The 165-amino acid form of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF165) is a mitogen for
vascular endothelial cells and a potent angiogenic factor. Expression of a chimeric receptor …

Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) are key regulators of permeability. The
principal evidence behind how they increase vascular permeability in vivo and in vitro and …

Human vascular endothelial growth factor-D (VEGF-D) binds and activates VEGFR-2 and
VEGFR-3, receptors expressed on vascular and lymphatic endothelial cells. As VEGFR-2 …

Activation of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) plays a critical role in
vasculogenesis and angiogenesis. However, the mechanism by which VEGFR-2 activation …

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) represents a growth factor with important pro-
angiogenic activity, having a mitogenic and an anti-apoptotic effect on endothelial cells …

FGF-2 and VEGF are potent angiogenesis inducers in vivo and in vitro. Here we show that
FGF-2 induces VEGF expression in vascular endothelial cells through autocrine and …

Vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF-C) recently has been described to be a
relatively specific growth factor for the lymphatic vascular system. Here we report that ectopic …

purpose. Extracellular matrix degradation is associated with neovascularization in diabetic
retinas. Fibronectin fragments (Fn-fs) are generated during vascular remodeling. The effects …

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) promotes vascular permeability (VP) and
neovascularization, and is required for development. We find that VEGF-stimulated Src …

In this study we provide a characterization of the fibronectin (FN) binding to endothelial cells
(EC), and we identify the FN binding site on these cells. 125I-FN binding to EC in …
