Novel VEGF family members: VEGF-B, VEGF-C and VEGF-D
The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2001Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) constitute a group of structurally and functionally related growth factors that modulate many important physiological functions of endothelial cells. Currently, five different mammalian VEGFs have been identified and they all show unique temporal and spatial expression patterns, receptor specificity and ...

Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy, 2001
The majority of cancer have an absolute requirement for angiogenesis, the process by which new blood vessels are formed. The most potent angiogenic cytokine is vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and there has been substantial research into the development of VEGF/VEGF receptor (VEGFR) antagonists.

VEGF and VEGF receptors are differentially expressed in chondrocytes
Bone, 2007During long bone development, cartilage replacement by bone is governed in part by angiogenesis. Although it has been demonstrated that vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF-A) is crucial during endochondral ossification, little is known about the involvement of the other VEGF family members.

Current biology of VEGF-B and VEGF-C
Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 1999Endothelial growth factors and their receptors may provide important therapeutic tools for the treatment of pathological conditions characterised by defective or aberrant angiogenesis. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is pivotal for vasculogenesis and for angiogenesis in normal and pathological conditions.

Unique signal transduction of the VEGF family members VEGF-A and VEGF-E
Biochemical Society Transactions, 2009Both VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor)-A and Orf-virus-encoded VEGF-E bind and activate VEGFR (VEGF receptor)-2; however, only VEGF-A binds VEGFR-1. To understand the biological differences between VEGF-A and VEGF-E in vivo, we established transgenic mouse models.

Neuroscience Research, 2008
In amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), an adult-onset progressive degeneration of motor neurons occurring as sporadic and familial disease, there is emerging evidence for and against the role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), an endothelial cell mitogen crucial for angiogenesis, in its etiopathogenesis.

Molecular Biology of the VEGF and the VEGF Receptor Family
Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2000Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is the founding member of a still growing family of endothelial cell growth factors. The diverse functions of VEGF and its homologues (PIGF, VEGF-B, VEGF-C, VEGF-D, and VEGF-E) can be explained by their differential binding to the three signaling VEGF receptors.
