Abstract excerpt
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) have been shown to synergistically increase tissue factor (TF) expression in endothelial cells; however, the role of the VEGF receptors (KDR, Flt-1, and neuropilin) in this process is unclear. Here we report that VEGF binding to the KDR receptor is necessary and sufficient for the potentiation of TNF-induced TF expression in...
