Expression of vascular permeability factor (VPF/VEGF) is altered in many glomerular diseases.

Vascular permeability factor (VPF), also known as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), is a potent enhancer of microvascular permeability and a selective endothelial cell growth factor. In normal human kidney, VPF/VEGF mRNA and protein are strongly expressed by visceral glomerular epithelial cells, and VPF/VEGF may be an important regulator of glomerular endothelial cell function. This st...

Altered Expression of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) in Glioma

EGFR is a key molecule in cancer cells. EGFR signaling was shown to promote tumor cell proliferation and survival, invasion and angiogenesis and mediate resistance to treatment, including ionizing radiation in preclinical models. We extracted proteins from astrocytoma (III and IV) oligodendroglioma(IV) tumors and normal brain tissues and then evaluated the protein purity by Bradford test ...

Factor/Vascular Permeability Factor in Mouse Ascites Tumors Significant Expression of Vascular Endothelial Growth

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), also known as vascular permeability factor, is believed to be a potent mediator of peritoneal fluid accumulation and angiogenesis and of tumor growth in ascites tumor. Such roles, however, have not been generally established because of insufficient quantitative and systemic analyses. To address this, we exam ined the expression of VEGF in 13 mouse asci...
