Transcriptional Regulation of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor C by Oxidative and Thermal Stress Is Mediated by Lens Epithelium-Derived Growth Factor/p75
Vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF-C) plays a critical role in tumor lymphangiogenesis and lymph node metastasis. We report here that VEGF-C expression is regulated by microenvironmental stress including hyperthermia and oxidative stress. Furthermore, we show that this stress response is me...
