VEGF: A potential target for hydrocephalus

Cell and Tissue Research, 2014
Growth factors are primarily responsible for the genesis, differentiation and proliferation of cells and maintenance of tissues. Given the central role of growth factors in signaling between cells in health and in disease, it is understandable that disruption of growth factor-mediated molecular signaling can cause diverse phenotypic consequences ...

VEGF-A is increased in exogenous endophthalmitis

Canadian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2017
Exogenous endophthalmitis is an ophthalmologic emergency defined by panocular inflammation. Vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) contributes to inflammation by promoting chemotaxis of monocytes and granulocytes and by increasing vascular permeability.

Calreticulin Regulates VEGF-A in Neuroblastoma Cells

Molecular Neurobiology, 2014
Calreticulin (CRT) has been previously correlated with the differentiation of neuroblastoma (NB), implying a favorable prognostic factor. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been reported to participate in the behavior of NB. This study investigated the association of CRT and VEGF-A in NB cells.

Antiangiogenic VEGF-A in peripheral artery disease

Nature Medicine, 2014
Vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) is a potent proangiogenic cytokine elevated in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). A new study links impaired vascular regrowth in PAD to increased expression of an antiangiogenic splice variant of VEGF-A.

Upregulation of VEGF-A and correlation between VEGF-A and FLT-1 expressions in Iranian multiple sclerosis patients

Neurological Sciences, 2020
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is among the most common diseases affecting brain and spinal cord. MS progression is characterized by breakdown of blood brain barrier which leads to increased vascular permeability and angiogenesis. Consequently, vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF) and its receptors are considered to be important components of MS ...

Spatial Expression of VEGF-A in Human Glioma

Journal of Neuro-Oncology, 2002
Astrocytoma, especially of high grade, is dependent on neovascularization for its growth and progression. The expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF-A), an important angiogenesis factor, has been demonstrated in perinecrotic cells in glioblastoma.

OS067. VEGF, a novel stimulator of aldosterone production

Pregnancy Hypertension: An International Journal of Women's Cardiovascular Health, 2012
Adrenal aldosterone production depends upon capillary integrity. Inadequately explained by increased renin secretion, aldosterone is high in pregnancy, a proangiogenic state. In preeclampsia, low aldosterone levels coincide with disturbed endothelial integrity due to disrupted VEGF signaling.We hypothesized that the stimulation of adrenal aldosterone ...
