FGF2 — KDR

Pathways - manually collected, often from reviews:

• OpenBEL Selventa BEL large corpus: KDR → FGF2 (increases)
  Evidence: Both low and high MW FGF-2 isoforms show angiogenic activity in vivo and induce cell proliferation, chemotaxis, and uPA production in cultured endothelial cells (188). Also, FGF-2 was found to induce tube formation in collagen gels and to modulate integrin expression, gap junction intercellular communication and VEGF, Flk-1 and uPAR upregulation in vitro (31, 100).
