The presence of VEGF receptors on the luminal surface of endothelial cells affects VEGF distribution and VEGF signaling. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2009
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a potent cytokine that binds to specific receptors on the endothelial cells lining blood vessels. The signaling cascade triggered eventually leads to the formation of new capillaries, a process called ...

Zebrafish VEGF receptors: a guideline to nomenclature. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2008
In placental mammals (eutherians), there exist three paralogous genes of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor family, namely FLT1 (also named VEGFR1), KDR (also named FLK1 and VEGFR2), and FLT4 (also named VEGFR3).

A class of extracellular vesicles from breast cancer cells activates VEGF receptors and tumour angiogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun, 2017
Non-classical secretory vesicles, collectively referred to as extracellular vesicles (EVs), have been implicated in different aspects of cancer cell survival and metastasis.

Functional relevance of the switch of VEGF receptors/co-receptors during peritoneal dialysis-induced mesothelial to mesenchymal transition.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is up-regulated during mesothelial to mesenchymal transition (MMT) and has been associated with peritoneal membrane dysfunction in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients.

Fox(y) regulators of VEGF receptors. [PDF]

open access: yesCirc Res, 2014
Vascular development is a multistep process that initially involves vasculogenesis, the process of de novo formation of the primitive vasculature from mesodermal precursors, and angiogenesis, that involves sprouting and remodeling of the primitive vasculature.1 This is followed by vascular fate specification steps that define formation of arterial ...

The impact of high density receptor clusters on VEGF signaling [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2013
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling is involved in the process of blood vessel development and maintenance. Signaling is initiated by binding of the bivalent VEGF ligand to the membrane-bound receptors (VEGFR), which in turn stimulates ...

Structure and function of VEGF receptors

open access: yesIUBMB Life, 2009
AbstractVascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) regulate blood and lymphatic vessel development and homeostasis. VEGFs are predominantly produced by endothelial, hematopoietic, and stromal cells in response to hypoxia and upon stimulation by growth factors such as transforming growth factor β (TGFβ), interleukins, or platelet‐derived growth factors

VEGF, its receptors and the Tie receptors in recurrent miscarriage [PDF]

open access: bronzeMolecular Human Reproduction, 2000
The aetiology of recurrent miscarriage (at least three consecutive miscarriages) usually remains unsolved. The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family of proteins, together with their receptors and the Tie (tyrosine kinase with immunoglobulin and epidermal growth factor homology domains) receptors, are crucial for embryonic development ...

VEGF Receptor Signaling in Tumor Angiogenesis [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe Oncologist, 2000
Abstract The growth of human tumors and development of metastases depend on the de novo formation of blood vessels. The formation of new blood vessels is tightly regulated by specific growth factors that target receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs).
