Ovarian vascular endothelial growth factor and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor patterns in reproductive aging

Fertility and Sterility, 2008
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 in reproductive biology

Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1999
The critical role of angiogenesis in embryology and tumor biology has been recognized for more than 20 years. However, the fact that neovascularization is essential to processes in mammalian female reproduction has only recently been appreciated widely. In this review we focus on a single angiogenic growth factor, vascular endothelial growth factor. As

Inhibitors of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Cancer

Cardiovascular & Hematological Agents in Medicinal Chemistry, 2008
Angiogenesis is a complex process that is regulated by pro- and antiangiogenic factors. These factors can emanate from diverse sources including cancer cells, stromal cells, blood and extracellular matrix. Their relative contribution is likely to change with tumor type and tumor site.

RPE and the Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor [PDF]

, 2020
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a major pro-angiogenic cytokine, but also exerts many additional physiological functions in the retina. The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is a major source for VEGF in the retina, especially affecting the endothelium of choriocapillaris but also photoreceptors and the RPE itself. VEGF is regulated on many

Role of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 in the vasodilator response to vascular endothelial growth factor in the neonatal piglet lung

Critical Care Medicine, 2005
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) regulates vascular proliferation and causes vasodilation. In the pulmonary circulation, the vasorelaxing effect of VEGF has been attributed to nitric oxide, whereas in other vascular beds, prostacyclin and other mechanisms are also involved. This vascular effect follows binding to two receptors, VEGF receptor 1

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Signaling

2005
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is the main driving force for angiogenesis and vasculogenesis. Identified as a vascular endothelial cell mitogen and survival factor, it has been sequenced and cloned by Ferrara and Connolly in 1989 [74, 84].
