The fibroblast growth factor (FGF) receptor of human umbilical vein-derived endothelial (HUE) cells has been identified by affinity labeling. It has an apparent molecular weight of 130,000. It binds both basic and acidic FGF, but not with epidermal growth factor, insulin, or transferrin. The lectin
Background: Basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-S), a potent angiogenic peptide, is known to be present in gonadotropes of the anterior pituitary parenchyma of rats and mice, and has been isolated from endothelial cells of many organs. Its localization within endothelial cells has not been determine
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a potent angiogenic factor with a unique specificity for vascular endothelial cells. In addition to its role in vasculogenesis and embryonic angiogenesis, VEGF is implicated in pathologic neovascularization associated with tumors and diabetic retinopathy.
