متن کاملSelective 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 کاملBlockade of VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-2 Enhances Paclitaxel Sensitivity in Gastric Cancer Cells
PURPOSE Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) increases transcription of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene. Inhibition of VEGF abolishes VEGF mediated induction of HIF-1α. Recent reports suggested that HIF-1α also mediated the induction of class III β-tubulin (TUBB3) in hypoxia. TUBB3 confers resistance to taxanes. Inhibition of VEGF may decrease the expression of HIF-1α and TUB...
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...
متن کاملInteractions of VEGF isoforms with VEGFR-1, VEGFR-2, and neuropilin in vivo: a computational model of human skeletal muscle.
The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family of cytokines is involved in the maintenance of existing adult blood vessels as well as in angiogenesis, the sprouting of new vessels. To study the proangiogenic activation of VEGF receptors (VEGFRs) by VEGF family members in skeletal muscle, we develop a computational model of VEGF isoforms (VEGF(121), VEGF(165)), their cell surface receptors...
