The vascular system transmits and distributes hematopoietic cells, nutrients, gases and chemical mediators of angiogenesis, and participates in tumor development by providing oxygen and nutrients to cancer cells, promoting the formation of new vessels, which stimulate cancer growth and metastasis. Platelets are produced by hematopoietic cells in the bone marrow and play a role in angiogen…
VASP (vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein) and Zyxin are actin regulatory proteins that are located at cell-cell junctions. Zyxin directs actin assembly by recruiting VASP to specific sites of adhesion. The phosphorylation of VASP and Zyxin modifies its activity in cell adhesion. VASP and Zyxin act as a protein complex involved in the signal transduction for actin polymerization, in the…
