The purpose of the present study was to evaluate whether the synthesis of
PAF induced by
vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF ) might affect endothelial cell motility, microvascular permeability, and angiogenesis ... The neoangiogenesis and synthesis of
PAF induced by
VEGF were studied in vivo in a murine Matrigel model ... In vitro, it was found that
VEGF induced the synthesis of
PAF by HUVECs in a dose- and time dependent manner ... These results suggest that the synthesis of
PAF induced by
VEGF enhances endothelial cell migration and contributes to the angiogenic effect of VEGF in the in vivo Matrigel model

:
Since the phospholipid remodelling pathway enzymes ( CoA independent transacylase, CoA-IT ; phospholipase A2, PLA2 ; and lyso-PAF acetyltransferase, lyso-PAF-AT ) may participate in PAF synthesis, we assessed their contribution to
VEGF induced
PAF synthesis in bovine aortic EC ( BAEC ) and human umbilical vein EC ( HUVEC ) ... 3. A pretreatment with a CoA-IT and lyso-PAF-AT inhibitor ( Sanguinarin ; 500 nM ) blocked
VEGF induced
PAF synthesis by 95 %, a specific CoA-IT inhibitor ( SKF45905 ; 10 - 50 microM ) was without effect, confirming the crucial role of the PLA2 and lyso-PAF-AT

Regulation of
VEGF induced endothelial cell
PAF synthesis : role of p42/44 MAPK, p38 MAPK and PI3K pathways ... However, the intracellular events that regulate EC
PAF synthesis upon Flk-1
stimulation by
VEGF remain to be elucidated ... 2. Using specific inhibitors and Western blot analysis, we herein report that in bovine aortic endothelial cells ( BAEC ),
VEGF induces the synthesis of
PAF through the cascade activation of Flk-1 receptor, phospholipase Cgamma ( PLCgamma ), protein kinase C ( PKC ) and p42/44 mitogen activated protein kinases ( MAPK ) ... 3. Moreover, we demonstrate that
VEGF mediated
PAF synthesis requires the activation of p38 MAPK, likely by directing the conversion of lyso-PAF to PAF ... 4. Interestingly, we observed that
VEGF also promoted the activation of the phosphatidyl inositol-3-phosphate kinase ( PI3K ) pathway, and that its blockade
potentiated PAF synthesis following a VEGF treatment ... 5. Taken together, these results allow a better understanding of the intracellular events activated upon EC stimulation by VEGF, and shed a new light on the mechanisms by which
VEGF induces
PAF synthesis

:
To assess the contribution of NRP-1 to
VEGF-A mediated EC proliferation, migration, and
PAF synthesis, we used porcine aortic EC ( PAEC ) recombinantly expressing Flt-1, NRP-1, KDR or KDR and NRP-1 ... In contrast, stimulation of PAEC-Flt-1 and PAEC-NRP-1 with
VEGF-A or VEGF-C did not
induce proliferation, migration, or
PAF synthesis

(Hypoxia, Brain...) :
PAF increased the expression of
VEGF in astrocytes in time- and dose dependent manners ... To examine whether
platelet activating factor (PAF) induces the expression of
VEGF in human astrocytes, we stimulated cultured normal astrocytes with PAF and performed semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR ) or real-time quantitative PCR for VEGF mRNA and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay for VEGF protein ... After 24-h stimulation, 10 nM
PAF increased the levels of
VEGF protein in astrocyte conditioned medium by 1.3-fold ... When the cells were subjected to hypoxia, the
PAF induced production of
VEGF was enhanced by 6.7-fold as compared to the unstimulated cells incubated under normoxia ... Dexamethasone was found to inhibit the enhanced
VEGF production in
response to the stimulation with
PAF under hypoxia ... We conclude that
PAF induces
VEGF gene expression in human astrocytes, and the PAF induced increase in the expression of VEGF may modulate nervous tissue injury due to hypoxia

In addition, as
VEGF induces the synthesis of NO and
platelet activating factor (PAF) , we wanted to assess if the induction of PAF and NO is contributing to the synthesis of each other

Platelet activating factor (PAF) induces corneal neovascularization and
upregulates VEGF expression in endothelial cells
Marchand et al., J Cell Biochem 2006
:
Role of MSK1 in the signaling pathway leading to
VEGF mediated
PAF synthesis in endothelial cells ... We previously reported that VEGF mediated
PAF synthesis
involves the activation of
VEGF receptor-2/Neuropilin-1 complex, which is leading to the activation of p38 and p42/44 mitogen activated protein kinases ( MAPKs ) and group V secretory phospholipase A ( 2 ) ( sPLA ( 2 ) -V ) ... These results demonstrate the essential role of the C-terminal domain of MSK1 for its constitutive interaction with sPLA ( 2 ) -V, which appears essential to support
VEGF mediated
PAF synthesis

VEGF expression was correlated with decreased p53 activity

vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF )
increases vascular permeability through the synthesis of endothelial
platelet activating factor (PAF) , while others reported the contribution of nitric oxide ( NO )

We previously reported that
VEGF mediated
PAF synthesis involves the activation of the homodimeric tyrosine kinase receptor VEGFR-2/R-2, leading to the recruitment of p38 and p42/p44 mitogen activated protein kinases ( MAPKs ) and activation of secreted group V phospholipase A2 ( sPLA2-V ) ... In BAECs transfected with pcDNA vectors encoding mutated Y801F, Y1059F, Y1175F, or Y1214F VEGFR-2 cDNA, we observed a marked reduction of
VEGF mediated
PAF synthesis by 38 %, 46 %, 69 %, and 31 %, respectively, compared with BAECs transfected with pcDNA vector encoding VEGFR-2 cDNA ... Our data provide a novel insight as to the mechanisms by which
VEGF promotes
PAF synthesis
