Comparison of expression patterns for placenta growth factor, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), VEGF-B and VEGF-C in the human placenta throughout gestation
1 Dec 1998
Abstract excerpt
Angiogenesis and vascular transformation are important processes in the normal development of the placenta. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a potent angiogenic growth factor and is thought to be important for placental development. Recently several new members of this family have been described. In this study we used in situ hybridisation to localise which cells in the placenta expressed mRNA for...
