NEW YORK, June 25, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- There is now much evidence that VEGFR-2 is the major mediator of VEGF-driven responses in endothelial cells and it is considered to be a crucial signal transducer in both physiologic and pathologic angiogenesis. The binding of VEGF to VEGFR-2 leads to a cascade of different signaling pathways, resulting in the up-regulation of genes involved in mediating the proliferation and migration of endothelial cells and promoting their survival and vascular permeability.
There are today 229 companies plus partners developing 304 VEGF signaling pathway targeting drugs in 1337 developmental projects in cancer. In addition, there are 3 suspended drugs and the accumulated number of ceased drugs over the last years amount to another 146 drugs. Vegf Signaling Pathway In Cancer Drug Pipeline Update lists all drugs and gives you a progress analysis on each one of them. Identified drugs are linked to 159 different targets. All included targets have been cross-referenced for the presence of mutations associated with human cancer. To date 157 out of the 158 studied drug targets so far have been recorded with somatic mutations. The software application lets you narrow in on these mutations and links out to the mutational analysis for each of the drug targets for detailed information. All drugs targets are further categorized on in the software application by 35 classifications of molecular function and with pathway referrals to BioCarta, KEGG, NCI-Nature and NetPath.
