Immune Response in Ovarian Cancer: How Is the Immune System Involved in Prognosis and Therapy: Potential for Treatment Utilization
Figure 1
VEGF exerts its signalling effect via its receptor VEGFR. VEGF, mainly the VGEFA isoform exerts its effects via binding its receptor VEGFR (mainly VEGFR2). It is a powerful angiogenic factor that holds a pivotal role in tumor progress and metastasis. It comprises an attractive target for possible agents that will block its function and therefore enhance patients’ survival. ID: Intracellular domain, ED: extracellular domain, TD: Transmembrane domain.
