Journal ArticleDOI

Tissue-Engineered Lungs for in Vivo Implantation

TL;DR: Treating lungs from adult rats using a procedure that removes cellular components but leaves behind a scaffold of extracellular matrix suggests that repopulation of lung matrix is a viable strategy for lung regeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI

VEGF Receptor 2 Endocytic Trafficking Regulates Arterial Morphogenesis

TL;DR: It is concluded that activation of the VEGF-mediated arterial morphogenesis cascade requires phosphorylation of the Y(1175) site that is dependent on trafficking of internalized VEGFR2 away from the plasma membrane via a synectin-myosin-VI complex.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Neuropilin 1 Cytoplasmic Domain Is Required for VEGF-A-Dependent Arteriogenesis

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the N RP1 cytoplasmic domain promotes VEGFR2 trafficking in a PDZ-dependent manner to regulate arteriogenic ERK signaling and establish a role for NRP1 in VEGF-A signaling during vascular morphogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

FGF-dependent regulation of VEGF receptor 2 expression in mice.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated VEGF signaling in ECs with disrupted FGF signaling in vitro and in vivo and found that mice with defective FGF signalling exhibited loss of vascular integrity and reduced vascular morphogenesis.
