| 1 | The aim of the present study was to investigate the presence of VEGF and TGF-beta1 in peritoneal effluents of patients undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis who are being treated with glucose-containing dialysis solutions in relation to parameters of peritoneal transport. | Glucose | vascular endothelial growth factor A | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | In conclusion, we found evidence for the local production of both VEGF and TGF-beta1 in the peritoneal membrane of patients undergoing long-term peritoneal dialysis with glucose-based dialysate solutions. | Glucose | vascular endothelial growth factor A | Homo sapiens |
| 3 | The analogy with VEGF in diabetic retinopathy suggests a pathogenetic role of high dialysate glucose concentrations in the development of these alterations in the peritoneal membrane. | Glucose | vascular endothelial growth factor A | Homo sapiens |
