Selective imaging of VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-2 receptors using 89Zr-labeled single-chain VEGF mutants
Vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF) acts via two vascular endothelial growth factor receptors VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-2 that play important and distinct roles in tumor biology. We reasoned that selective imaging of these receptors could provide unique information for diagnostics and for monitoring and optimizing responses to anti-cancer therapy, including antiangiogenic therapy. Herein, we re...
متن کاملGanglioside GM3 inhibits VEGF/VEGFR-2-mediated angiogenesis: direct interaction of GM3 with VEGFR-2.
Angiogenesis is associated with growth, invasion, and metastasis of human solid tumors. Aberrant activation of endothelial cells and induction of microvascular permeability by a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) signaling pathway is observed in pathological angiogenesis including tumor, wound healing, arthritis, psoriasis, diabetic retinopathy, and others. Here, we ...
متن کاملClinicopathological correlation and prognostic significance of VEGF-A, VEGF-C, VEGFR-2 and VEGFR-3 expression in colorectal cancer.
BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common type of cancer and the fourth most frequent cause of cancer death. Literature indicates that vascular endothelial growth factor is a predominant angiogenic factor and that angiogenesis plays an important role in the progression of CRC. PATIENTS AND METHODS The present series consisted of tissue samples obtained from 672 patients who ...
متن کاملModulation of VEGFR-2-mediated endothelial-cell activity by VEGF-C/VEGFR-3.
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor 3 (VEGFR-3), a receptor for VEGF-C, was shown to be essential for angiogenesis as well as for lymphangiogenesis. Targeted disruption of the VEGFR-3 gene in mice and our previous study using an antagonistic monoclonal antibody (MoAb) for VEGFR-3 suggested that VEGF-C/VEGFR-3 signals might be involved in the maintenance of vascular integrity. In ...
متن کاملConstitutive expression of VEGF, VEGFR-1, and VEGFR-2 in normal eyes.
PURPOSE The expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its high-affinity receptors VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-2 was investigated in normal eyes. METHODS Monkey and rat eyes were surgically removed in animals under deep anesthesia and immediately prepared for study. Ocular VEGF, VEGFR-1, and VEGFR-2 expression was studied using a combination of in situ hybridization, northern blot anal...
