Selective upregulation of vascular endothelial growth factor receptors neuropilin‐1 and ‐2 in human neuroblastoma

Abstract

These results show for the first time that human neuroblastoma expresses NRP, and that NRP co-regulates VEGF angiogenic effect in human neuroblastoma. NRP might be a sensitive angiogenic measure of VEGF systems in neuroblastoma, particularly in its early stages.
