Associations of VEGFA with chemical compounds

  • In a differential display screening for genes regulated by retinoic acid in the developing chick limb bud, we have isolated a novel gene, termed rigf, retinoic-acid induced growth factor, that encodes a protein belonging to the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family [20].
  • We also demonstrated that VEGF was involved in CHO-ET-1-mediated angiogenesis, by using a specific inhibitor of VEGF tyrosine kinase receptor activity (PTK787/ZK 222584), which abolished CHO-ET-1 nodule formation and CAM neovascularization [21].
  • CONCLUSIONS: The findings suggest that the induction of angiogenesis and VEGF expression by ethanol represents an important mechanism of cancer progression associated with alcoholic beverage consumption [13].
  • PGE2 dose-dependently inhibited the expression of the differentiation-related genes, colX, VEGF, MMP-13, and alkaline phosphatase gene, and enzyme activity with significant effects at concentrations as low as 10(-10) M [22].
  • Apigenin inhibits tumor angiogenesis through decreasing HIF-1{alpha} and VEGF expression [12].
 

Regulatory relationships of VEGFA

  • These observations are in accordance with the proposal that Ang-2 induces angiogenesis in the presence of VEGF and vascular regression in its absence [23].
