Expression of VEGF-C in Breast Carcinoma and its Association with HER2/neu and Oestrogen/Progesterone Receptors: A Cross-sectional Study [PDF]
Introduction: Breast carcinoma is the most common malignant tumour and is the leading cause of carcinoma death in women. Assessing Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-C (VEGF-C) is important because the expression of VEGF-C is one of the factors ...

Immunoreactivity of the anti-VEGF-A121 and anti-VEGF-A165 monoclonal antibodies.
Mixture of rhVEGF-A121, rhVEGF-A165 and rhVEGF-A189 (50 μg each) were subjected to 15% SDS Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The transferred membrane was detected with anti-VEGF-A polyclonal antibody (left panel), anti-VEGF-A165 monoclonal ...

Tumour cells expressing single VEGF isoforms display distinct growth, survival and migration characteristics [PDF]
Vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF) is produced by most cancer cells as multiple isoforms, which display distinct biological activities. VEGF plays an undisputed role in tumour growth, vascularisation and metastasis; nevertheless the functions of

Heparanase induces VEGF C and facilitates tumor lymphangiogenesis [PDF]
AbstractHeparanase is an endoglycosidase that specifically cleaves heparan sulfate side chains, a class of glycosaminoglycans abundantly present in the extracellular matrix and on the cell surface. Heparanase activity is strongly implicated in tumor angiogenesis and metastasis attributed to remodeling of the subepithelial and subendothelial basement ...

Mechanisms of vascular morphogenesis and stabilization by VEGF dose [PDF]
VEGF is the master regulator of angiogenesis and the most investigated factor in therapeutic angiogenesis approaches to induce the growth of new vessels that could restore oxygen and nutrients supply in tissues affected by ischemia.

Critical requirement of VEGF-C in transition to fetal erythropoiesis [PDF]
Key Points Vegfc is essential for mobilization, maturation, and enucleation of primitive erythroblasts. Vegfc deletion compromises liver colonization by erythro-myeloid progenitors and subsequent macrophage/erythroid expansion.
