摘要
Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) regulate vascular development, angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis by binding to a number of receptors. VEGFR-I is required for the recruitment of haematopoietic stein cells and the migration of monocytes and macrophages, VEGFR-2 regulates vascular endothelial function and VEGFR-3 regulates lymphatic endothelial cell function. Over the last decade, considerable progress has been made in delineating the VEGFR-2 specific intracellular signalling cascades leading to proliferation, migration, survival and increased permeability, each of which contributes to the angiogenic response. Furthermore, therapeutic inhibition of VEGFR-2 action is now having an impact in the clinic for the treatment of a number of diseases. (c) 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
