Vascular endothelial growth factor (VECF) is a 45kDa secreted peptide that has potent mitogenic activity specific for endothelial cells in vitro and the ability to induce a strong angiogenic response in vivo. In the present study, 24 h treatment with VEGF resulted in a stimulation of expression of t
## Abstract Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was immobilized on substrata in photoreactive gelatin to control the adhesion and growth of vascular endothelial cells. The gelatin and VEGF were mixed in water and cast on a polystyrene dish or a silaneβcoated glass plate. The surface was then
Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) has been typically considered to be an endothelial-specific growth factor. However, it was recently demonstrated that VEGF can interact with non endothelial cells. In this study, we tested whether vascular smooth muscles cells (VSMCs) can express VEGF recept
