Example sentences for: kdr
How can you use “kdr” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The identification of VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-2 (KDR) was consistent with the observation that the stimulation of ECs with VEGF increases the expression of VEGFR-2, promoting myocardial revascularization [ 22 ] . We also detected the cell adhesion molecules VCAM-1, VE-Cadherin, and the α 2 integrin subunit, all known regulators of angiogenesis.
EC, endothelial cell; MMP, matrix metalloproteinases; 3D, three-dimensional; KDR, kinase domain receptor; SSHDD, suppression subtractive hybridization followed by differential display; VE-cadherin, vascular endothelial-cadherin; PMA, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate; VEGF, vascular endothelial growth factor; bFGF, basic fibroblast growth factor.
Consistent with previous reports, the expression of KDR/VEGFR-2 increased by ~2.
Western blot analysis revealed that VEGF and PMA, but not bFGF, induced the expression of KDR, Flt-1, and the α 2 integrin subunit at 48 hr (Fig.
The expression of 5 known regulators of angiogenesis, KDR and α 2 integrin, VE-cadherin, MMP1, and MMP2, as well as 11 candidate genes (Figs.
