Ample interest has been evoked in using placental angiogenesis as a target for the development of diagnosis tools and potential therapeutics for pregnancy complications based on the knowledge of placental angiogenesis in normal and aberrant pregnancies. Although these goals are still far from reach, one would expect that two complementary processes should be balanced for therapeutic angiogenesis to...
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF2), but not vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), upregulates endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) protein expression, at least partially, via activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 2/1 (ERK2/1) in ovine fetoplacental artery endothelial (oFPAE) cells. Herein we further investigated the temporal effects of FGF2 and VEGF on other signalling pathways...
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a key regulator for placental angiogenesis and vascular functions via activating two high affinity tyrosine–kinase receptors, VEGF receptor-1 (VEGFR-1) and -2 (VEGFR-2). Recently, a specific VEGF165 receptor, neuropilin-1 (NP-1), was also identified in endothelial cells and upon VEGF binding, NP-1, synergistically with VEGFR-2, enhances VEGF-induced cell...
