Computational modeling of interacting VEGF and soluble VEGF receptor concentration gradients

Experimental data indicates that soluble VEGF receptor 1 (sFlt-1) modulates the guidance cues provided to sprouting blood vessels by vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF). To better delineate the role of sFlt-1 in VEGF signaling, we have developed an experimentally-based computational model....
