Aging and Orchidectomy Modulate Expression of VEGF Receptors (Flt-1 and Flk-1) on Corpus Cavernosum of the Rat

: Aging and hypogonadic states are known risk factors for erectile dysfunction (ED), contributing together to vascular damage of penile tissue. In the present study, VEGF‐specific membrane receptor (VEGFR‐1/Flt‐1 and VEGFR‐2/Flk‐1) expression was studied by confocal immunofluorescence in the corpus...
