title: Signaling from across the way: transactivation of VEGF receptors by HSPGs.
abstract: Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) influence the signaling of many growth factors, and recent work shows that they can promote VEGF signaling in trans from the surface of an adjacent cell. This mode of signaling also alters the activation state and internalization of VEGF receptors.
