Alterations in the biological activity of molecules under stress conditions have not been documented as widely literature yet. This study was designed to reveal functional impacts various oxidation on a model mAb, commercial anti-VEGF IgG molecule. The responses antigen binding, cell proliferation, FcRn receptors, and C1q which rarely appear current literature, were investigated. authors report...

  Background and Objective: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptors (VEGF-R1 and R2) are major regulators of angiogenesis. This study was designed to assess serum levels of VEGF and VEGF-R1 and their prognostic significance in newly diagnosed childhood acute leukemia. Materials and Methods: For this purpose, VEGF and VEGF-R1 were determined using enzyme linked immuno-sorba...

background and objective: vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) and its receptors (vegf-r1 and r2) are major regulators of angiogenesis. this study was designed to assess serum levels of vegf and vegf-r1 and their prognostic significance in newly diagnosed childhood acute leukemia. materials and methods: for this purpose, vegf and vegf-r1 were determined using enzyme linked immuno-sorbant a...

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which is known to have at least five isoforms and four receptors, is integral to tumor-induced neovascularization. In order to determine whether VEGF signaling is modulated in the development of cartilaginous tumors, we analyzed osteochondrogenic tumors for the expression of VEGF isoforms and VEGF receptors using the reverse transcription-polymerase ch...

The human VEGF family consists of VEGF (VEGF-A), VEGF-B, VEGF-C, VEGF-D, and placental growth factor (PlGF). The VEGF family of receptors consists of three protein-tyrosine kinases (VEGFR1, VEGFR2, and VEGFR3) and two non-protein kinase co-receptors (neuropilin-1 and neuropilin-2). These components participate in new blood vessel formation from angioblasts (vasculogenesis) and new blood vessel ...

BACKGROUND Neuropathic pain is a type of chronic pain that results from dysfunctions of the somatosensory nerve system. This study was aimed to investigate the effect of mTOR/VEGF signaling pathway on neuropathic pain and the regulation mechanisms of miR-183 on AMPA Receptors through mTOR/VEGF signaling pathway. METHODS Chronic compress injury (CCI) model was constructed in the current study,...

INTRODUCTION Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is expressed in osteoarthritic articular cartilage. However, the pattern of VEGF expression throughout the whole life cycle of articular cartilage is not well elucidated. The aim of the study was to investigate the spatiotemporal expression of VEGF and its receptors, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-1 (VEGFR1) and vascular endoth...
