Journal ArticleDOI

Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-1 modulates vascular endothelial growth factor-mediated angiogenesis via nitric oxide

TL;DR: Blockade of VEGFR-1 increased VEGF-mediated HUVEC proliferation that was inhibited by NO donors, and potentiated by NO synthase inhibitors, which seems to be a molecular switch for endothelial cell differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Colocalisation of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and Its Flt-1 Receptor in Human Placenta

TL;DR: Results suggest that VEGF in addition to acting as an autocrine mitogen for trophoblast proliferation may also function as a paracrine mediator of vascular tone by releasing vasorelaxants from trophoblasts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor localization and activation in human trophoblast and choriocarcinoma cells.

TL;DR: This study is the first demonstration of the presence of flt on non-endothelial cells in vivo and suggests a role for VEGF in the growth and differentiation of cytotrophoblast at implantation.
Journal Article

Cardiac dysfunction and cell damage across clinical stages of severity in growth-restricted fetuses - art. no. 254.e1

TL;DR: IUGR fetuses showed signs of cardiac dysfunction from early stages with the progression of fetal compromise, together with the appearance of biochemical signs of cell damage.
