Distinct Characteristics of VEGF‐D and VEGF‐C to Predict Mortality in Patients With Suspected or Known Coronary Artery Disease

Distinct Characteristics of VEGF‐D and VEGF‐C to Predict Mortality in Patients With Suspected or Known Coronary Artery Disease

Background VEGF‐D (vascular endothelial growth factor D) and VEGF‐C are secreted glycoproteins that can induce lymphangiogenesis and angiogenesis. They exhibit structural homology but have differential receptor binding and regulatory mechanisms. We recently demonstrated that the serum VEGF‐C level i...
