## Abstract Investigations over the last decade have established the essential role of growth factors and their receptors during angiogenesis. The biological significance of VEGF, EGF, and bFGF is mediated by their receptors, which belong to the family of tyrosine kinase receptors: Fltโ1 (VEGFRโ1),
To examine the role of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) in the in vivo regulation of Schwann cell proliferation, steady-state levels of mRNAs encoding PDGF A and B chains, and PDGF a and p receptors were measured in immature and adult rat sciatic nerves and in cultured rat Schwann cells. PDGF B
Mature blood cells are derived from haemopoietic stem cells which grow and proliferate to give rise to progenitor cells more restricted in their proliferation and differentiation capacity. These in turn give rise to cells belonging to any of the haemopoietic lineages. The haemopoietic growth factors
