Does vascular endothelial growth factor induce MEF2C and MEF2-dependent activity in endothelial cells?
These results implicate VEGF as a key regulator of MEF2C and suggest that MEF2 may be an important mediator of VEGF in endothelial cells.
Our study shows poor reproducibility of the positive samples for the Platelia™ Aspergillus test. These results reinforce the need to evaluate a second sample and to consider simultaneously repeating the first positive serum to enhance the diagnosis of invasive fungal infection.
