Infantile hemangiomas represent the most common tumor of endothelial cell (EC) origin, yet the mechanisms regulating hemangioma EC behavior are poorly understood. A new study by Jinnin et al. demonstrates that enhanced VEGFR2 signaling in hemangioma ECs is caused by suppression of NFAT (nuclear factor of activated T cells)-dependent VEGFR1 expression.
婴儿血管瘤是内皮细胞(EC)来源最常见的肿瘤,然而调节血管瘤内皮细胞行为的机制却知之甚少。Jinnin等人的一项新研究表明,血管瘤内皮细胞中VEGFR2信号增强是由NFAT(活化T细胞核因子)依赖性VEGFR1表达受抑制所致。
