Materials and methods involving hybrid vascular endothelial growth factor DNAs and proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The present invention provides polypeptides that bind cellular receptors for vascular endothelial growth factor polypeptides; polynucleotides encoding such polypeptides; compositions comprising the polypeptides and polynucleotides; and methods and uses ...

Unique Phenotypes of Endothelial Cells in Developing Arteries: A Lesson from the Ductus Arteriosus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Endothelial cells (ECs) play a critical role in regulating vascular pathophysiology. Various growth factors and relaxation factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and nitric oxide (NO), which are derived from ECs, are known to maintain ...

Vascular endothelial growth factor in eye disease

open access: yesProgress in Retinal and Eye Research, 2008
Collectively, angiogenic ocular conditions represent the leading cause of irreversible vision loss in developed countries. In the U.S., for example, retinopathy of prematurity, diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration are the principal causes of blindness in the infant, working age and elderly populations, respectively.

Advanced glycation end products promote the release of endothelial cell‐derived mitocytosis

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Under diabetic conditions, AGEs induce mitochondrial damage in HUVECs, activating migrasome‐mediated mitocytosis. Migrasomes encapsulate damaged mitochondria and are released into the extracellular space, facilitating intercellular mitochondrial transfer.

Anti-VEGF drugs compared with laser photocoagulation for the treatment of diabetic retinopathy: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesHealth Technology Assessment
Background Diabetic retinopathy is a major cause of sight loss in people with diabetes. The most severe form, proliferative diabetic retinopathy, carries a high risk of vision loss, vitreous haemorrhage, macular oedema and other harms.

VEGF vascularization pathway in human intervertebral disc does not change during the disc degeneration process

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2018
Objective During degeneration of the intervertebral disc ingrowth of blood vessels and nerves into the disc are associated with back pain. Vascular endothelial growth factors promote vasculogenesis by binding to the membrane vascular endothelial growth ...

3D CA model of tumor-induced angiogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Tumor-induced angiogenesis is the formation of new sprouts from preexisting nearby parent blood vessels. Computationally, tumor-induced angiogenesis can be modeled using cellular automata (CA), partial differential equations, etc. In this present study, a realistic physiological approach has been made to model the process of angiogenesis by using 3D CA

PAKing up to the endothelium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Angiogenesis recapitulates the growth of blood vessels that progressively expand and remodel into a highly organized and stereotyped vascular network. During adulthood, endothelial cells that formed the vascular wall retain their plasticity and can be engaged in neo-vascularization in response to physiological stimuli, such as hypoxia, wound healing ...

Signal transduction by vascular endothelial growth factor receptors.

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2012
Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) are master regulators of vascular development and of blood and lymphatic vessel function during health and disease in the adult. It is therefore important to understand the mechanism of action of this family of

Long non‐coding RNAs as therapeutic targets in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and clinical application

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) occupy an abundant fraction of the eukaryotic transcriptome and an emerging area in cancer research. Regulation by lncRNAs is based on their subcellular localization in HNSCC. This cartoon shows the various functions of lncRNAs in HNSCC discussed in this review.
