  • Title: Vascular endothelial growth factor-A, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 and angiopoietin-2 expression in the mouse choroid plexuses.

    Journal: Brain Res; 2004 Jul 09; 1013(2):256-9. PubMed ID: 15193536.
    Abstract:
    In this study, for the first time, we investigated about the localization of VEGF-A, VEGFR-2 and Ang-2 in the choroid plexuses of the adult mouse by Western blot and immunohistochemistry. Results showed that VEGF-A stained epithelial cells, while anti-VEGFR-2 and -Ang-2 antibodies stained endothelial cells. These data suggest that Ang-2, converting blood vessels into a more plastic and immature phenotype, would provide more accessibility of VEGF-A to endothelial cells.
