Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a potent angiogenic polypeptide that activates 2 distinct high-affinity tyrosine kinase receptors, flk-1/KDR and flt-1. In the present study, we characterized the expression of VEGF and its receptors flk-1/KDR and flt-1 in the normal human pancreas and in

We previously demonstrated an association between vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), vessel counts and metastasis in human colon cancer specimens. Mutant p53 has been implicated in the regulation of angiogenesis. Immunohistochemical detection of p53 protein has been associated with p53 gene
## Abstract Previous studies have indicated that lymphangiogenesis in solid tumors is associated with lymphatic metastasis. Overexpression of Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)βC plays a major role in lymphangiogenesis in cancers. In the present study, DNA methylation and expression of the _
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is thought to take an important role in tumor angiogenesis. The present study examined VEGF expression immunohistochemically in hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) in various histological grades and sizes. In HCCs that were composed of cancerous tissues of sing
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND It was recently shown that neuropilinβ1 (NRPβ1), which was described originally as a receptor for the semaphorins/collapsins (ligands involved in neuronal guidance), is a coreceptor for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and increases the affinity of specific isofo
