Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a highly specific mitogen for vascular
endothelial cells. Five VEGF isoforms are generated as a result of alternative splicing from a …

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)/vascular permeability factor is the prototype for a
growing family of dimeric growth factors, which exert their effects on vascular and lymphatic …

An understanding of the mechanisms regulating growth and differentiation of vascular
endothelial cells is very important for cardiovascular biology and medicine. Several potential …

The dependence of tumor growth on the development of a neovasculature is well-
established [1]. After a tumor grows beyond 100 mm to 200 mm in size, diffusion alone is no …

Angiogenesis is a process by which new blood vessels are formed from preexisting vessels.
New blood vessel formation by angiogenesis involves the degradation of extra-cellular …

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a highly specific mitogen for vascular
endothelial cells and an angiogenic factor that is structurally related to platelet derived …

VEGF signaling often represents a critical rate-limiting step in physiological angiogenesis.
The VEGF family comprises seven secreted glycoproteins that are designated VEGF-A …

Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) regulate blood and lymphatic vessel
development and homeostasis but also have profound effects on neural cells. VEGFs are …
