VEGF stimulation induces axon branching by promoting the growth of newly formed branches without affecting filopodia formation. Loss-of-functional VEGFR2 also results in increased axon branching, but in this case from an increased number of filopodia and enhanced growth rate. However, in the loss of function situation, the generated branches are shorter and non-functional.
