VEGF family of ligands and receptors is crucial for vascular development and neovascularization in physiological and pathological processes in both embryo and adult. VEGFR-2 is a high-affinity receptor for VEGF-A. Activated VEGFR-2 can activate p38 MAPK, PI3K reg class IA/ ...

The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family of ligands and receptors is crucial for vascular development and neovascularization in physiological and pathological processes in both embryo and adult [1]. VEGFs denote a family of homodimeric glycoproteins that currently ...

Endothelin receptor type B (EDNRB) belongs to the guanine nucleotide binding protein (G-protein) coupled receptor family. Endothelin-1 is most investigated physiological ligand of EDNRB [1]. EDNRB binds to many types of the G-proteins but the ...

Sp1 transcription factor (SP1) is a transcription factor involved in gene expression in the early development of an organism. It belongs to the Sp/KLF family of transcription factors. The SP1 transcription factor contains a zinc finger protein motif, by which it binds directly to DNA ...
