Vascular Endothelial Cell Growth Factors Promote the In Vitro Development of Rat Photoreceptor Cells

We have identified and characterized a novel trophic effect of vascular endothelial cell growth factor (VEGF) on photoreceptor cells. Treatment of retinal cultures, derived from postnatal day 1 (P1) rats, with VEGF-2 resulted in a dose- and time-dependent increase in the level of rhodopsin protein,...
