TL;DR: Hyperglycemic levels of glucose may strongly affect F GF-2 structure and impair its angiogenic features, and endogenous glycated-FGF-2 is present in diabetic mice, indicating a novel pathogenetic mechanism underlying angiogenesis defects in DM.

Endocrine gland derived-VEGF is down-regulated in human pituitary adenoma.
TL;DR: A down-regulation of EG-VEGF expression in human pituitary adenoma is demonstrated for the first time, suggesting an impaired function of the neoplastic cells in terms of hormone release in the blood stream, as a consequence of impaired tumor angiogenesis in the tumor.

Angiogenic effects of erythropoietin.
TL;DR: Erythropoietin may be considered as an endogenous stimulator of vessel growth during tumor progression, and inhibition of Epo signaling might be suggested as a new antiangiogenic therapeutic approach.

The controversial role of placental growth factor in tumor growth.
TL;DR: The most relevant literature data concerning the significance of placental growth factor in tumor growth is summarized and the most relevant data concerning this still unsolved important question is summarized.

TL;DR: These studies suggest that the capacity for water flow across the membrane of MECs may be altered in pSS, identifying AQP4 as a promising new therapeutic agent to treat xerostomia.
