Alternative Splicing of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF)-R1 (FLT-1) pre-mRNA Is Important for the Regulation of VEGF Activity
1999-04-01
Abstract excerpt
Angiogenesis is essential for normal mammalian development and is controlled by the local balance of pro- and antiangiogenic factors. Here we describe a novel mouse cDNA sequence encoding sFLT-1 that is a potent antagonist to vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and show for the first time its in vivo production. In situ hybridization and Northern blot analysis with probes specific for sFLT-1 or FLT-1 showed...
