Immunohistochemical expression of vascular endothelial growth factor in orofacial lesions – A review

Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research, 2016
Angiogenesis is considered to be an important biological process in disease progression and tumorigenesis. Among the various factors associated with angiogenesis, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a leading candidate.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor [PDF]

JAMA Neurology, 2015
In this issue of JAMA Neurology, Hohman et al1 provide new insights into a biomarker related to cognitive performance in advanced age. They report that elevated levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are associated with improved hippocampal volume, episodic memory, and executive function.

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...
