angiogenesis: coupling the VEGFA-Notch signaling in a dynamic stalk-tip cell selection [PDF]
During angiogenesis, new blood vessels headed by a migrating endothelial tip cell sprout from pre-existing ones. This process is known to be regulated by two signaling pathways concurrently, vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) and Notch-Delta. Extracellular VEGFA activates the intracellular Notch-Delta pathway in nearby endothelial cells which

PURPOSE Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is characterized by loss of von Hippel Lindau tumor suppressor gene activity, resulting in high expression of pro-angiogenic growth factors: vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and platelet-derived growth factor ...

We generated and characterized clear cell renal cell carcinoma models using the patient‐derived RCC243 cell line—including cell culture, orthotopic, and metastatic tumors—via single‐cell RNA‐sequencing for comparisons between models and patient tumor datasets.
