Angiogenesis plays crucial roles in development and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Placenta growth factor (PLGF), belonging to vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family, is involved in angiogenesis associated with cancer. Soluble VEGF receptor-1 (sVEGFR1) has been thought to be an intrinsic negative regulator for PLGF. We investigated whether serum PLGF and serum sVEGFR1 ...
OBJECTIVE To compare the maternal serum concentrations of placental growth factor (PlGF)-1 and PlGF-2 in the first, second and third trimesters in normal pregnancies and in those complicated by pre-eclampsia (PE) or the delivery of small for gestational age (SGA) neonates after 37 weeks. METHODS Serum PlGF-1 and PlGF-2 were measured at 11-13, 20-24 and 30-34 weeks' gestation in 50 cases of PE...
Vascular functions of PlGF remain poorly understood and controversial. Here, we show that tumor cell-derived PlGF-1 and PlGF-2 displayed significant remodeling effects on the tumor vasculature, leading to a normalized vascular phenotype and improved functions against leakage. In two murine tumor models, that is, T241 fibrosarcoma and Lewis lung carcinoma, stable expression of PlGF-1 and PlGF-2 ...
To assess the diagnostic performance of angiogenic biomarkers in determining need for delivery seven days women with late preterm preeclampsia. In a prospective observational cohort study 36 maternity units across England and Wales, we studied accuracy placental growth factor (PlGF) sFlt-1 risk complications requiring (34+0 to 36+6 weeks' gestation) Angiogenic were measured using Quidel Roche (...
Placental growth factor (PlGF) is a member of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family and is involved in pathological angiogenesis associated with chronic liver diseases. However, the precise mechanisms underlying PlGF signalling contributing to liver fibrosis and angiogenesis remain largely unexplored. This study aimed to assess the effect of reducing PlGF expression using small i...
Placental growth factor (PlGF)-deficient (PlGF-/-) and wild-type mice were kept on a standard-fat or high-fat diet for 15 weeks. With the standard-fat diet, the body weights of PlGF-/- and wild-type mice were comparable, whereas the combined weight of subcutaneous and gonadal adipose tissues was lower in PlGF-/- mice (P = 0.02). With the high-fat diet, PlGF-/- mice had a lower body weight (P < ...
Placental growth factor (PlGF), a homolog of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), exerts pleiotropic functions in cancer by affecting tumor cells as well as endothelial and inflammatory cells. Moreover, PlGF expression correlates with tumor stage, recurrence, metastasis and patient outcome in different types of cancer. Recently, administrati...
P lacenta growth factor (PlGF) is a close homolog of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), shares receptors with VEGF, and stimulates angiogenesis (1). Intravitreous PlGF levels are elevated in proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) (2), but the relationship between PlGF levels and VEGF levels or clinical activity remains unclear. We attempted to ascertain whether intravitreous PlGF leve...
Targeting Placental Growth Factor/Neuropilin 1 Pathway Inhibits Growth and Spread of Medulloblastoma
Medulloblastoma is the most common pediatric malignant brain tumor. Although current therapies improve survival, these regimens are highly toxic and are associated with significant morbidity. Here, we report that placental growth factor (PlGF) is expressed in the majority of medulloblastomas, independent of their subtype. Moreover, high expression of PlGF receptor neuropilin 1 (Nrp1) correlates...
PURPOSE Placenta growth factor (PlGF) is a member of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family. PlGF is implicated in several pathologic processes, including the growth and spread of cancer and tumor angiogenesis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the expression and the clinical implications of PlGF in colorectal cancer. METHODS In order to ascertain the clinical significance o...
