Journal Article
Bates, D. O., Hinton, D. R., Harper, S. J., Schumacher, V. A., Saleem, M. A., Nowak, D. G., …Ladomery, M. (2011). WT1 Mutants Reveal SRPK1 to Be a Downstream Angiogenesis Target by Altering VEGF Splicing. Cancer Cell, 20(6), 768-780. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ccr.2011.10.016

Angiogenesis is regulated by the balance of proangiogenic VEGF 165 and antiangiogenic VEGF 165b splice isoforms. Mutations in WT1, the Wilms' tumor suppressor gene, suppress VEGF 165b and cause abnormal gonadogenesis, renal failure, and Wilms' tumors...
