Contact-inhibited chemotaxis in de novo and sprouting blood-vessel growth [PDF]
Blood vessels form either when dispersed endothelial cells (the cells lining the inner walls of fully-formed blood vessels) organize into a vessel network (vasculogenesis), or by sprouting or splitting of existing blood vessels (angiogenesis). Although they are closely related biologically, no current model explains both phenomena with a single ...

Vascular endothelial‐cadherin as a marker of endothelial injury in preclinical Alzheimer disease
Abstract Objective Endothelial dysfunction is an early and prevalent pathology in Alzheimer disease (AD). We here investigate the value of vascular endothelial‐cadherin (VEC) as a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) marker of endothelial injury in preclinical AD.

Metalloproteinases and their inhibitors in tumor angiogenesis [PDF]
AbstractAngiogenesis is the process by which new blood vessels are formed from preexisting vasculature. It is an essential feature of the female reproductive cycle, embryonic development and wound repair. Angiogenesis has also been identified as a causal or contributing factor in several pathologies, including cancer, where it is a rate‐limiting step ...

Trisubstituted pyrazolopyrimidines as novel angiogenesis inhibitors. [PDF]
Current inhibitors of angiogenesis comprise either therapeutic antibodies (e.g. bevacicumab binding to VEGF-A) or small molecular inhibitors of receptor tyrosin kinases like e.g. sunitinib, which inhibits PDGFR and VEGFR.

In silico identification of potential natural product inhibitors of human proteases key to SARS-CoV-2 infection [PDF]
Presently, there are no approved drugs or vaccines to treat COVID-19 which has spread to over 200 countries and is responsible for over 3,65,000 deaths worldwide. Recent studies have shown that two human proteases, TMPRSS2 and cathepsin L, play a key role in host cell entry of SARS-CoV-2.

Irsogladine is a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis [PDF]
We describe a novel inhibitor of angiogenesis, Irsogladine, an anti‐ulcer drug. Irsogladine inhibited plasminogen activator synthesis of, and tube formation by, human microvascular endothelial cells in type 1 collagen gel treated with an angiogenic growth factor, EGF.

The Angiogenic Balance and Its Implications in Cancer and Cardiovascular Diseases: An Overview
Angiogenesis is the process of developing new blood vessels from pre-existing ones. This review summarizes the main features of physiological and pathological angiogenesis and those of angiogenesis activation and inhibition.

Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors attenuate angiogenesis [PDF]
Donepezil {(RS)-2-[(1-benzyl-4-piperidyl)methyl]-5,6-dimethoxy-2,3-dihydroinden-1-one} is a reversible acetylcholinesterase inhibitor and used for treatment of patients with AD (Alzheimer's disease). Recent studies showed that treatment with donepezil reduced production of inflammatory cytokines in PBMCs (peripheral blood mononuclear cells).
