Purpose: to study the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf-a) and its receptors (vegfr-1 and vegfr-2) in renal cell carcinoma (rcc) cells and assess the effect of the expression levels of these markers on the tumor characteristics and ...

Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-1 activation promotes migration and invasion of breast cancer cells through epithelial-mesenchymal transition. [PDF]
Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-1 (VEGFR-1 or Flt-1), a tyrosine kinase receptor, is highly expressed in breast cancer tissues, but near absent in normal breast tissue.

Structural Basis of Lymphangiogenic Receptor VEGFR-3 Activation Mediated by Distinctive Clustering of the Ligand-Receptor Complex. [PDF]
VEGF‐C and its receptor VEGFR‐3 are critical for lymphangiogenesis. Cryo‐EM structures of the VEGFR‐3/VEGF‐C ectodomain complex reveal a canonical 2:2 ligand–receptor hetero‐tetramer that further assembles into higher‐order clusters beyond simple receptor dimerization.

VEGFR-2 blockade induces tumor T cell infiltration.
MC38 tumor bearing mice were treated with 40mg/kg Rat IgG, MF1 (anti-VEGFR-1), DC101 (anti-VEGFR-2) and mF4-31C1 (VEGFR-3) at a single dose, and then tumors were collected on day 14.

GM-CSF Promotes Neutrophil PD-L1 Expression Through the VEGFR-2/STAT6/CSF2 Signaling Axis in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma. [PDF]
VEGFR‐2 signaling in OSCC activates Src–STAT6‐dependent CSF2 transcription, driving tumor‐derived GM‐CSF secretion. GM‐CSF programs neutrophils to express PD‐L1 through STAT5–mTOR/S6K signaling, suppressing cytotoxic CD8+ T cells. This pathway reveals a tumor–neutrophil immune checkpoint circuit that limits anti‐PD‐1 responsiveness in OSCC.

Proteogenomic characterization of cholangiocarcinoma
Proteogenomic characterization of cholangiocarcinoma with therapeutic strategies Abstract Background and Aims Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a highly heterogeneous cancer with limited understanding and few effective therapeutic approaches. We aimed at providing a proteogenomic CCA characterization to inform biological processes and treatment ...

Prognostic roles of cross-talk between peritumoral hepatocytes and stromal cells in hepatocellular carcinoma involving peritumoral VEGF-C, VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-3. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Peritumoral liver tissue could play a potential role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression and patient survival via angiogenesis- and lymphangiogensis-related factors.
