Lens-Specific VEGF-A Expression Induces Angioblast Migration and Proliferation and Stimulates Angiogenic Remodeling

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a secreted mitogen which specifically stimulates proliferation of vascular endothelial cells in vitro and in vivo.

description Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a secreted mitogen which specifically stimulates proliferation of vascular endothelial cells in vitro and in vivo. Its expression pattern is consistent with it being an important regulator of vasculogenesis and angiogenesis, and targeted disruption of VEGF-A has demonstrated that it is essential for vascular development. To determine if VEGF-A was sufficient to alter vascularization in the eye we generated transgenic mice which express human VEGF-A165 specifically in the lens. Expression of transgenic VEGF-A led to excessive proliferation and accumulation of disorganized angioblasts and endothelial cells around the lens. The results support the hypothesis that VEGF-A can initiate the process of vascularization by stimulating chemoattraction and proliferation of angioblasts and endothelial cells and that VEGF-A expression can stimulate angiogenic remodeling. However, VEGF-A alone was not sufficient to direct blood vessel organization or maturation.
