The association of alternate VEGF ligands with resistance to anti-VEGF therapy in metastatic colorectal cancer. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Circulating angiogenic factors are altered in patients with mCRC receiving bevacizumab. Evaluation of alterations in levels of VEGF ligands may provide insights into possible resistance mechanisms. METHODS:PlGF, VEGF-A, VEGF-C, and VEGF-D were

VEGF-A165 is more abundant than VEGF-A121 in human platelets.
(A, B) VEGF-A121 and VEGF-A165 in plasma and serum (A) and those in platelet lysate (PL-VEGF-A121 and PL-VEGF-A165) (B) were measured by isoform specific ELISAs (n = 59).

VEGF-D: a modifier of embryonic lymphangiogenesis
VEGF-D potently stimulates lymphangiogenesis in adults and promotes metastasis of both human and experimental mouse tumors.1–4 However, studies in gene-deficient mice have suggested that it is dispensable for embryonic lymphatic vascular development.5 Ny et al now show that VEGF-D functions as a modifier of VEGF-C–driven early sprouting and migration ...

Clinical significance of VEGF-A, -C and -D expression in esophageal malignancies [PDF]
Vascular endothelial growth factors ( VEGF)- A, - C and - D are members of the proangiogenic VEGF family of glycoproteins. VEGF-A is known to be the most important angiogenic factor under physiological and pathological conditions, while VEGF-C and VEGF-D
