## Abstract VEGF and TGFβΞ²1 induce angiogenesis but have opposing effects on endothelial cells. VEGF protects endothelial cells from apoptosis; TGFβΞ²1 induces apoptosis. We have previously shown that VEGF/VEGF receptorβ2 (VEGFR2) signaling mediates TGFβΞ²1 induction of apoptosis. This finding raised

During pregnancy, uterine vasculature of live-bearing lizards proliferates to support embryonic growth and development. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is the most potent of a suite of growth factors responsible for uterine vascularization in mammals. We have sequenced VEGF mRNA transcript
Vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C) is a recently characterized member of the VEGF family of angiogenic polypeptides. We demonstrate here that VEGF-C is angiogenic in vitro when added to bovine aortic or lymphatic endothelial (BAE and BLE) cells but has little or no effect on bovine microv
## Abstract Recent studies have shown that several angiogenic growth factors are produced and secreted by normal endocrine cells and are increased in pathological states of endocrine glands, including inflammation, hyperplasia, and neoplasia. Expression of corresponding receptors on epithelial cell
Angiogenesis is a possible target in the treatment of human gliomas. To evaluate the role of 3 growth factors, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), in the angiogenic cascade, we determined their levels
