TL;DR: It is reported that placental growth factor (PGF) regulates inter- and intramolecular cross talk between the VEGF RTKs Flt1 and Flk1, which is likely to have therapeutic implications, as treatment with VegF/PGF heterodimer or a combination of VEGf plus PGF increased ischemic myocardial angiogenesis in a mouse model that was refractory to V EGF alone.

TL;DR: Scientists working on the response of bacteria to antibiotics define antibiotic persistence and provide practical guidance on how to study bacterial persister cells, and provide a guide to measuring persistence.

TL;DR: VEGF‐E is thus a potent angiogenic factor selectively binding to VEGF receptor‐2 alone can efficiently stimulate angiogenesis, and strongly indicates that activation of V EGF receptor-2 aloneCan efficiently stimulateAngiogenesis.

TL;DR: The data establish that human osteoblasts respond to VEGF-A, suggesting a functional role for this growth factor in bone formation and remodeling.

TL;DR: The first demonstration of conjugal plasmid transfer from Escherichia coli to Bartonella henselae is reported and transposons delivered on suicide plasmids by conjugation showed transpositional insertion into random chromosomal sites.
