The 16K Fragment of Prolactin Specifically Inhibits Basal or Fibroblast Growth Factor Stimulated Growth of Capillary Endothelial Cells
Intact 23 kilodalton (kDa), rat PRL is enzymatically cleaved in many target tissues to a 16 kDa (16K PRL) and an 8 kDa fragment. After reduction of an internal disulfide bond th...
Peptide growth factors in the intestine
A continuously increasing number of regulatory peptides has been demonstrated to be expressed in the intestine and to modulate several functional properties of various intestina...
Microvessel count and cerebrospinal fluid basic fibroblast growth factor in children with brain tumours
Tumour growth is angiogenesis-dependent; brain tumours have more intense neovascularisation than other tumours and produce basic fibroblast growth factor, a potent angiogenic me...
Distinct patterns of expression of fibroblast growth factors and their receptors in human atheroma and nonatherosclerotic arteries. Association of acidic FGF with plaque microvessels and macrophages.
Because fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) modulate important functions of endothelial cells (EC) and smooth muscle cells (SMC), we studied FGF expression in human vascular cells ...
The 16-kilodalton N-terminal fragment of human prolactin is a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis.
The formation of a new blood supply, angiogenesis, is an essential component of carcinogenesis and unrestricted tumor growth. A substance capable of inhibiting angiogenesis woul...
