## 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 (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
The autocrine motility factor (AMF) is known as a cytokine regulating tumor cells motility via AMF receptor (AMFR) and promotes their metastasis. Recently, AMFRs have been found on the surface of host cells and it was showed that AMF possibly affects them. The signaling of AMF-AMFR in the host endot
The binding of [ 125 I]-factor Xa to human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) monolayers was studied. At 7ΠC, [ 125 I]-factor Xa bound to a single class of binding sites with a dissociation constant value of 6.6 { 0.8 nM and a binding site density of 57,460 { 5,200 sites/cell (n Γ 3). Associati
Various polypeptide growth factors, culture substrates, basal media, sera and further supplements were assayed for improvement of growth of human vascular endothelial cells from umbilical cord veins. The resulting optimized medium consisted of gelatinized culture substrates, a mixture (1:1) of Iscov
